- Social Security Disability Appeals

If you are unable to go to work due the effects of a disabling condition, Social Security Disability (SSD) benefits can be your lifeline. If you have had your benefits claim denied, it doesn't have to be the end of the road. The law firm of Wolf and Brown L.L.C. can help you file an appeal and continue pursuing the benefits you deserve. With more than 40 years of SSD experience, our Social Security appeals attorneys are well equipped to handle your SSD appeal. We have represented thousands of clients in appeals cases and have a successful track record of achieving favorable results for our clients.

- ERISA

The Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA), regulates private health insurance policies, including long-term disability insurance. The Social Security and ERISA lawyers of Social Security Disability benefits assist disabled employees in obtaining Social Security Disability benefits under the terms of their employer's long-term insurance policy. The insurance companies for private employers covered under ERISA may provide short-term and long-term disability insurance as a benefit of employment. When short-term disability pay is exhausted, the long-term disability policy kicks in. Most disabled workers return to their jobs within a year. However, if the disability prevents the employee from returning within 12 months then, yes, the insurance company may require you to apply for Social Security Disability benefits. If you are approved, your SSD benefits may offset the employer-paid portion - you will still receive the same monthly amount. It is important to file early and with the help of an attorney.

- Veteran Disability Benefits

Attorney Mike Brown can help you file a claim or appeal the denied claim to get you the disabled veteran benefits you need. Mr. Brown is a member of the National Organization of Veterans Advocates (NOVA), and is admitted to practice before the United States Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims. More importantly, Mr. Brown is a committed advocate for disabled veterans. We can help you face the Veterans' Administration. If you have a medical condition related to your military service, you are eligible for disability benefits from the Veterans' Administration. A veteran spouse, other dependents, and vet survivors may also qualify for disabled veteran benefits.

- Workers' Compensation

In New Jersey, employees injured in workplace accidents or who develop on-the-job injuries receive temporary disability benefits through the state Workers' Compensation system. If the injury is permanent, the employee may be eligible for permanent partial award or permanent total disability payments. You may be eligible for additional benefits through Social Security Disability. The Social Security / Workers' Compensation attorneys of Wolf and Brown LLC will assist you in determining whether you qualify for added benefits and will handle your SSDI claim from start to finish. If you are approved for Social Security Disability Benefits, you also become eligible for Medicare health care coverage.
