That's why we are committed to providing personalized attention to each client's case from start to finish. We believe that every client deserves respect, compassion, honesty, transparency, and professionalism.
Our services cover a wide range of disability claims:
Social Security Disability (SSD): If you have a medical condition that prevents you from working for at least 12 months or is expected to result in death within 12 months; you may be eligible for SSD benefits. However; obtaining SSD benefits is not easy as it requires meeting strict criteria set by the Social Security Administration (SSA). You need to prove not only that you have a severe impairment but also that it meets one of SSA's listed impairments or equals its severity level. You also need to show how your impairment affects your ability to perform basic work activities such as sitting; standing; walking; lifting; carrying; pushing/pulling objects; using hands/arms/legs/feet/fingers/toes effectively; understanding/complying with instructions/rules/procedures/policies/supervision/co-workers/customers/public safety standards/etc.; maintaining concentration/persistence/pace/adaptation/social interaction/etc.; handling stress/changes/feedback/etc. Moreover; you need to provide medical evidence that supports your claim, including doctor's reports, test results, treatment records, and other relevant documents.
At Herren Law Office; we can help you with every step of the SSD process; from filing your initial application to appealing a denial or termination of benefits. We can also assist you in gathering and presenting the necessary medical evidence and preparing for hearings before administrative law judges (ALJs). We know how to challenge unfavorable decisions by SSA based on insufficient or inaccurate information or misinterpretation of the law. We also know how to negotiate with SSA on behalf of our clients' interests and protect their rights.
Long Term Disability (LTD): If you have a private disability insurance policy through your employer or purchased individually; you may be entitled to LTD benefits if you become disabled due to an illness or injury that prevents you from performing your job duties for an extended period. However; obtaining LTD benefits is not automatic as it requires meeting specific terms and conditions set by the insurance company. You need to prove not only that you have a disabling condition but also that it meets the definition of disability under your policy's terms. You also need to show how your impairment affects your ability to perform essential duties related directly or indirectly to your occupation.
At Herren Law Office, we can help you understand the terms and conditions of your LTD policy and evaluate whether they apply in your case. We can also assist you in filing a claim for benefits, appealing a denial or termination of benefits, negotiating with insurance adjusters, obtaining independent medical evaluations (IMEs), preparing for examinations under oath (EUOs), etc.
Veterans Disability: If you are a veteran who has served in any branch of the U.S military and suffered an injury or illness related directly or indirectly to military service; then VA disability compensation may be available for you. However; obtaining VA disability compensation is not easy as it requires meeting specific criteria set by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). You need to prove not only that you have a service-connected disability but also that it is rated at a certain level of severity and affects your ability to work or perform daily activities.
At Herren Law Office, we can help you navigate the VA disability claims process, including filing an initial claim, appealing a denial or reduction of benefits, obtaining medical evidence from VA doctors or private physicians, preparing for hearings before the Board of Veterans' Appeals (BVA), etc. We know how to challenge unfavorable decisions by VA based on inadequate or incomplete evidence or misapplication of the law. We also know how to advocate for our clients' interests and ensure they receive fair and just compensation for their sacrifices.
