Social Security Appeals Are My Firm’s Entire Focus

When you are unable to work, it is critical for you to access the governmental programs that are specifically intended to help you. You may have no other source of income. The stakes are high indeed.

That is why it is so important to work with a lawyer who has extensive experience working on Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI/SSI) appeals, as my law firm does. Our legal support team has been working together for years. We have a proven, streamlined system in place to ensure that your case is handled promptly and properly.

The Social Security Administration has moved to a paperless process. Our firm has upgraded our technology, with electronic medical record and case management tools.

In spite of recent coronavirus procedures implemented by Social Security, we continue to get our clients the benefits they deserve.

THANK YOU again.
– Rafael Urena

I wanted to publicly thank you for your excellent representation. As a practicing litigation attorney myself for almost 20 years, I was very overwhelmed with the complexity of the SSDI/SSI system. Your representation was indispensable in getting my claim appealed and obtaining a successful result. You knew the procedures, informed the client, knew the court and always gave realistic opinions. I would highly recommend your firm to any individual with a SSDI/SSI claim. Thank you again.
– Carl R.
