Social Security Overview

Helping People in the Wilkes-Barre Area and Northeast Pennsylvania Region Get the Social Security Benefits They Deserve

I am single-minded when it comes to helping you get you the Social Security Disability Insurance or Supplemental Security Income benefits you deserve. You worked for them. You earned them. I know how frustrating it can be when you feel you have a legitimate claim and have your benefits denied. I will be your advocate and work hard to get you the benefits you deserve.

As a trial attorney with more than 20 years of experience dealing with the Social Security Administration, I have handled countless of SSDI and SSI cases for clients throughout northeastern Pennsylvania. If you need help, call me at 570-763-4714 to schedule a free consultation.

How I Will Work for You

When you come to me for help, we will start with a discussion of your needs and concerns. We will talk about your work experience, what your skills are and what kind of work you have done. If necessary, I can arrange for a medical exam from a qualified physician who will provide a reliable assessment. Moreover, I understand the complex and often confusing rules and regulations surrounding Social Security benefits and can help you fight for claims regarding:

  • Disability caused by injury to the lumbar or cervical spine
  • Disability due to a chronic medical condition, such as a heart or lung problem
  • Disability caused by a psychological condition
  • Other SSDI conditions, including endocrine, neurological, hemic-lymphatic and immune diseases, etc.
  • Survivor benefits
  • Retirement benefits
  • Need-based benefits (Supplemental Security Income)
