While most attorneys will not take SSD and veterans appeals cases, our lawyers often handle 80 to 90 or more such cases each year because they understand how important these benefits are to people’s financial security.

Our Practice Areas
Turning Your Mental Health Struggles Into Approved Benefits
When you are struggling with a mental health condition, such as depression, anxiety or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), these invisible disabilities can make it impossible to maintain steady work. We understand that mental health conditions are just as debilitating as physical injuries, and our attorneys are here to help you secure the benefits you have earned and deserve.
Our lawyers help clients facing mental health issues gather the right medical documentation, work with their doctors to build strong cases and present compelling evidence that shows how their conditions prevent them from working.
Whether you need help with the initial applications or appeals that have been denied, our team will guide you through each step and fight for the benefits that will provide the financial stability you need during your recovery.

Our Team Takes On Appeals Cases
“Most attorneys won’t take appeals cases, but we often do up to 80 or 90 or more a year. We handle cases where by the time it reached our office, the claims may have been denied somewhere between 5 and 10 times. Even for cases where another attorney has done some of the work, we often appeal the case. Taking a claim that has been denied and making a federal court or appeals court see why that decision was wrong – that’s gratifying. That’s a good day.”
