I’d still go the SS short term disability route, they back pay it. Even with the lawyer getting 25% it could be a big chunk of change. He worked for it, and paid into, now let it work for him. Because you just don’t know how long he’s going to be laid up and this doesn’t come under workers comp.
That’s a good idea. After the pathology report comes back on Friday, I’m sure Sam and my daughter will make those decisions.
