For Employers

We can help you provide for the long term employee who is no longer able to work because of a illness or a disability.

Every successful business is made up of people who have worked in that business for years. As an employer, you know that sometimes, as your employees get older, they just can no longer do the job they have done for years because of a illness or an injury. Many times these employees do not have the transferable skills to be moved into another job.

The Social Security Law recognizes that older people are more easily disabled than younger people. The regulations specifically provide that it is easier for a person to obtain disability benefits as they get older.

If there is a valued employee in your business who is not yet of retirement age but who cannot do his job because of an illness or injury, we may be able to help you get benefits for that valued employee. Please contact us for help with this.

 Skilled and Experienced Social Security Disability Staff.

Our Senior Attorneys, Carol Ponton and Maria Santana, have handled over 25,000 Social Security Disability claims over the last twenty-five years. In addition to Carol and Maria, there are three other attorneys who have undergone an extensive training course to ensure that they can aggressively and effectively present our clients' claims to the Social Security Administration.

Our Experience allows us to move claims through the process more quickly with an excellent record of success.

Our track record at each level of the Social Security Disability benefits litigation process is one of notable success. Most Social Security Disability claims are resolved at the hearing level with an Administrative Law Judge. Our record of success with the Administrative Law Judges is approximately 85% to 90%

However, one of the most significant benefits that our clients receive from our experience is the fact that we can recognize the cases that should be decided favorably without a hearing. We spend a great deal of time writing “on the record” requests for favorable decisions. We have been very successful with our “on the record” requests. A favorable decision without a hearing can reduce the time for a client to receive benefits by as much as a full year.

We welcome referrals by Employers.

If you have a employee in your business who is disabled, we welcome the opportunity to show you that we are a law firm you can trust to value your employees in the same way you value them. Contact us for furtherinformation and assistance.
