Permanent and Long Term Disabilities

Any condition or injury that indefinitely prevents you from leading a normal life, including working normally, is considered a long-term or permanent disability. There are many long-term disabilities, including:

• Full or partial paralysis (quadriplegia and paraplegia)
• Brain damage
• Back and vertebrae damage
• Asthma and lung disease
• Amputation
• Blindness
• Deafness

Each of these disabilities can be enough alone to prevent someone from adequately providing for himself and his family. When they happen during the work context, the injured party is forced to go on long-term disability leave. Although necessary to rest the body, lost income from long-term disability leave can be financially devastating.

Long-Term Disability Compensation

The law provides remedies in certain situations of permanent-disability. The government offers social security and disability payments. If your disability is the result of another party's negligence, you may have cause to file suit and receive compensation.

The law requires all claims and law suits to be filed within a certain time period after the injury. Failure to do so can result in you losing you claim and compensation. Our office will appoint a lawyer to make sure all the deadlines are met with your case and keep it valid until it is settled.
