If you are applying for Social Security benefits, chances are you believe that your eligibility is obvious, self-evident and easy to prove. How difficult can it be to fill out a government form and request medical records, right? Well, I hate to break this to you but the system is not designed to help you. By the time you realize this simple truth, your case had percolated through the mysterious wheels of bureaucracy for over a year and got denied twice.

I’ll spear you the details of my case, but suffice it to say that not hiring a lawyer from the start was a naive mistake. Not hiring a lawyer to handle the appeal was just plain stupid. By the time I found Priscilla, I was at the end of my rope – frustrated and overwhelmed by legal intricacies and incomprehensible nuances. What a relief it was to find someone competent to take over that burden. Priscilla is a pro in every sense of the word. She held my hand for 20 months -- always prompt to reply and answer questions in great detail; always on top of everything: records, dates, forms, deadlines; always compassionate, polite, positive and encouraging. Priscilla knows the system inside out and she is highly organized. If you need help navigating the red tape insanity, look no further – she is your girl.
