of AMA impairment ratings to the 
myths and pitfalls of claims manage­
ment, and the basics of temporary 
total and temporary partial disability 
benefits including how to handle 
difficult situations from a defense 
standpoint. With the addition of the 
former OKGC practice groups, we 
now have more knowledge to share 
with Illinois Chamber members. 
	
IFMK has added teams of attor­
neys with experience and recognized 
practices in Employment Law De­
fense, Civil Litigation, and Workers’ 
Compensation.  The Chamber’s for­
mal and informal gatherings, meet­
ings, and extensive resources help us 
to learn from one another, and better 
serve our expanding array of clients 
in both business and public entity 
sectors. We appreciate the Chamber 
for its efforts to highlight and sup­
port businesses and industries of all 
sizes and sectors. We also rely on the 
Chamber to provide and share in­
formation about state legislation and 
initiatives that impact our business 
and our clients’ businesses so that 
we can timely inform our clients and 
provide a voice for our clients in the 
legislative process as we have done 
in the past. 
WHAT ARE IFMK’S CORE 
VALUES?
At IFMK Law, we believe that the 
best defense starts with an under­
standing of the facts of each case and 
early recognition of risk. IFMK attor­
neys work with our clients to for­
mulate an appropriate strategy that 
considers the facts, medical issues, 
legal issues, and the particulars of 
the geographic locale and the courts 
and administrative agencies involved. 
Our core values remind us that we do 
not just practice law, we also engage 
with varying stakeholders in every 
case. If our clients need legal help 
for their business or public entity, we 
are available to receive inquiries and 
render legal opinions regardless of 
whether the cases have been formally 
referred for defense.   
	
In some cases, an aggressive re­
sponse leading to litigation will be in 
our clients’ best interest. In others, a 
different approach may be warranted. 
In all cases, we work with our clients 
to ensure that their legal decisions 
are good business decisions. 
	
We look forward to expanding 
our footprint throughout the many 
jurisdictions we serve.
