| September 2009 - Without the need for discovery or a hearing, OPM reversed its decision denying our client disability retirement benefits. Our client had a medical condition arise during her Federal Civil Service, and as a result of the hospitalization and treatment of that condition, she was out of work for several months. Her employer fired her for being absent. She applied for disability retirement after her termination. OPM initially denied the claim, but after being provided with medical records and legal argument from the Attig Law Firm, OPM decided to reverse its decision and grant disability retirement. |
