Greetings, and welcome to my blog, a place where I can share some thoughts and information about the law (and other things I care about) with you.

I have a passion for justice that has grown over the past decade as I have worked to protect the rights of injured people. There can be a substantial difference between quick and easy settlements and just settlements, and that difference can have a great deal to do with the determination of the injured person’s attorney. Some may view that as a tough attitude; perhaps it is, but I see it as having a simple passion for justice — justice that injured people deserve. It’s not all about money — it’s also about being treated with dignity, and about having your rights protected and defended

My e-mail address is jwh@hensleylaw.com — I’d like to hear from you.

Are there really secret strategies for winning disability claims? Absolutely — there’s a whole range of steps that a person should take if they expect to prevail in their disability case, steps that not everybody knows about. I’ll be outlining those secrets here on my blog from time to time.

Here’s the first one:

Secret #1: Recognize the problem (disability) when it arises. You don’t have to be catastrophically injured or terminally ill to collect. Many policies provide money for partial disability. Look for such things as loss of productivity, loss of income or the inability to perform the material and substantial duties of your occupation.

Check back regularly, and I’ll post more.
