The Help You Need for Your Social Security Disability Claim
Schad & Schad is a premier southern Indiana law firm devoted to representing plaintiffs in social security claims , personal injury, and wrongful death. We handle tough, complex cases. Our verdicts and settlements include vehicle collisions, trucking accidents, landowner liability, defective products, medical negligence, construction injuries, and toxic exposure cases.
We believe that fighting the good fight can change things not only for the injured, but for the community we live in. We don't back down. When we take a case to trial, it sends a message to those whose carelessness wrecks the lives of innocent victims: It tells them not to drive recklessly in our community. It tells them not to sell dangerous products here. It tells them not to break the safety rules that endanger children, or the weak, or the poor. And it lets our Government know that when someone pays into a system they helped build, that person deserves every consideration available.
Schad & Schad is a family firm. Larry Schad and Matt Schad grew up in southern Indiana. We live here. We are committed to making a difference in the lives of our clients who live here, in helping to ensure justice for the injured who live here, and in contributing to our local legal community through leadership and education.

Multiple Sclerosis: Good News When Everything Looks Bad
Created On: 10/18/2011
If you have Multiple Sclerosis and are applying for social security disability benefits, you have a good chance at winning at the first step (compared to the statistical average). Here are some tips that may help you with your case.Case History
45
Practice Area: Disability
Description: Our client was a 45 year old gentleman born with cerebral palsy. At the age of 28, he was awarded SSI and found to be disabled from the age of 21. Due to additional psychiatric problems, he only remained on SSI for a short time before becoming chronically homeless for the next 20 years. (Without a permanent address, some individuals have great difficulty keeping their SSI benefits.)
Outcome: Based on the fact that the SSA had originally found our client disabled prior to the age of 22, Schad and Schad was able to establish an adult child disability. The client was then able to obtain a regular disability check based on his deceased father's earnings and find a comfortable place to live.
