Q: DATE ON MY DISABILITY FORM: What date should I put on the disability claim form as to when my condition started? I have a ninety-day wait period and a requirement that a notice of claim be made within twenty days or 'as soon as reasonably possible.'
A: The "date disability condition started" box on a claim form is very important. It is impossible however for anyone to tell you what date to use without knowing all of the facts and circumstances of your claim. Another date that is very important is the "last day worked." You may want to have an experienced disability attorney look at your claim form before you file it. That attorney will likely want to see your medical records/reports from your doctors. That attorney will likely charge a fee for this service and this is a fee well worth paying.

Testimonials
- Congratulations on having been selected by your peers for inclusion in the 2011 edition of The Best Lawyers in America®
- This is our first experience meeting with a lawyer. Surprisingly, our meeting with Ben went so well. It was very informative and educational.
- We were deeply touched by your kindness.
- I contacted Attorney Ben Glass's office and franticly spoke to his assistant Terry. We had a little more than two weeks to challenge my LTD provider's threat to offset my LTD disability payments by the amount of a recent settlement I had received on a Worker's Compensation claim - the claim was settled outside of the Worker's Compensation system.
- I want to thank you and your staff for all your hard work in 2009. I greatly appreciate your efforts on my wife's disability appeal. Your staff worked hard, is very talented and your ethical approach was readily apparent.
