Our team

A team is stronger than any individual.

A collection of talent, dedication, and passion that won't stop until your case is won.

Attorneys

Social Security Representatives

Our Social Security practice is led by non-attorney representatives credentialed under SSA's Eligible for Direct Payment Non-Attorney (EDPNA) program — a federal examination and continuing-education credential for disability representation. They are not attorneys and do not provide legal services outside Social Security matters.
