Law Firm Overview
Attorney Sharon A. Christie Focuses on Cases Involving Car Accidents, Medical Malpractice, Nursing Home Negligence, and Social Security Disability.
People who deserve disability payments under the federal Social Security system often give up on the cumbersome process and struggle financially without receiving the benefits to which they are entitled. But Social Security disability benefits can make the difference between financial stability and tremendous financial hardship. Don’t let the bureaucracy discourage you from completing the often lengthy process. I am familiar with the laws, regulations, and procedures that must be followed to the letter in order to qualify for benefits. Be aware: Most claimants have had to appeal an initial denial in order to win Social Security disability payments. If your claim has been denied, please contact me today at 410-823-8200 for a free consultation.
Don’t Take “No” for an Answer
If you’ve applied for Social Security disability benefits, odds are that your claim has been denied. Please don’t give up. People with legitimate illnesses and disabilities often get turned down twice and then must go before a judge to obtain benefits. If you have filed a claim and been denied, I will help you gather evidence of your medical problems, build strong documentation that proves your disability or illness according to the government’s standards, and determine the best way to present your case. I will work with you to maximize your chance of success.
