The Renegade Lawyer Podcast Ep. 82 - Special Edition: Ben Glass visits the Third Circuit Court of Appeals to talk ERISA
This is a republication of the public domain audio from the Third Circuit Federal Court of Appeals in Philadelphia. The audio has been mildly edited to reduce filler words and time gaps.
Great Legal Marketing is the only coaching organization run by two full time practicing attorneys. Last year, Brian Glass got the highest automobile accident in Virginia and Ben litigates ERISA-governed long term disability and life insurance disputes across the United States.
Our journey today takes us into the heart of the case of a coal miner from Southwest Virginia who, we believe, was unfairly denied benefits. The court posed thought-provoking questions over the definition of "suitable employment" and the potential influences of past work experiences. The court questioned the use of social media posts in administrative disability decisions and evaluated the decision-making processes of peer review physicians who reviewed medical records only.
This was a spirited discussion that has nothing to do with building your law practice, so you can skip it if you want!
Ben Glass is a nationally recognized personal injury and long-term disability insurance attorney in Fairfax, VA.

What Makes The GLM Tribe Special?
In short, we are the only organization within the "business builder for lawyers" space that is led by two practicing lawyers.
One thing we're sure you've noticed is that despite the variety of options within our space, no one else is mixing
the actual practice of law with business building in the way that we are.
There are no other organizations who understand the highs and lows of running a small law firm and are engaged in talking to real clients. That is what sets GLM apart from every other organization, and it is why we have had loyal members that have been with us for two-decades.
