Your Trusted Advocates For
Disability And Workers’ Rights
Are you out of work because of ongoing health problems? Has your life been disrupted by a serious injury or illness on the job? When you are running out of money, regular checks from Social Security Disability — or workers’ compensation benefits from the Department of Labor & Industries (L&I) — would ease your stress and improve your life. You may have earned the right to receive them.
When you are out of work because of injuries or illness, trying to win benefits on your own can be hard. Social Security Disability and labor-related matters are special areas of the law – with distinct rules, courts, judges and systems for deciding who gets benefits. It is unlike anything you have had to face, but you can get a disability lawyer or a worker’s compensation lawyer who works with these systems all the time to help you win benefits. Let our legal team at Bothwell Hamill & Sutton, PLLC be your partners navigating disability and labor law in Washington. We are committed to helping you regain security after medical conditions or injuries disrupt your life.

“After back-and-forth runarounds and many months of dealing with the Social Security Administration (SSA) . . . Thomas Bothwell and his legal assistant Terri Thompson were very proactive in our case. . . . They became THE VOICE OUR FAMILY NEEDED TO GET SOME RESOLUTION to a very confusing and frustrating process of applying for a possible disability award. Fast forward, our family just received notification from the SSA of an acceptance! . . . Our family is GRATEFUL for (the legal team’s) knowledge, expertise, time and professionalism. . . . We would HIGHLY RECOMMEND the services of Thomas Bothwell and staff on Social Security claims!”

Get The Support You Need In The
Social Security Disability Application Process
You worked hard, and you are proud of your work. Given the choice between working to earn a living and staying home with severe medical problems, you would pick working every time.
Because of all your hard work, however, you have 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 are forced to leave your job for an extended period, but you are 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. Applying for these benefits can be complex. Many applications are denied, and applicants have to go through an appeal process. At Bothwell Hamill & Sutton, PLLC, our disability lawyers have decades of experience helping disability applicants get through appeals. Contact us to learn how we can help, so you can focus on your health.
We Will Fight For Your
Labor & Industries Benefits
When you work in Washington, you have financial protection in case you get hurt on the job. Workers’ compensation, overseen by state’s L&I department, is supposed to provide quick access to the medical care you need.
If you cannot 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 does not matter if anyone was at fault in your accident. If your injury happened at work, you are entitled to benefits. Sometimes, workers find that the system puts obstacles in the way of getting the benefits they deserve. Our workers’ compensation lawyers at Bothwell Hamill & Sutton, PLLC can get you through this process, whether you need to apply for workers’ comp benefits or appeal a denial.
