Help With Disability Status Issues.

My friend of many years is disabled. He got that way by shear stupidity, he'll be the first to admit it and does. The problem Steve has is that he can no longer work at his stand up all day job, he's a machinist. He's not eligible to receive Workman's Compensation because he got hurt outside of work, showing off on his watercraft. Did I mention Steve has a wife, 2 kids, and another due in weeks? I guess I forgot but Steve knows what's coming next, no income. He's been trying lately to get social security disability but he's been getting the normal government run around and denials. I did some research into attorneys and other types of advocates and did find one company that's been around since 1984 and has a 98% success rate for over 100k people. I gave Steve the information and hopefully he can get something going to take care of his family until he can get rehabbed or she is able to get some work. I don't know what they're going to do with the employment situation the way it is right now and hopefully they can get some medical benefits in the interim. Good Luck, Steve.
