How old are you?

Age changes the math on disability retirement — at 62, federal retirement rules shift. This helps us give you a straight answer.

How long have you worked in federal or postal jobs — not counting military service?

18 months of civilian federal service is the minimum for disability retirement under FERS, the federal retirement system. Most careers clear it easily. Military time is a separate question — we'll sort it on the call.

Is a doctor treating you for the condition that's affecting your work?

Honest truth: these cases are won or lost on what the doctor's paperwork says — not on how serious the condition feels. The good news: paperwork is a problem with a known fix.

Quick clarification — these are two different programs.

Workers' comp covers an injury caused by the job. Disability retirement is different — a monthly retirement payment for federal employees whose health stops them from doing their own job, whether or not it happened at work. Many people use both at different times.

Last step — your result is ready.

You'll see where you stand on the next screen — and if you qualify, you can book a case evaluation with the attorney right away.
