Elliott Andalman, along with co-presenter Richard Neuworth, will present a live national teleconference sponsored by the National Business Institute (NBI) on Nov. 20, 2013 from 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. The teleconference is titled “Coordination of Disability Benefits: Traps for Unwary Attorneys.”
Disability Benefits
There are a variety of benefits available to workers who become disabled. They include:
- Private disability insurance policies
- Group disability insurance policies usually issued through the workplace
- Worker compensation insurance
- Social security disability benefits
- Disability retirement benefits for federal and postal workers as well as many public employees of states, counties and municipalities.
Unfortunately, many of these disability benefits cannot be stacked. Rather, there are an array of offsets and coordination of benefits that can lead to very unpleasant surprises if you are not aware of which programs offset others and how they offset.
Mr. Andalman and Mr. Neuworth, both of which have decades of experience in this area, will help sort this out for you in this live teleconference so that disabled individuals can maximize the benefits available to them.
