Difficulties commonly arise when navigating the disability system in Colorado. These difficulties can leave people feeling overwhelmed and upset after months without progress toward their goals:
If you seek benefits, the definition of disability may be so strict that your application could be denied, even if you are out of work due to your condition.
An organization could allege that your condition does not entirely limit essential work functions, such as walking, standing, or lifting. A successful case requires extensive medical records that prove the severity of your disability’s limitations.
There are many layers of complexity when seeking worker’s compensation. In cases like these, you need to prove that your injury stemmed from job duties. While your injuries or illnesses may have stemmed directly from your work, employers might dispute the accuracy of your claims and stall your claim’s progress.
Additionally, insurance claims may involve proving insurers acted in “bad faith” when denying your claim. Employee discrimination cases require evidence that an employer intentionally discriminated against you due to your disability. These scenarios require such a high burden of proof that individuals can face a seemingly insurmountable hurdle.
We know how to help you overcome these obstacles. We can build your most robust case, negotiate with relevant parties, and represent you in court when necessary. McDermott Law, LLC, can help you find the most straightforward path to compensation.
Attempting to secure disability compensation should not add to the complexities you already face due to your disability. Our experienced disability attorneys have the knowledge and resources to fight for the benefits you deserve.

You need comprehensive medical evidence to have a substantial disability claim or appeal. Gathering this alone can be a lengthy venture that might lead to minimal results. We work diligently to gather medical records, professional reports, witness statements, and limitation evaluations when on the case. This objective evidence will be vital in overcoming obstacles like stalling steps and potential denials from insurance companies, government agencies, or employers.
It may be difficult to imagine dealing with insurance companies, past employers, or government agencies alone. At McDermott Law, LLC, our team members are your advocates, and we protect your rights throughout the process. We can provide you with compassionate, steadfast representation during negotiations, hearings, or appeals. When conflicts arise, we aggressively protect your interests.

Negotiating a fair settlement can be difficult. Insurance companies often resist awarding everything that they are required to cover. When you need compensation, we do not settle for less than you deserve.
Because of our extensive legal experience, we know how to negotiate aggressively and fight for compensation that properly reflects the impact of your disability. We can represent you in court if the parties cannot agree on compensation amounts. Our proven track record shows our commitment to securing our clients’ deserved compensation.
There are many qualifications for disability in Colorado, and to assess your situation and qualifications correctly, you should speak with an experienced disability attorney. Depending on the type of disability you’re seeking, you could qualify by:
An agency may look at other factors to determine the amount of disability benefits you will receive per month.
Employment Disability Law in Colorado comes from the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the Colorado Anti-Discrimination Act (CADA). These two laws protect a person with disabilities from discrimination in employment, including hiring, firing, promotions, training, and benefits. Employers must also provide reasonable accommodations for people with disabilities.
An employer’s accommodations must not impose hardship on the business or business owner.
Getting disability in Colorado can sometimes be difficult due to the complex application and eligibility requirements. Agencies provide strict definitions of disability and work standards that must be met. Many applications get denied.
In a disability application, the administration requires thorough medical documentation to prove your limitations.
After receiving a denial, you can appeal, but that process is also complex and challenging. Enlisting a disability attorney’s help can ensure that you have a knowledgeable ally in your disability fight.
There is no easiest condition with which to get disability, and having a disability does not mean you will automatically receive disability benefits, as you will still need to apply. The applicable agency reviews each case extensively and examines many factors in your life.
Having severe impairments that prevent you from performing most basic work activities can meet the disability requirements.
Don’t let insurance companies or other agencies prevent you from securing the compensation you deserve.
