Neck/Back Injuries

Skilled Workers' Compensation Attorneys

An accident on the job can result in serious, life-altering consequences. Severe back and neck injuries may prevent you from ever returning to work, and even seemingly minor neck or back injuries can result in expensive medical bills and serious changes to your daily routines.

The attorneys of Bonifield & Rosenstengel have more than 35 years of experience representing people who have suffered injuries in Illinois and Missouri. From offices in Belleville, we provide skilled representation for personal injury and workers compensation claims.

Contact our work comp attorneys today to schedule a free consultation to discuss your neck or back injury.

In addition to having extensive legal experience, our attorneys have practical experience in many of the occupations of our clients. Prior to beginning their legal careers, our attorneys worked in the construction and farming industries and as private investigators for law firms. Jerry Bonifield is currently a member of the National Association of Railroad Safety Consultants and Investigators.

Neck and back injuries may be caused by a specific traumatic lifting incident or by accumulated damage done over time. In either case, the ultimate injuries may include painful herniated discs and muscle strain, resulting in sharp pains and limited mobility. You may be required to undergo fusion surgery or disc replacement surgery, resulting in a lengthy recovery period.

Insurance companies often seek to settle back and neck injury claims quickly, despite the fact that the full consequences of your injury may not be known for quite a while. Protect yourself. Don't accept a settlement before your treatment is complete and you fully understand the effect your injury will have on your life and your ability to work.

Before you speak to the insurance companies or agree to a workers' compensation settlement, speak with an experienced injury lawyer. Contact us today to schedule your free initial consultation.
