Disabilility Law

---

Individuals with disabilities are often entitled to government or  employer benefits to assist them to live their life as fully as  individuals without disabilities. Depending on the situation these  benefits can include monetary payments, or equipment or employment  conditions that accommodate the person with disabilities.  Recent  changes in the law have expanded the range of disabilities for  employment situations.
 

I work with people with disabilities to help them obtain disability  benefits.  Before coming to see me, many people with disabilities feel  they  have no control over what is happening to them.  I encourage my  clients to be active participants in their benefits application  process.  This can reduce their legal costs and more importantly  facilitates people with disabilities to begin to take bake control of  their lives.
 

I help people with disabilities to apply for benefits they are entitled to under the law.  This includes the following:
 

Reasonable Accommodation requests under the Americans with Disabilities Act and the Federal Rehabilitation Act
 

Disability Retirement applications under Social Security (SSDI) and Office of Personal Management (for Federal employees)
 

Social Security Income (SSI) applications under Social Security
 

Applications for Federal Workers Compensation   
 

Managing the process of reducing or terminating employment related  disability payments if the client becomes capable to return to work
