Arizona Long-Term Disability Attorney
Have you suffered a long-term disability and have disability insurance coverage? Disability insurance plans typically can have harsh policy requirements. In order to protect your interest, seek the advice of the Slepian Law Office from day one. If you do not appeal a denial of coverage or submit evidence within the specified period, you may be out of luck. The court might not review your claim.
ERISA and Pensions
The Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) protects workers who have pension plans. In order to receive pension protection under ERISA, you must meet certain stringent criteria. The court may limit the issues you can claim. You must exhaust administrative remedies before filing a claim in court. You should hire an experienced attorney to advocate for you.
The amount you are eligible for is different under each plan. Generally, benefits equal two-thirds of your average monthly income. These payments are available only for injuries that occurred off the job. You can receive benefits only until the age of 65. If you are injured on the job, then you must claim workers' compensation.
Workers' Compensation
If you have been hurt on the job, you may be eligible to receive workers' compensation. Before talking to an insurance company, contact an attorney. If you make statements to your employer, your claim may be jeopardized.
You should consider hiring an attorney to help you prove that your injury was work related and caused a decrease in your earning capacity. We will review your medical records and retain medical and vocational consultants to review your case, if necessary.
If you have been hurt on the job, you may be eligible to receive compensation for medical bills, lost earning capacity, permanent disability, vocational rehabilitation, and death benefits.
