Saudi Arabian Legal System Is Unique
Since the passage of its Foreign Investment Law in 2000, Saudi Arabia has become internationally recognized as one of the optimal places for doing business in the world as well as the Middle East. According to a 2013 report by the National Bank of Kuwait, Saudi Arabia is the top foreign investment destination in the Arab world today, and many would argue this is due in part to Saudi Arabia’s participation in organizations like the Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency (MIGA).
Businesses, companies, and individuals are all looking to Saudi Arabia for investment in a wide variety of projects, from oil and gas ventures to commercial properties, industrial concerns, and various assets such as raw real estate. The rights of ownership for foreign investors as well as matters concerning employer-employee relations, coordination of joint ventures, repatriation, and dispute resolution are examples of issues where Saudi Arabian law will impact the foreign investor’s operations, whether or not that investor is from one of the Arab countries, or is based in Europe or the United States.

Illinois Work Injury Lawyers – Krol, Bongiorno & Given, LTD.
Accidents in the workplace are often caused by unsafe work conditions arising from ignoring safety rules, overlooking maintenance or other negligence of those in management. While we are one of the largest firms in Illinois dedicated solely to the representation of injured workers, we pride ourselves on the personal, one-on-one approach we deliver to each client.
Work accidents can cause serious injuries and sometimes permanent damage. Some extremely serious work injuries can permanently hinder a person’s ability to get around and continue their daily duties. Factors that affect one’s quality of life such as place of work, relationships with friends and family, and social standing can all be taken away quickly by a work injury. Although, you may not be able to recover all of your losses, you may be entitled to compensation as a result of your work injury. Krol, Bongiorno & Given, LTD. provides informed advocacy in all kinds of workers’ compensation claims, including:
• Injuries to the back and neck, including severe spinal cord injuries
• Serious head injuries
• Heart problems resulting from workplace activities
• Injuries to the knees, elbows, shoulders and other joints
• Injuries caused by repetitive movements
For Illinois Workers’ Compensation claims, you will ALWAYS cheat yourself if you do not hire an experienced attorney. When you hire Krol, Bongiorno & Given, Ltd, you will have someone to guide you through the process, and when it is time to settle, we will add value to your case IN EXCESS of our fee. In the last few years, employers and insurance carriers have sought to advance the argument that when you settle a case without an attorney, your already low settlement should be further reduced by 20% so that you do not get a “windfall.” Representing yourself in Illinois is a lose-lose proposition.
