Can I return to work later after receiving Social Security Disability?

If you're receiving Social Security disability benefits and it's your intent to return to work, you do have a nine month trial work period. If you do return to work, and your return to work lasts longer than nine months then your return is successful and you'll no longer be eligible for Social Security disability benefits. If your return to work is less than nine months, then your return to work will be deemed unsuccessful and you will continue to receive Social Security disability benefits without having to file another application. My name is Erik Chisolm of Kantrovitz and Associates. For the last twenty years, we've been representing people in the Greater Boston area in matters of worker's compensation, personal injury and Social Security disability.

How much money can I collect from a car accident in New York?

After a car accident in New York if you're expecting to get significant money, the only way you're going to get that is if you're entitled to it and you have a skilled attorney working for you and you've sustained significant injuries. If your injuries are minimal, you're not going to get much money because even if you have a skilled attorney working for you and they get a tremendous amount of money from a jury, it's going to go up on appeal and you'll never see that money because your injuries aren't that significant. But if you've had significant injuries you could get serious money if you have a serious attorney working for you. I'm Mitchell Proner. If you're looking for an experienced, skilled attorney to represent you or a loved on in New York, contact me today.

Is the government involved in the flat-panel screen price fixing case?

Why are lawyers involved in this? Why wouldn't the government be involved in it? Well, you know, as luck would have it, the government is involved as well. There are criminal prosecutions going on, grand jury going on, as we speak, about the flat-panel screens that are the subject of this price-fixing movement. On the other hand, the government is working for the government. The government isn't necessarily working for the people. They're interested in fines, perhaps, for the price fixing. We're involved in changing it for the people. And, hopefully, to get money back for the people who purchased these flat-panel screens. My name is Tom Girardi. I'm the Senior Partner of Girardi/Keese. For the past forty-four years, we have helped people in California who've been seriously harmed. I'm very proud of the work we've done and the role that we've played.

How much money in a workplace sexual harassment case?

In your typical discrimination case, which includes sexual harassment, racist discrimination, gender discrimination, the primary one is economic loss. That's your loss to pay either while working at the job, meaning they failed to pay you as much as you were entitled to or after you were terminated and that's the money that you lost while you weren't working. The second is emotional injuries, pain and suffering, and that will greatly depend on, of course, how much you suffered and whether you sought psychologial or psychiatric treatment for that suffering. And there are also other types of damages that you can seek as well, such as, in certain limited cases, punitive damages and also attorney's fees. My name is Walker Harmon. I'm the managing attorney of the Harmon Firm. If you believe you've been the victim of illegal employment discrimination we are eager to speak with you. Please give us a call.

What to do if I'm a victim of pregnancy discrimination?

"The first thing that you should do if you believe that you are a victim of pregnancy discrimination and you are still employed, is to make a formal, written compliant to your supervisor, or the HR department, or whomever is in control in your working environment. If you are no longer employed, you can still make a formal, written complaint but you should probably seek the advice of an attorney because it is unlikely if you have been terminated because you are pregnant that an employer is going to rehire you simply because you have made a written, formal complaint. My name is Walker Harman. I am the managing attorney of the Harman Firm. If you believe you have been the victim of illegal employment discrimination, we are eager to speak with you.

Are lost wages covered after a motorcycle accident in NY?

After a motorcycle accident in New York, lost wages are not covered under the motorcycle's insurance policy because motorcycles were excluded from the no fault law. Consequently, lost wages will ultimately be realized by the party at fault through their insurance carrier, but that's going to be at the end of the claim, not at the onset. So, if you have lost wages after a motorcycle accident, you can either get that money for your lost wages through either your employer's disability policy, or in the alternative, if the accident happened while you were working, you are entitled to lost wages through a workman's comp claim. I'm Mitchell Proner. If you are looking for an experienced, skilled attorney to represent you or a loved one in New York, contact me today.

How are lawyers helping me if i am a victim of the flat-panel screen price fixing scheme?

A lot of times people don't really understand what lawyers do, and the fact of the matter is in almost all of these cases good lawyers put in thousands of hours to help the people.

On the other hand, that's what we are doing. So the next time you see some ad about corporate America that says how terrible plaintiff lawyers are, think about this- there are a lot of plaintiff lawyers out there that are doing their utmost for you.

Is it possible to create an agreement to avoid an order of protection in Arizona?

Fortunately in Arizona many courts will allow parties and counsel at an evidentiary hearing on an order of protection, to speak frankly and candidly before the order of protection hearing, to determine whether or not the parties are able to settle their differences outside of court. Luckily, my office has been party, or is counsel to many parties, working out these differences and becoming people who do not have a record of an order of protection. I feel great gratification when I can bring, or our office can assist, in bringing two people of very divergent opinions together to agree not to contact one another, but do it outside of the framework of a court order.

When do I have to return to work after my pregnancy?

When you need to return to work after your pregnancy depends on many factors. Different leave laws have different requirements. For example, the most common leave law, the Family and Medical Leave Act, requires that you have worked for your employer for at least a year, that you've worked at least 1250 hours in that year, and that your employer has at least 50 employees working within a 75-mile radius of your job site. If your employer meets those requirements and you meet those requirements, you can take up to 12 weeks of bonding leave with your child. My name is Sarah Schlehr of the Schlehr Law Firm. I work to protect California employees from discrimination and harassment in the workplace.

What is workers' compensation?

If somebody in Massachusetts has an injury while they're at work and they are unable to earn their wages and/or require medical care, they're going to be covered for their lost wages and their medical treatment. The question or the issue of fault is irrelevant. We don't ask the question of "Was it John's fault when he fell down a flight of stairs at work, or lifted the box at work," that's not the question. The question is whether or not they were an employee, whether or not they were hurt while they were working and whether or not they are disabled from performing the functions of their job and/or require medical care, period. My name is Attorney Steven Kantrovitz of Kantrovitz and Associates. For the past twenty years we've been representing individuals in the Greater Boston area in worker's compensation, personal injury, and Social Security disability claims.

What's it like to help someone stay in their home?

Feels great to help someone modify their loan because it means they are going to be able to keep the loan. It also has a bigger impact on the economy. If we can get all of these non-preforming loans to preform through loan modifications, I really, truly believe that would be as much of a help, if not more of a help, than the current bail out. Because that is the problem right now in California and across the nation, as we have all these people that are in default because they simply can't afford to pay the mortgage after it increases. After the interest rate goes up and they are good people, they are hard working people and they want to make a loan payment. It's just that the predatory loan has made it as such that they can no longer make that increased payment. My name is Damian Nassiri, I'm a partner in the law firm Howard/Nassiri, we're based in Southern California. And we help people save their homes. If you've been the victim of a predatory loan, or you're facing foreclosure, give us a call.

How much alimony is awarded in Arizona?

In Arizona, what's been commonly referred to as 'alimony' is now turns as spousal maintenance or spousal support. Oftentimes spousal support is a contentious issue because oftentimes men who have been working in the workforce for many years are reluctant to pay their wife or significant spouse some maintenance. The only way to determine how much spousal maintenance and or spousal support should be paid to this spouse receiving the spousal maintenance is to determine what the incurred complete financial picture is of both persons who are getting the divorce.Obviously, if a person needs to receive spousal maintenance because that's the only way they can get back on their feet, spousal maintenance will be ordered by the court.

Why do accidents happen on the Metro Link in California?

Metrolink continues to crash because they don’t have safeguards. The fact of the matter is, there all sorts of things they could do. They know that the people in the, in the cabin of the train were suppose to yell out whenever they come across a red signal. Their all supposed to yell it out, red block, so everybody is aware. Um, they don’t do that. They’re, they’re working their crossword puzzle or on their cell phones instead. Now then, to have this sort of irresponsibility, where you have all these people on your train is insanity. The fact of the matter is, what is the Union Pacific freight train doing on the same track at the time the commuter Metrolink is headed on the same track. This is nuts. And, there’s sensors out there that could divert that, that wouldn’t let a train pass when there’s a possibility of harm. But they’ve decided it’s much cheaper, I guess, uh, to pay all the people who’ve gotten hurt, maimed, and killed than it is to do the right thing to make sure this won’t happen again.
