Thank you for your five-star review and we’re so glad we were able to help you with your SSI case!

On December 15, 2025, a three-judge panel of the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that subjective testimony carries weight in identifying debilitating conditions that aren’t revealed through medical tests or markers. This includes fibromyalgia, a condition that has long been challenging to prove in disability cases. This means that subjective testimony regarding the severity of symptoms must be taken into account in a disability claim or appeal. If your claim was denied or if you haven’t applied for disability because you aren’t sure if fibromyalgia qualifies, we can help. Call now to schedule a consultation with one of our disability attorneys.

Is a driver responsible for your injuries if they cause an accident after swerving to avoid an animal in the road? Arizona follows a fault-based liability system, which means that if they are found at fault for the accident, they are liable for medical and property damages and losses. However, certain mitigating circumstances may be considered. If the driver swerved to avoid a wild animal, their fault may be reduced. If they swerved to avoid livestock or a loose dog or cat, the owner of the animal may share some fault for the accident. If you’re not sure if your situation qualifies you to file a personal injury claim, call us now to schedule a case review.

If you were injured in a slip and fall accident, you may have grounds to file a personal injury case against the negligent or responsible party. To win your case, you will need an attorney with extensive experience in slip and fall injury cases. At Hallinan & Killpack, we work tirelessly to fight for our clients’ rights and prove the impact of injuries and damages sustained in slip and fall accidents. We will start by looking for incontrovertible evidence that the property owner or manager’s negligence resulted in your injuries. However, it’s important to work quickly to preserve evidence and find witnesses. Call us now to schedule a case consultation.

Can your social security benefits be reduced? And if so, does the SSA have to give you advance notice? In most cases, you will get a formal letter from the SSA warning you of an upcoming change to your monthly benefit amount. However, there are some situations that may cause a decrease before any kind of formal notification is sent out. The most common situations are the withholding of benefits under the earnings test, Medicare premium deductions, IRS levies, court-ordered garnishments, and recovery of past overpayments. If your benefit has been reduced and you’re not sure why, call our attorneys right away.

The first thing that you should do if you are injured on the job, in a car accident, or on public or private property is seek medical attention. Next, you should contact a local personal injury attorney like our team at Hallinan & Killpack. We can guide you in properly documenting your injuries and the scene of your injury by taking photos of the circumstances that led to your injury. Then, gather witness names and contact information and find out if there are any videos or photos from the time of the injury. Call us now to schedule a consultation.

March is National Brain Injury Awareness Month. This observance was designed to educate the public on the impact of brain injuries, highlight prevention strategies, and reduce the stigma surrounding the lasting effects of these injuries. 5.3 million Americans currently live with a permanent brain injury-related disability. Hallinan & Killpack works hard to secure compensation for injuries in lawsuits, settlements, and insurance payouts, as well as providing professional assistance and representation for clients filing for disability due to their injuries.

Understanding how a personal injury award is distributed: If you win a personal injury case, the court will issue a judgment award or the defendant will enter into a settlement agreement. When this happens, a check is sent directly to your attorney. Your attorney will withdraw their fee and court costs, and will distribute funds to cover medical liens and other approved expenses. The remaining amount will then be given to the victim in a lump sum or as part of a structured payment plan. If you need a personal injury attorney in Arizona, call Hallinan & Killpack today.

How is fault determined in a pedestrian accident? In Arizona, the court uses the principle of comparative negligence to determine fault in a pedestrian accident. A judge or jury will examine all of the evidence in the case to make a decision as to whether a pedestrian contributed to the circumstances of the accident in any way. If you were crossing against the light, jaywalking, or walking in an unsafe area not designated for pedestrians, you may be found partially liable for your injuries. This could affect the amount of your judgment. To protect your rights, call Hallinan & Killpack today.

What is an alleged onset date (AOD) in a social security disability case, and how is it calculated? Your AOD is the date that your disability began. However, this date will have to be substantiated through evidence as it will be used to calculate the past due benefits or backpay you are eligible for. This date isn’t the date you were diagnosed, but the date that you were prevented from seeking or continuing employment due to the effects of your injury or illness. Your attorney will use medical records, employment records, witness and expert testimony, and other evidence to prove this date. Call Hallinan & Killpack now to get legal advice on applying for SSDI in Arizona.
