The Legal Services We Offer Through Our Madison Office
People come to Hawks Quindel, S.C., at different points in their working lives. Some have spent decades in a career and can no longer work because of a serious medical condition. Others have been injured on the job, had disability benefits denied, or encountered discrimination or retaliation at work.
Our Madison attorneys help clients resolve legal issues in the following areas.
Social Security Disability
A serious medical condition can make continuing to work impossible, particularly for someone who has spent many years in a physically demanding or highly skilled occupation. Our Madison Social Security Disability lawyers help people pursue SSDI benefits when physical or mental impairments prevent them from working.
We can help with initial applications, denied claims, reconsideration, hearings, and other stages of the Social Security disability process.
Long-Term and Short-Term Disability
Employer-sponsored and private disability insurance can provide important income when illness or injury keeps you from working. Claims can become difficult when an insurer disputes your medical limitations, questions whether you can perform your occupation, or terminates benefits that it previously approved.
Our Madison disability lawyers represent clients in long- and short-term disability matters, including claims governed by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA). We can review policy terms, develop evidence, prepare administrative appeals, and pursue litigation when appropriate.
Employment Law
Workplace disputes can affect a person's career, reputation, and financial security. Our employment attorneys represent employees in matters involving discrimination, sexual harassment, retaliation, FMLA rights, wrongful termination, non-compete agreements, and other employment issues the firm accepts.
Madison and Dane County have a diverse workforce that includes public employees and state workers, university-sector employees, healthcare professionals, skilled tradespeople, and workers in many other occupations. Our attorneys only represent employees, never employers.
Wisconsin Workers' Compensation
A workplace injury can create questions about medical treatment, wage-replacement benefits, returning to work, and permanent limitations. Our Wisconsin workers' compensation attorneys help injured employees pursue benefits and respond when an employer or insurance carrier disputes a claim.
We represent workers with traumatic injuries as well as qualifying occupational conditions that develop over time. Our attorneys can also address disputes involving medical evidence, light duty, permanent disability, and the worker's ability to return to the same type of employment.
