Oak Park Long Term Disability Attorney

Individuals may become disabled either through the course of their employment or otherwise. Obtaining long-term disability benefits should not be impossible, especially since your disability is already mentally exhausting. Your doctors have determined that you are indeed disabled. This diagnosis is challenging to come to grips with, but you have. 

While you would rather work and earn a living as you always had, this may not be possible. It is more traumatic when your employer and insurance carrier disagree with your disability assessment, especially when they have not examined you. Michael Bartolic, an Oak Park long-term disability attorney, knows how difficult it can be to obtain these benefits. 

Insurance companies and employers will often provide short-term disability and even Social Security Disability, seemingly without a hitch. Still, things can get complicated fast when it comes to long-term disability.
