Frequently Asked Questions

Can I apply for Social Security disability while pursuing a personal injury claim?

Yes, and The Brad Hendricks Law Firm helps clients coordinate these proceedings. However, any injury settlement you receive must be carefully structured to avoid reducing your SSI benefits. The firm ensures your cases work together rather than against each other.

What happens to my disability benefits if I file bankruptcy?

Social Security benefits are generally protected in bankruptcy, but the rules are complex. The Brad Hendricks Law Firm coordinates your bankruptcy filing with your disability benefits to ensure you lose no benefits you are entitled to keep.

Should I file for disability before or after a personal injury settlement?

The timing matters significantly and depends on your specific situation. The firm reviews both your injury case and your disability eligibility to recommend the best sequence that maximizes your overall recovery.
