When obtaining benefits for our clients, outstanding student loans is the further issue from our minds. We are fixated on present medical and vocational issues not loans incurred 20 or 30 years ago. Yet many of our clients incurred hundreds of thousands of dollars in student loans. Understanding the interrelationship between approval of Disability and student loans can bring a real benefit to our clients and even a possible additional fee for the perceptive attorney.
