Q: TBA: A judge ruled in favor of my disability claim as a closed period and I would receive back pay for that time period, but I will not receive a monthly benefit because I went back to work and make more than $1,000. My LTD group plan wants to recoup what they call an offset of social security in the sum of $15,000. This is basically the entire amount of the back pay. Is there any legal recourse in this matter such as filing bankruptcy? If I don't pay it back will and can they sue for this money? Can this amount be 'settled' as insurance companies do on a regular basis?

the info he needs, takes his valuable time to ask me if
I have anything else to discuss...and this one thing

- Ben...Thank you very much for the article, it was very interesting. I must tell you though, we were very surprised. It is a great feeling to know there are still people (very busy people) who still have the thoughtfulness and the time to think of someone you met only once.
- Mr. Glass...thank you very much for your advice. It worked.
I did exactly what you told me. Last Friday I received a
check for $2300 from Allstate...Coming to see you was not
a waste of time. It was fruitful. - Tort Reform
