introduction
I can personally relate to people living with disabilities. In 2001, I suffered a serious back injury that left me unable to work for over six months. At first I could not stand, walk or even sit up. I was very fortunate; my disability was only temporary.
In 2006, I met Steve Shaw while I was working as an attorney volunteer at a non-profit agency serving people with disabilities. I was shocked to learn that almost 70% of the people who apply for Social Security are denied their benefits. I heard horror stories about how non-attorney representatives, and even some attorneys, just didn’t what the hell they were doing. I also found out that many people are so discouraged that they just give up! Learning all of this and knowing what it feels like to be unable to support my family had a profound and life changing effect on me and on my career path.
I decided to exclusively practice Social Security law, allowing me to utilize all of my attorney skills and extensive knowledge of the law and medicine to obtain the disability benefits people are entitled to from Social Security.
Now, I am in partnership with Steve Shaw. I enjoy the work that I am doing. I know what it takes to properly evaluate, present and win a Social Security benefits claim, and I have the experience and skill to make a difference in almost any case. I also have the compassion and understanding to give my clients the support they need to successfully get through what can be a long and difficult process. I hope that you will give me the opportunity to help you.

Additional Info
Fee: Lander & Shaw’s charges adhere to the fee structure as regulated by the Congress of the United States. The government foresaw that people who were out of work wouldn’t be able to afford retainer fees, so it devised a contingency fee structure that an attorney may charge for their work. A contingency fee is simple to understand– if we can’t win your case, you don’t owe us any money. We do not require a retainer - it does not cost you anything for us to get started on your case. If we win your case, the fee amount is 25% (twenty-five percent) of the “retroactive benefit” award amount, but in no case can the fees be more than $6000 (six thousand dollars). The retroactive benefit is the amount that you would have been paid from the date Social Security determines that your disability began to the date of the decision in your favor. Unlike many other attorneys, we do not require you to reimburse our costs for expenses incurred in order to present your claim, whether your claim is successful or not.
