The focus of my practice is to get to know you, help you understand your legal choices and help you recover your benefits and get your life back on track. You have real world problems and we understand that. (At this office we've seen just about everything after 30 years!) We will manage every aspect of your claim from beginning to end, helping you receive the maximum benefits you are entitled to. Oftentimes we can even obtain those benefits without going to trial but if trial becomes necessary, we'll go through it together. You'll always know what we're doing and why we're doing it; just as importantly, you'll always know what is expected of you (after all, you are the most important member of our "team".) We've handled a broad range of claims over the years related to:
Workers' Compensation/ Personal Injury
If you have been injured on the job, you need to understand that your employer's interests and your interests may not be the same. The Alabama Workers' Compensation Act was designed and implemented in 1919 to help the employee at a time of crisis: following a work accident. Where do you start? What do you do to promptly receive the best available treatment and the most benefits you should receive by law? Who is looking out for you?
You may have a personal injury claim that is also a Workers' Compensation claim (injured by a Third Party while performing work duties). On the other hand, you may have been injured away from the job (for example, a car accident). What is the first thing you should do? What is the first thing you should not do?
Social Security Disability & SSI
If your Social Security disability benefits claim has been denied, you need to act promptly to appeal. A failure to file the appeal in a timely fashion will assure a dismissal. But now that you've filed the appeal, what's next? How do you develop your claim to give yourself the best chance for success before the Administrative Law Judge?
Please browse this website. I put it together to anticipate and answer some questions like you see above. Hopefully you'll get the answers you are looking for. If not give me a call, send an e-mail or make an appointment and we'll try and get you an answer.
