Portland, Oregon, Social Security Law Attorney
The successful pursuit of a Social Security Disability (SSD) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI) claim can be a challenging, drawn-out and, ultimately, heart-breaking affair.
The Social Security Administration turns down almost 65 percent of people who first apply for disability. Most who appeal are denied again. In addition, each year, over 1 million claimants give up on their claim, while continuing to suffer from serious and catastrophic physical and mental/emotional medical challenges.
Fortunately, success can often be achieved with a fight, and with a knowledgeable and persistent attorney at your side. Approximately a half million individuals who continue fighting for their rights eventually win the benefits they are entitled to.
At the Social Security law firm of Richard A. Sly, Attorney at Law, we have helped individuals in the Portland, Oregon, and Southwest Washington areas fight for and obtain the disability payments they need to pay medical bills, keep their homes and retirement accounts, and pay for activities of daily living. Social Security disability attorney lawyer Richard A. Sly has:
- Practiced Social Security disability and Supplemental Security Income law for over 30 years
- Handled thousands of Social Security disability and Supplemental Security Income claims, including hundreds of appealed claims before both administrative law judges and the Appeals Counsel in Virginia as well as cases in the United States District Court for the District Court for the District of Oregon, and the Circuit Court of Appeal for the 9th Circuit
If you are considering filing or appealing a Social Security Disability Insurance Benefit (SSD, DIB, RSDI) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI) claim, we can help. Our office knows exactly what circumstances can needlessly delay a claim, and is fully familiar with the medical and "human" information needed to get the attention of Social Security Administration officials.
