BEYOND WORKERS COMPENSATION

With over 30 years of practice in the industry, Roddy, Leahy, Guill & Zima, Ltd. is recognized as one of the premier Workers’ Compensation firms in Illinois. Through our years of experience, we have recognized that the needs of our clients, both employers and insurers, extend beyond the boundaries of practice before the Industrial Commission. In response to these needs, our practice has grown over the years to encompass practice areas that are ancillary and related to Workers’ Compensation. For example, we have attorneys who have handled literally thousands of unemployment cases before the Illinois Department of Employment Security. Our expertise in Workers’ Compensation has naturally blossomed into a substantial subrogation practice as our clients seek to recoup Workers’ Compensation payments from liable third parties. Roddy, Leahy, Guill & Zima, Ltd. has also developed a practice group devoted almost exclusively to the defense of 1(b) claims as our clients’ insureds are brought into third-party claims. Indeed, our third-party practice group has considerable expertise in the defense of 1(b) claims and intricacies and pitfalls posed by the prevailing case law. Our clients’ needs have spawned an emerging and ever growing practice. Our areas of expertise include:

– Unemployment cases
– Subrogation
– Third party defense
– Coverage
– Construction litigation
– Transportation litigation
– Premises liability
– Automobile liability
– Medical malpractice
– Product Liability
