Law Office Of Stephen M. Jackel

One day someone is leading a normal life, going to work, spending time with family and friends, and doing the things that bring enjoyment and satisfaction.

Then tragedy strikes.

The person is seriously injured on the job. Or at an annual checkup, the physician finds something, and the news isn’t good. Maybe it’s a devastating sickness, perhaps requiring an operation or medicine with debilitating side effects. Many times it’s an emotional illness, like a black depression that descends out of nowhere, stopping the victim cold.

Now it’s impossible to work, and it looks like it will be a long time before the individual is strong enough to go back to a job once again … if ever. What happens next?
