This means we only collect a fee for representation if our client is granted the disability benefits. We work closely with clients to submit supporting documentation to demonstrate an inability to work. The firm procures specific evidence from medical providers that clearly links our client’s disabilities to the justification of why work is not possible. Prior to the hearing at the Social Security Administration, we analyze and synthesize the medical records to develop a memorandum that clearly demonstrates why our client meets the requirements for disability benefits under their criteria. The firm prepares clients for the hearing before the Administrative Law Judge and advocates for our clients from start to end.

The firm takes the time to thoroughly review police records and discuss options for alternative sentencing programs to avoid a guilty disposition.
We represent victims of criminal matters, including domestic violence cases. The firm understands that it is very difficult to navigate through the criminal justice system as a victim. We regularly update our clients regarding the status of pending criminal matters and communicate their wishes to the court. The firm is skillful in speaking to prosecutors and advocating for the interests of our clients.
