Practice Areas Description

- Workers' Compensation

The attorneys at Snow and Carpio, PLC are an experienced advocate for the rights of Arizona workers. Arizona law requires almost all employers to carry workers compensation insurance. This insurance pays for medical treatment, rehabilitation therapy, lost wages, and some other expenses in the event a worker is injured on the job. While this coverage is for the purpose of helping workers who suffer injuries, it is not always easy to obtain the compensation to which an employee is entitled.

- Workplace Injuries

Serious workplace injuries can occur in any profession — but especially at construction work sites, which are plentiful in Arizona. They include: sip-and-fall or trip-and-fall in an unsafe area; repetitive motion injuries — twisting, lifting and reaching, pushing and pulling, carpal tunnel syndrome; falls from scaffolds; heavy falling objects; exposure to defective or malfunctioning work equipment; back, neck or head injuries; injuries to joints; bulging or herniated disks; fractures; paralysis; and motor vehicle injuries while driving on the job. You can trust an experienced workers' compensation law firm like ours to protect your rights, safeguard your interests and speed your return to work.

- Back and Neck Injury

Our statewide, full-service workers' compensation lawyers know the types of injuries you face. They can help you if you have suffered a serious back or neck work injury, such as: a bulging or herniated disk of the back or neck; nerve impingement causing pain in arms or legs; cervical and lumbar-area muscular sprain or strain; whiplash or soft tissue injury; sciatica, causing pain during walking or sitting; and degenerative disk disease. Some back and neck injuries do not seriously manifest themselves until later, after your original workers' compensation injury benefits matter has been resolved. This could mean a reopening of your closed case. We can handle every aspect of your back or neck injury claim and keep you updated throughout the legal process.

- Social Security Disability

In 10 years of practice in Arizona, attorneys Chad Snow and X. Alexander Carpio have helped hundreds of applicants for Social Security disability benefits. We handle many Social Security disability cases that began with a serious workers' compensation injury. If you have any physical or mental impairment that is going to keep you from working for at least 12 consecutive months, you have rights and interests that should be protected by a law firm with a wealth of experience. Our legal team has combined for almost 20 years of service — and has a reputation for results that can work to your advantage.

- Disability Eligibility

We handle Social Security benefits cases involving types of major disabilities that include: back and neck injuries, shoulder, knee, and hip injuries, cancer, diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, orthopedic disorders, eye and ear disorders, heart failure, circulatory problems, hepatitis, liver disease, pancreatitis, Crohn's disease, kidney disease, stroke, cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis, ALS, lupus, epilepsy, depression and anxiety, bipolar disorders and mental retardation. In order to qualify as "disabled" and receive disability benefits, you must have previously worked in jobs covered by Social Security; suffer a medical condition that meets the government's definition of disability; and have a disability that may last for at least one year or results in death.
