Understanding the Judge in your Social Security Disability and Workers’ Compensation cases is very important.
An experienced Workers’ Compensation and Social Security Disability lawyer will understand what the Judge expects and their temperament.
The lawyer can give you insight into the questions that will be asked at the trial and why they are being asked.
Some Judges are arrogant and expect to be treated with great deference.
Other Judges are easy going and just want to do the right thing by the law and the evidence.
Whatever the type of Judge you may have, respond and act politely and it will help you.
Make sure that you explain your accident, condition and limitations in a way that is believable and paints an accurate picture of your daily activities.
Expert help is available to you with no upfront costs.
Social Security Disability cases and Workers’ Compensation cases restrict attorney fees to a percentage of your recovery at the end of the case.
This ensures that the lawyer is not paid unless you recover money.
