We were able to assist a social security disability client by winning her case which allowed her to keep her home as she was facing imminent eviction/foreclosure.

By focusing on limited practice areas (workers' compensation, social security disability, SSI and long term disability insurance), I have been able to gain a lot of experience handling these matters. So, I have usually encountered a situation before and am able to handle the case from a perspective of experience. Also, I handle claims from the initial application through the appeal process (including Federal court) as appropriate.

It is critical to have a lawyer with years of experience handling your case. While we are not able to win every case, expertise in the field of law certainly increases the chances of a successful outcome.

Having a local attorney is critical. Having practiced in central New York and northern Pennsylvania for over 20 years, I am familiar with the local Judges, attorneys, and medical providers. I have seen situations where lawyers fly in from distant offices on the morning of the hearing. A local presence and local knowledge definitely improves the chances of a favorable outcome in a workers' compensation or social security disability case.

My firm handles workers' compensation matters on behalf of injured workers and insurance carriers.

For social security disability and SSI matter, handling the case at all levels of the process avoids the need to switch lawyers to continue pursuing your case.
