General Info

I take a limited number of claims so that I am able to provide personalized service to every client. I have a small staff to handle paperwork and research, however, I personally do all the communications with my clients and if a hearing is required, I personally represent you at the hearing. Does Social Security treat Attorney and Non-attorney Representatives differently? No!! Social Security is not taught in Law School. Social Security recognizes both attorneys and non-attorney representatives equally and Social Security reports show no differences between the two in successful results. There is, however, a huge difference in results between experienced and in-experienced representatives. How do you appoint a Representative? All that is required is to fill out a Form SSA-1696, Appointment of Representation, which is usually supplied by the representative. This form needs to be filed with Social Security before the appointment of representation is valid. What will you have to do once you are represented? Once the preliminary paperwork is completed, the only thing you will need to do from then on, is to make sure that you continue getting medical treatment and to make me aware of any new medical evidence or address changes. I take care of all paperwork needed and file any appeals or necessary information.
