In preparing, formulating and filing for Federal Disability Retirement benefits under FERS or CSRS, there is a quantity of information which exists in the “public domain”. Just as in the areas of social, professional and (unfortunately) personal lives, information on issues, people, concepts, etc., are plentiful, so similarly the legal arena has exploded with unending and expansive admixtures of facts, opinions and information. That is the nature of this “information age“.
Quantity of information, however, is not an indicator of the quality of such information. Further, quality of information does not necessarily result in knowledge. Knowledge is conceptually distinct from information. The former encapsulates the application and effective usage of the former, while the former remains a vacuity of existence until it is formed and utilized.
Proving one’s eligibility for Federal Disability Retirement benefits under FERS or CSRS requires both knowledge and information. For, ultimately, it is the effectiveness of the formulated application, one which persuades and meets the legal criteria at the Office of Personnel Management, which is what matters. As such, it is important to first reach out for qualitative information, then to seek out a Federal Disability Attorney who has effectively applied such information for his or her clients.
In the search for information, always ask questions, for questioning should always lead the comfort of mind that the source of the answers will provide an effective use of information, both in quantity and in quality.
Sincerely,
Robert R. McGill, Esquire
