The Social Security Administration (SSA) does allow claimants to represent themselves with the help of a non-attorney advocate. However, it’s in your best interests to work with a licensed attorney. This is especially true when it comes to disability law since the attorney is much more likely to know about case law and Social Security regulations that apply to your situation. Another benefit of working with a licensed attorney is that he or she can represent you in federal court. The Social Security Administration sets the fee for all representation on a SSD matter, regardless of whether the person representing you is an experienced social security attorney or a non-attorney. With this information, it really doesn’t make sense to use anyone but a licensed attorney like Kay Dansby.

Social security is complex and highly specialized, which means you shouldn’t work with just a general attorney. Kay Dansby has significant training in disability law, with over 17 years representing clients throughout Alabama and Georgia.

At the Dansby Law Firm, we understand that you’re in a difficult and frustrating situation. Even though your disability prevents you from working, you still need income to support yourself and your family. We invite you to contact our office in Montgomery, AL at 334-834-7001 to learn more about the process of filing an appeal when you have received a denial letter for SSDI benefits. You pay nothing upfront if you decide to retain our firm since our fee comes directly from your SSDI back payments.
