Employment Law

• Workers Compensation
  When lawyers include “Trial Practice” in the description of the services offered we refer generally to adversarial contested disputes which are resolved through a process where rules and regulations control what evidence comes before an impartial fact finder, most often a judge or jury. Trial practice can be in a variety of forums. Most people associate this practice with the court room where a jury is sitting hearing evidence. At Springfield Law P.A. we do our share of that, but we also handle trails where a judge’s job is to decide what facts to rely on and who will apply those reliable facts to the law, and no jury is involved. This process can occur in circuit courts, county courts, in workers compensation venues, administrative law courts and others.

• Medical Malpractice
  Personal Injury law covers a wide range of unique areas of law. Car accidents resulting in injuries, property damages, lost wages, scarring, future medical care, loss of ability to earn in the future trigger application of very specific laws. These same laws will not be triggered when these damages are the result of a slip and fall, or from injuries caused by a dangerous condition on someones property. Medical malpractice laws also trigger a unique set of laws which can result in the inability to pursue legal action if these laws are not carefully followed. Even bicycle accidents where cars are involved will trigger unique remedies which can be lost. The same can be said for injuries from dog bites.
• Auto Accidents
• Social Security Disability
  Appeals of denials of applications for social security disability benefits, also referred to as SSDI benefits, is a long process. In July 2015 the agency reported that it was taking 19 to 20 months to schedule a hearing after one was requested. Appeals of the denial of applications for supplemental security income benefits, also referred to as SSI benefits is equally long. Disability lawyers, like me, who handle these cases need good lines of communication with their clients during this time because gathering medical records is critical to winning the case. Updating the court file with new medical evidence is ongoing and occurs right up to the time of the hearing, sometimes even after the hearing. Contingent fee arrangements are the norm so that the client is not obligated to pay any fee unless the case is won.
