This volume outlines basic information about the legal issues that face individuals with multiple sclerosis, including working with doctors and lawyers, making choices about employment and income, discrimination, and disability benefits, including the specific listings for the condition under the Social Security Act. Further chapters address insurance issues, Medicare and Medicaid, taxes, powers of attorney, related issues in family law, handling debt, getting around, and housing. Each chapter contains clear steps to take. This edition has been updated to reflect changes such as the new Part D Medicare prescription benefit and interpretations of the Americans with Disabilities Act by the US Supreme Court, and changes to areas of law such as bankruptcy and taxes. There is no bibliography but many resources are provided, including those online. Mainly aimed at lay readers, the book can be useful to social workers, health care professionals, and lawyers who do not specialize in the area. Lanny Perkins is an attorney whose practice includes working with people who have multiple sclerosis; Sara Perkins, who has multiple sclerosis, is a retired attorney.
