We’ve Got Your Back
Life can change in an instant. Kandelaki Solutions provides disability insurance designed for attorneys, offering you the security you deserve, so you can focus on what truly matters—your health and your practice.
Why Disability Insurance Is a Must for Attorneys

Comprehensive Disability Insurance for Attorneys
We offer comprehensive, attorney-specific disability insurance to protect your income and peace of mind during unexpected challenges.
Insurance Types Available:
- Income Replacement Insurance: Ensures you continue receiving a portion of your income if you’re unable to work due to illness or injury, so you can maintain financial stability while focusing on your recovery.
- Law Firm Overhead Protection: Covers your firm’s operational costs—such as office rent, salaries, and utilities—during your recovery, ensuring your practice remains intact while you’re unable to work.
- Legal Expense Coverage: Helps cover the costs of hiring temporary legal help or outsourcing cases when you’re unable to manage them, so your clients and practice don’t suffer during your absence.
Group vs. Individual Disability Insurance
Understanding the differences between employer-sponsored coverage and individual policies is crucial for comprehensive income protection.
Employer Group Coverage
Short-Term Disability
Typically covers 60-70% of your base salary for 3-6 months, with a 1-2 week elimination period. Often provided at no cost or subsidized by employers.
Long-Term Disability
Usually covers 50-60% of your base salary until retirement age, with a 90-180 day elimination period. Benefits are typically taxable when premiums are employer-paid.
While employer coverage provides a good foundation, it often has significant gaps that can leave professionals financially vulnerable during a disability.
Individual Disability Coverage
Individual disability insurance policies are specifically designed to complement or replace group coverage, providing more comprehensive protection tailored to your specific needs and profession.
Key differences from group coverage:
- Policies stay with you regardless of employment changes
- Benefits typically paid tax-free (when premiums are paid with after-tax dollars)
- Coverage can be tailored with specific riders for your profession
- Higher benefit amounts available, especially for high-income earners
- More favorable definitions of disability for your specific occupation
- Policies stay with you regardless of employment changes
- Benefits typically paid tax-free (when premiums are paid with after-tax dollars)

Individual disability insurance serves as the cornerstone of a comprehensive income protection strategy, filling gaps left by employer coverage and providing protection throughout your career.
