Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit A few people have recommended well-known pension/disability advisors, one lady in particular who advertises a lot. I have no knowledge of her ability or competence, but I know that she does not accompany you to the various va'adot that you need to go through in order to prove disability. Anyone who has tried proving himself sick knows that these va'adot are simply modern inquisition councils. If you do pay someone to advise you, demand that he/she come with you to the meetings, they are not what you imagined. To the many people who asked me to pass on my findings, it seems that there isn't anyone out there who can help and hold your hand when needed. I will tell my friend that although Etni usually comes through for any of its members (we have an amazing reputation which is why she asked me, she is not an English teacher), in this case we could not help, Shabbat shalom Judy
