Help for Social Security Disability & Workers’ Comp in Central Washington

Get the Benefits You Need to Reclaim Your Life

You can’t work anymore because of serious health problems. Or you’ve been sidelined by a serious injury or illness on the job.

Your life is disrupted. You’re running out of money.

Regular checks from Social Security Disability — or Workers’ Compensation benefits from the Department of Labor & Industries (L&I) — sure would ease your stress and improve your life. And you’ve earned the right to receive them.

But winning benefits is hard.

These are special areas of the law, with their own rules, courts, judges and systems for deciding who gets benefits.

It’s unlike anything you’ve had to deal with, but you can get a disability lawyer or Workers’ Comp lawyer who works with these systems all the time to help you win benefits.

At the Bothwell & Hamill law firm, we help people in Yakima, Kennewick, Sunnyside, Richland, Ellensburg, Wenatchee, Walla Walla and all across Central Washington. We’re also disability lawyers for Seattle and Spokane.

If you can’t work, let us go to work to get you benefits.

Get Support in the Disability Application Process

You worked hard, and you’re proud of your work. Given the choice between working to earn a living and staying home with severe medical problems, you’d pick working every time.

Because of all your hard work, however, you’ve earned financial benefits in the event that bad health makes work impossible.

You paid into the Social Security Disability system with every paycheck. These benefits are reserved for when you’re forced to leave your job for an extended period, but you’re not ready for Social Security retirement.

Disability benefits provide monthly checks to help you pay for basic expenses, like keeping food on the table and a roof over your head. They can help restore peace to your life.

But applying is complicated. Most people get denied and have to appeal.

Our Central Washington, Spokane and Seattle disability lawyers have decades of experience helping disability applicants get through this process.

At Bothwell & Hamill, we ease the burden on you so you can focus on your health. You can start working with us by getting a FREE EVALUATION of your case.

Get Someone to Fight for Your Labor & Industries Benefits

When you work in Washington State, you have financial protection in case you get hurt on the job.

Workers’ Comp, overseen by L&I, is supposed to provide quick access to the medical care you need.

If you can’t work, you should also get payments to make up for a large portion of the pay you’re losing thanks to your workplace injury.

This is the deal you get in exchange for your hard work and dedication in our state. It doesn’t matter if anyone was at fault in your accident. If your injury happened at work, you’re entitled to benefits.

But sometimes, the system puts obstacles in the way of you getting benefits.

The Workers’ Compensation lawyers at Bothwell & Hamill can get you through this process, whether you need to apply for Workers’ Comp benefits, or appeal a denial.
