When a semi-truck is involved in a crash, the consequences are often catastrophic. Getting prompt medical treatment should be your first priority, followed closely by speaking with an experienced personal injury attorney or car accident lawyer about your legal rights. You may be entitled to compensation for hospital bills, ongoing treatment, lost wages, vehicle repairs, pain and suffering, and other damages. Semi-truck collisions frequently result in injuries such as traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord trauma, severe burns, fractures, internal organ damage, and amputations. If you or a loved one has been injured in a truck accident, reach out to our team today for trusted legal guidance.

After you are approved for social security disability, there is a mandatory two-year waiting period before you can become eligible for Medicare. However, there are some exceptions for people who have fatal or end-stage diseases. If you have end-stage renal disease or Lou Gehrig’s disease, or if you have received disability payments in the past, you may be able to petition for a waiver of the waiting period. If you’re not sure if you qualify for a waiver or if you need guidance in seeking disability benefits, call our attorneys today.

The Social Security Administration may use a vocational expert during a disability appeal hearing. A VE can act as a neutral, third-party witness that provides testimony regarding the extent of your disability and how it affects your ability to work. Your attorney can ask the expert questions during a hearing to better establish your functional and occupational limitations. If you need assistance navigating a disability appeal hearing in Arizona, call us now to schedule a consultation.
