I represent clients who are no longer able to work and need Social Security Disability Benefits.

A disability is an impairment or combination of impairments, physical or mental, that stops a client from working 8 hours a day, five days a week.

If you think you are disabled and have stopped working as a result, you should apply for benefits. You may do this by

- Going online at www.ssa.gov
- Calling the toll free number at 1-800-772-1213, or
- By going in person to your branch office.

If you choose to apply in person, these branch offices serve clients in Multnomah, Clackamas, Washington, Marion and Yamhill counties:

Most applications are denied regardless of merit. You should not take a denial as proof of the merits of your claim. Many denied claims are good claims. If your claim is denied, do not give up!

I understand that your goal is to establish an income and medical benefits as soon as possible. I will discuss your situation point out the strategies that make the most sense for your case. No two cases are alike!

Know that strict time limits apply to bringing a personal injury claim. Good cases have been lost just because a client has missed a time limit. So, if your case is denied, call my firm right away at (503) 620-3171 or contact us online for a free consultation.
