Eric's disability benefits team helps disabled people nationwide fight denials of long-term disability insurance benefits, ERISA disability benefits, and social security disability benefits.

So we can focus on helping people get disability benefits, we don’t handle other types of cases, such as workers compensation or personal injury,although we do work closely with very good attorneys who do handle those types of cases. We have five attorneys and three legal assistants, as well as other support staff, who are well-trained in disability benefits law and can help our clients present the best disability case possible.

In fact, our single largest referral source is other attorneys

Eric has taught continuing legal education classes at the National Disability Law Conference seven times. He has taught classes at the Association of Trial Lawyers of America’s (ATLA), now AAJ, national convention four times. He has also taught classes on Social Security, ERISA law, and disability law at local conferences and classes in Tennessee, Florida, California, Massachusetts, Kentucky, Alabama and Georgia.

Our attorneys have thirty-four years of combined experience representing people seeking Social Security benefits and have represented a total of more than 4,000 people in Social Security hearings.

Insurance companies are NOT on your side; they know the law and use it to their advantage. Insurance companies try to save money by denying claims for benefits and they often deny legitimate claims hoping you will not appeal. We understand the law associated with The Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA), bad faith insurance law, contract law, and other areas of the law that will help you win your case but that the insurance company will use against you, if you are unrepresented.
