Long-Term Disability Benefits

From Robert’s interview for the Masters of Social Security Disability series on ReelLawyers.com.

A person who can no longer perform any gainful work as the result of a workplace injury may be entitled to long-term disability benefits through a disability program purchased by the individual. Whether the worker qualifies for permanent total disability benefits involves numerous factors such as age, education, training, and the nature and extent of the injury. If the person cannot work at all for a temporary but indeterminate period of time, he or she may be eligible for short-term disability benefits.

Building A Strong And Successful Case

Ayers, Whitlow & Dressler is a law firm dedicated to helping injured employees get the short- and long-term disability benefits they deserve. These cases are often linked to workers’ compensation claims, and the attorneys at Ayers, Whitlow & Dressler know how to collect and present needed information to insurance companies and judges.

In discussions with your doctor, we will learn about your medical condition and the nature of your disability. We will also gather other relevant information and work diligently to achieve results for you.

 

The medical information we collect can be used in pursuit of either short- or long-term disability benefits as well as workers’ compensation benefits and Social Security Disability benefits.

Get An Experienced Advocate On Your Side

If you are collecting long-term disability benefits, you are required to pursue a Social Security Disability claim.

Your insurance carrier may offer to provide a lawyer to help you obtain Social Security Disability benefits. While it is not unethical for the insurer to offer this service, it does present conflict-of-interest concerns. It is in the interests of the insurance carrier to get you onto the Social Security Disability rolls, but it may not be in your best interest. You should seriously consider getting an independent lawyer who will place your interests above those of the insurance company. Ayers, Whitlow & Dressler can handle your case, seeking the best possible result for you.
