DENNIS KENNY: Workers' compensation claimants often overlook that they can also potentially be eligible for social security disability benefits at the same time as receiving workers' compensation.
The two benefits can add up to 80 percent of the claimant's average weekly wage. Any excess over 80 percent is reduced from the claimant's social security award.
Understanding this concept and understanding the awards allows the claimant to maximize his benefits between workers' comp and social security disability.
Since 1991, I have been providing representation for social security disability applicants. When you come to our firm, we're going to make sure you get every possible benefit you're entitled to.
TARA L. JOHNSSON: It's very important to speak with an experienced attorney because claimants usually don't know how to proceed. There's a lot of paperwork involved. And it's important to get with an attorney right away so we can help navigate the process.
DENNIS KENNY: You don't have to worry about the prosecution of your claim. You've got enough to worry about. Let us take care of your claim.
