If Your Disability Insurance Company Has Wrongfully Denied Your Claim, We Can Help Secure the Benefits Owed You

Doctor explains injury causing a long term disability claim to worker.If you become disabled due to a sickness or injury and are unable to continue working, disability benefits can help you secure lost income until you are able to return to work. Most employees are eligible for short term disability insurance benefits; if your disability lasts more than a few weeks, you may also be eligible for long term disability insurance benefits. You may be able to receive short term disability benefits and long term disability benefits even if you are receiving workers compensation and/or Social Security disability benefits. A disability insurance attorney can help you apply for disability benefits. An attorney can also help you navigate the process following a disability denial and convince a court to award disability benefits to you.

Hawks Quindel has the experience to represent you throughout the disability benefits appeal process. We have helped hundreds of clients in Milwaukee, Madison, throughout Wisconsin, and beyond secure their short term disability benefits and long term disability benefits. This is because our disability attorneys do not dabble in this type of work, they specialize in it. Disability insurance companies know we will aggressively pursue your disability benefits claim and will take them to court if necessary.

In Most Cases, We Don't Get Paid Until You Do

In many cases, we are willing to represent individuals on a contingent fee basis, which means we do not get paid unless you do. We understand the stress caused by a disability. Often, we can handle your disability benefit case without you having to travel to court or even to our office.
