Secure Your Rightful Workers' Compensation Benefits

A workplace injury can instantly disrupt your life, leaving you with mounting medical bills and a loss of regular income. Under Michigan law, employees injured on the job are entitled to medical care and wage loss benefits. Unfortunately, insurance adjusters frequently use various tactics to delay payments or terminate benefits prematurely. Common mistakes such as resigning from your job before filing, accepting lighter duty assignments without legal guidance, or filling out complex forms incorrectly can severely harm your case.

Whether you have suffered fractures, orthopedic injuries, carpal tunnel syndrome, back injuries, or traumatic brain damage, our experienced workers' compensation lawyers understand how to build a robust claim. We work meticulously to gather medical evidence, consult experts, and represent you in hearings. If your benefits have been unfairly cut off, you may need a workers' compensation attorney urgently to step in and restore your monthly payments.

Professional Social Security and Disability Claims Assistance

Filing for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI) is notoriously difficult, with the vast majority of initial applications rejected. At Cooper, Bender and Bender, P.C., we assist clients at every stage of this grueling process, from the initial paperwork to appeals hearings before administrative law judges. We help gather the necessary clinical evidence and prepare you for questions to ensure the highest likelihood of approval.

In addition to social security, we specialize in long-term disability and short-term disability insurance claims. Many employer-provided policies contain complex clauses and hidden traps designed to favor the insurance company. If you are unable to work due to a physical or psychiatric condition, our attorneys will evaluate your policy and handle the appeals process before the record closes, giving you the best possible chance to secure the maximum benefits.
