Disability Attorneys?

Disability attorneys work with clients to help them prepare their cases for disability claims and other legal proceedings. Attorneys who work with disability may help with cases caused by medicine use, medical procedures, accidents or injuries. The filing process for disability claims can take an extended period of time due to the amount of paperwork and investigation involved. A disability attorney can help to file paperwork and handle any appeals processes. By adding a disability attorney to a disability claim case valuable time may be saved. Disability attorneys may often be able to speed up the process and arrange hearings and evaluations faster than standard applications. These attorneys will also appear at the hearings for the case in order to present information to the judge. Disability attorneys are versed in disability law and procedures, making them able to help clients succeed in their claims. This success rate is often higher than those who do not consult a disability attorney. Disability attorneys may work on a sliding scale fee or for a portion of the disability income amount. Many disability attorneys will offer consultations before taking a case in order to determine whether the disability claim is valid. This is done as not all disability claims will be approved. Those with valid disability claims will be given assistance gathering necessary paperwork and medical information. This information will then be used to help the case gain approval. For those who may have a questionable disability claim, a disability attorney may recommend that they file on their own, or gather more information and proof before trying to hire an attorney. In many cases, a disability attorney may not accept the client’s case until they have been denied at the initial filing level. This means that the paperwork must have been filed and a decision of denial has been issued in the disability case before the attorney will take on the case. This allows them to begin work on the appeals process which may help win the case for the client. Legal resources for disability attorneys may often be found through state websites and other directories, or through the attorneys themselves. These resources may include pay scale rates such as what the legal limit for an attorney’s fee is and what conditions are considered to be eligible for disability.

Do you have to hire a private lawyer if someone has a claim on your home owners insurance?

Generally not, as the liability coverage pays for the costs of defense. That is, part of the insurer's obligation is to hire an attorney on your behalf, pay him/her and pay costs associated with the defense (court reporters, etc.). However, the foregoing applies only if the claim against you states a claim that comes within the scope of coverage. For example, if the claim is that you intentionally hit and injured someone while at your home, since a homeowners policy covers negligent, not intentional acts, the policy likely would not provide coverage. In that instance, the company would probably notify you that it is denying coverage, whereupon you would need to hire an attorney to defend you in the lawsuit. There are instances where a dispute can arise as to whether coverage does or does not apply. In those instances, the insurer usually issues a "reservation of rights letter" which advises you that it has a question about coverage, but that pending the conclusion of its investigation (or relevations during the course of the discovery phase pf the lawsuit), it will defend you "under a reservation of rights" (to later disclaim coverage). If you receive notice to that effect, you are best advised to retain private counsel to monitor the claim or litigation.
