The Brain Injury Law Firm® is uniquely qualified to represent you for disability claims against an insurance company because of the effects of “brain fog.” Our attorneys understand the limitations and consequences caused by brain damage. The symptoms of Covid-19 brain fog are like those caused by a traumatic brain injury.  For over 40 years our attorneys have advocated and represented victims of brain injury both in and out of the courtroom.  We are the only law firm in the United States whose partners have both served as chairpersons of the prestigious Traumatic Brain Injury Litigation Group of the American Association of Justice.  We are designated as “preferred attorneys” by the Brain Injury Association of America.

Shana De Caro serves as chairwoman of the Brain Injury Association of America and Michael V. Kaplen served three terms as president of the Brain Injury Association of New York and was twice elected chair of the New York State Traumatic Brain Injury Services Coordinating Council, a council of which he is still a member. 

Many employers provide disability benefits to their employees.  These benefits are known as group short-term disability benefits and group long-term disability insurance benefits.  Additionally, some individuals purchase private disability insurance policies.

Long haulers who continue to experience disabling symptoms affecting their ability to work following their infection are frequently improperly denied disability benefits by their insurance company.  When this occurs, our law firm may assist in obtaining the disability benefits to which you are entitled.
