Disability Law by Gold Country

Disability law can be a very confusing, exhausting, and very time-consuming process that you don’t have to handle on your own. An Attorney can fight by your side while you figure out this tiring process and get the compensation you deserve. In fact, many people who might qualify for some kind of disability benefits don’t know they should apply until it’s often too late. And while disability law may be complicated, ringing up the best lawyer for the job is something quick and easy you can do to get the process started.

If you call a law firm like Gold Country Workers’ Comp Center, you are sure to have a team of excellent attorneys working diligently towards getting you the benefits you deserve. If your impairments happened due to a work-related incident, you can be assisted in filing and pursuing a Workers’ Comp claim. It isn’t only up to the employer’s insurance coverage whether or not you will receive compensation and how much that is, there might be cases where you can receive penalties for unreasonably delayed benefits, failure to adequately investigate a claim or be awarded additional compensation for discrimination for having filed a claim or for willfully causing a serious injury.  There are basically two ways to view this issue: If your injury was due to someone else’s negligence, you probably can to sue in civil court, a slow and tedious forum for recovering damages, and perhaps larger awards to compensate you for your injuries, but you cannot sue your employer or co-employee for civil damages.  Workers’ Compensation on the other hand provides a relatively speedy and informal way of getting medical care and some compensation for your lost wages and long term impact of your injury.

And if these medical impairments continue to worsen, especially if you’ve had to leave work altogether and have no idea when you’ll be going back, it might be time to file a  State Disability claim and/or a Social Security Disability claim. You might even be able to pursue both the Workers’ Comp claim and State Disability and SSD claims at once, but no case is exactly the same as any other. Having an experienced attorney there to guide you through either or both of these kinds of claims is the kind of guidance you need in order to know where your time is better spent. Sometimes it’s worth pursuing what you can as soon as possible, and other times something could be deterring you from getting something else.

Disability law is tricky, and depending on which institution you’re dealing with, many people will try giving you either false information or making you drown in the paperwork that will leave you feeling exhausted and defeated. Having a disability law firm on your side also means that your claims gain that much more validity and credit, since the institutions you’re going against will understand that an attorney won’t spend their time and money on a case they can’t win.

If a medical condition limits your ability to work, there is no better time than the present to call a disability law firm. There are many ways to help you depending on what caused your disability. Although some conditions might have developed over time or from an early age, if you were injured at work, if severe enough, it could turn into long-term issues with the need for long term financial support.

Gold Country Workers’ Comp Center is a very trusted and reliable disability law firm that can help you regain your lost wages and compensation if you suffered an injury while “on the clock.”  Workers’ Comp benefits are available for specific injuries, like falling or lifting too much, OR that result from micro day-to-day trauma on any body part that eventually develops to the point of needing to seek medical care or take time off.  We can help you file the appropriate forms and guide you through the possibly lengthy process. While this is going on, you might also qualify for other programs as well. In fact, if you are still employed there might already be benefits offered to you by your employer you might not have been aware about. We can also help determine if you qualify for a private insurance policy, as the definition of “disabled” varies and might involve some measures to be sure you are eligible.

A PIECE OF ADVICE:  DO NOT MISS WORK FOR MEDICAL REASONS WITHOUT A DOCTOR’s REPORT SUPPORTING THE NEED TO TAKE SOME TIME OFF TO PURSUE MEDICAL TREATMENT!  Disability benefit programs all require medical evidence in support of whatever benefit is being pursued.

When it comes to California residents, there’s a small percentage of every employee’s paycheck that is deducted and paid into a special disability insurance fund. If you cannot perform your regular work duties and suddenly find yourself out of work due to your conditions and you are not receiving any other type of comparable benefits, then you might be eligible to receive these funds.

Of course, if you do not meet certain disability requirements or cannot substantiate these claims, do not worry, as there are still a few programs available to all Americans that can help you while you’re dealing with your illnesses and being without an income. SNAP benefits will help you if you have a low income, TANF (temporary assistance for needy families), a program that also benefits low-income families, and Unemployment benefits provide assistance if you are involuntarily unemployed but are still seeking employment in the near future. Some of these are rather temporary, but can surely help you. It’s not easy navigating all of the different requirements for these programs, which is why a disability law firm can be there to guide you and meet the appropriate deadlines for all of them.

No matter the issue you are facing, we are certainly here to help you. Call Gold Country Workers’ Comp Center at our toll-free number 877-233-8399 or (530) 362 7188 for a free consultation today. Early intervention works, so do not hesitate to pick up the phone even if you have a few questions.  Getting an early understanding of the possible benefits available to those with medical conditions that interfere with work is very important.  We will help you through this transition and relieve any insecurities.
