Sims & Stakenborg, P.A.
If you are disabled and unable to work, you might be entitled to Social Security Disability benefits (SSD) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI). It is important that you apply for Social Security Disability as soon as you believe that the disability will prevent you from working for 12 months or more. Unfortunately, the process of making an application is long and may be overwhelming when added to the devastation of being ill and unemployed.
We are Social Security Disability attorneys and deal with the Social Security Administration every day. We understand the complex federal regulations and the requirements that govern the Social Security Disability process. Statistically, people who are represented by a qualified Social Security attorney have a better chance of obtaining the benefits to which they are entitled. Dorothy Clay Sims and Elizabeth Stakenborg have a combined total of over 40 years of experience.
At Sims & Stakenborg, P.A., we utilize software that provides up-to-date changes in medical literature and we access current technology that tells us the effects of combining medications. Our senior partner, Dorothy Clay Sims, has given hundreds of seminars to doctors and lawyers on legal and medical issues. Our law firm maintains a data bank of thousands of research pages on multiple medical and psychiatric conditions.
When you contact us, we will respond within 24 hours. When you decide to hire us, a partner will be handling your Social Security Disability case from beginning to end. Questions are welcome at any time, consultations are free and fees are paid only if your case is won. We would appreciate the opportunity to put our experience to work for you.
