Short Term Disability (STD) is a benefit that AT&T's employees are entitled to per AT&T's written company policy, and the employees Bargained Labor Agreement. AT&T is violating it's own policy and violating the labor agreement, which is legal and binding. Needless to say it also causes their employees a great amount of distress and in many cases adversly affects their health, lives and their families. I have yet to find an employee, current or former, that doesn't have a story to tell about AT&T denying their disability claim for a valid illness as defined by their own company policy.
It is a numbers game for AT&T. The company's representatives who do not have medical backgrounds, just continue to deny the claims for bogus reasons until they finally wear the employees down. Many employees have not fully recovered from their disability but are forced back to work under the threat of losing their job and health benefits. The result is that AT&T gets to keep our money.

Google labor law attorneys. They can be from anywhere, if they aren't admitted to the bar in the state where the corporate headquarters is located they will simply attach a local counsel as part of the filing. Good luck.

ok my suggestion is a great site I found: http://locate-power-of-attorney.info/ It's a site that has Lawyers subscribed to it.
It's free to do. You shoot off your case and their lawyers are shown the info, then they might choose
to take it or not and quote you a price, then you choose who you go with.
You get to thoroughly check the lawyer's backgrounds etc, it's good because you just spend 15
minutes with the site and that is it. You could have a choice of a few lawyers.
Free to try, no obligation to go ahead with anything
