At the Nicholson Law Firm we help disabled individuals navigate the Social Security Disability system. Whether you have a physical or mental disability, it can take years and a lot of fighting to get the benefits you deserve. We are here to help.

There are several steps to the process. First – file your claim. It can be done in person, over the phone, or on the computer. The computer is the quickest way to apply. Start your application at ssa.gov/apply. After you are denied, you have 60 days to appeal a denial. Contact my office as soon as you are denied for a free consulation. Once you appeal, it is a two step process to get the case in front of the Judge. We guide you through the appeals process and attend the hearing with you to plead your case.

You only pay a fee if we are successful. The fee comes out of any back benefits due to you. Call us today for a free consultation, we look forward to helping you.
