Guest guest Posted June 10, 2002 Report Share Posted June 10, 2002 good or bad....you decide!!! he says he thinks i have something. but he is not a young atty with alot of free time. his fees are $275/hr. he told me that most likely with ltd i would really not get any money, because of what i get from ssd. but i should get benefits. medical and life. he told me to call chicago federal bar association and get a referral of an atty that handles ERISA claims. usually when a case is wonfor erisa the atty fees are paid. he spent the full hour going over m y paperwork. he told me most attys don't want to mess with these claims. he told me to stick to the facts that i was healthy when i started and became disabled while employed full time. he told me do not sign any paperwork. he said if i could not find anyone to let him know. i am running a fever and so sick to my stomach again. but he said i will have to go to chicago to fight this one. he said prarie state legal services (lake county legal aid) would probably not handle it because i should be entitled to the remainder of my short term disability. he is guessing about 5000. and legal aid will not get involved if $ is involved. kathy in il Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
