Understanding the Chicago Workers’ Compensation Court System

If you’ve been injured on the job in Chicago, your case will likely be handled through the Illinois Workers’ Compensation Commission (IWCC). The IWCC is responsible for resolving disputes between injured workers and employers/insurers.

Key Courthouses for Workers’ Compensation in Chicago

Illinois Workers’ Compensation Commission (IWCC) Chicago Office
Address: 69 W. Washington Street, 8th Floor, Chicago, IL 60602
Located in the heart of the Loop, this is the primary venue where workers’ compensation hearings take place for Chicago residents.

Daley Center (Richard J. Daley Center)
Address: 50 W. Washington Street, Chicago, IL 60602

Although primarily a civil courthouse, the Daley Center occasionally becomes involved in workers’ compensation matters that require judicial review following IWCC decisions.

What to Expect

Hearings at the IWCC are overseen by arbitrators, not traditional judges.

Injured workers must file a Form IC01 – Application for Adjustment of Claim within three years of the injury or two years from the last payment of compensation, whichever is later.

Arbitrators conduct hearings and issue decisions; appeals can move to a panel of commissioners and, if needed, to the Circuit Court of Cook County for judicial review.

Having an experienced Chicago workers’ compensation lawyer like Kevin A. Moore can ensure your claim is filed correctly and represented effectively at every level of review.
