The fight for Ericka’s disability benefits was not easy. While Ericka endured months of treatment and over five surgeries, Debra sifted through more than 13,000 pages of medical records, and worked alongside Ericka’s care team to build a case for Ericka’s disability benefits.
After three years, Debra won Ericka’s appeal and got her the disability benefits she needed. These necessary benefits helped Ericka stay afloat while undergoing treatment. Ericka is just one of the many patients NYLAG served through LegalHealth, our unique medical-legal partnership model.
In a one-year period, we won millions of dollars for our clients, including $7,940,000 in ongoing yearly public benefits, and collaborated with 36 hospitals and medical centers to reach patients like Ericka.
