Did you try to keep working even as your medical condition got worse? Maybe you cut back your hours, changed roles, or tried going back after time off.

If you’re applying for SSDI, those attempts don’t automatically disqualify you. In fact, they may help show how your condition affects your ability to work. Learn more on our blog: https://www.bergerandgreen.com/blog/you-tried-to-keep-working-could-that-hurt-your-ssdi-claim/

If you’ve been denied benefits or need help applying, contact us for a free consultation.

If you are eventually unable to continue working, you may wonder whether those attempts could hurt your chances of receiving SSDI benefits.

Already had an old injury before your accident? That doesn’t automatically stop you from recovering compensation.

A new accident can cause a different injury, make an existing condition significantly worse, or bring on symptoms you never had before.

Insurance companies often try to blame everything on your old condition. Medical records from before and after the accident, along with notes on how your symptoms and daily life have changed, can help show what really happened.

Before you accept a settlement, talk to a personal injury attorney. https://www.bergerandgreen.com/blog/when-a-preexisting-injury-actually-becomes-a-new-injury/

Kids have been microwaving these toys to make them softer, a trend spreading on social media. When they burst, the hot gel sticks to skin like wax and keeps burning. Toys left in hot cars can do the same thing, and some have leaked during normal play.

A few quick habits help:

Never heat or microwave gel-filled toys
Check toys for cracks or leaks and toss worn ones
Skip listings with no brand name or age range
Keep squishy toys out of parked cars

Our latest blog covers what to watch for and what to do if an injury happens. https://www.bergerandgreen.com/blog/the-hidden-heat-danger-in-your-kids-squishy-toy/

At Berger and Green, we love recognizing team members who give back to their communities. Today, we're spotlighting our receptionist, Marilee!
For about 13 years, Marilee has volunteered at the WDVE Rocks Children's Radiothon, an experience she looks forward to every year. The cause holds special meaning for her — her nephew has had several hospital stays and surgeries, and she's seen firsthand the exceptional care he received.
"Hearing the final fundraising total and knowing I played a small part in helping make that success possible is incredibly rewarding," she says. "It's amazing to see the generosity and support of the community come together."
Over the years, she's also crossed paths with a few hometown celebrities, including Brett Keisel and Billy Gardell, making the experience even more memorable.
Thank you, Marilee, for your dedication to helping children and families in our community — we're proud to have you on our team! 💛
