Econimic Hardships Affect Disabled

In years when state and national budgets are not threatened by tough economic times, Americas children, disabled, elderly and needy have a better chance of getting government assistance.  However, in today's difficult economic times, lawmakers are attempting to find room in their budgets to make up for state and national losses. 

As difficult as these decisions are, it is imperative that the programs helping the nations disabled are not cut.  When they are, people lose crucial services.  The loss of home care, one of the first benefits to go, can severely affect quality of life.

In recent years, the number of people filing for long term disability in Florida has doubled.  The wait is long and very often applications are denied.  This leaves the disabled without assistance for months and all too often, years.  If you need help filing for long-term disability or want to appeal the denial of your application, please call the Law Offices of LaVan & Neidenberg today for a FREE consultation.  1-888-234-5758
