Our firm helps disabled individuals secure Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits. We help you navigate through this complex process and appeal any denials. If necessary, we will argue your case in front of an administrative law judge and, if warranted take your claim all the way to the Federal District court.
Veterans who have served our country should be treated with honor and respect. If you believe you have a service-connected physical or psychological injury we can help you secure Veterans' Compensation. Whether you are starting an application for compensation, seeking an increased rating, or appealing a denied request, we can increase your chances of approval.
Private insurance agencies make money through your monthly payments, not through payouts, and it is in their best interest to delay claims, deny claims, or offer minimal support — making the filing process confusing. We know the system well and are very familiar with the tricks, loopholes, and red tape that the insurance companies depend upon for their profits — let us help you file a successful application or make a successful appeal. Protect yourself by seeking legal counsel immediately
