A Lawyer's Guide to Social Security Disability and Worker's Comp

Brought to you by Brian Mittman & Daniel Elias of Markhoff & Mittman, PC The Disability Guys™, this one-hour course covers the main types of work injury and disability related programs and benefits that your clients may encounter and how those programs can influence your legal advice. Every practitioner should be able to identify issues outside their main area of expertise that could affect their clients-it does not matter if you practice real estate, trust and wills, criminal law, corporate law, family law, or any other field. Work related injuries and disabling conditions can affect everyone and therefore affect the legal advice you deliver to your clients.

2. Delineate between Social Security Disability and Supplemental Security Income
