Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Social Security Disability Lawyer

Social Security Disability claims require systematic documentation and a strategic approach to protect your rights and claims. At Martin & Lerda, we assist people throughout the Social Security Disability evaluation and litigation process.

Applying for Social Security Disability benefits can be complex and requires significant documentation, an understanding of disability claims law, and skilled advocacy. Our attorney can provide the representation you need to collect the benefits to which you are entitled.

If you have suffered a personal injury or illness and your doctor believes you should be receiving Social Security Disability benefits, contact us immediately for an initial consultation or case evaluation.

The Social Security Administration defines disabling conditions and then sets criteria for eligibility. Most people do not fit within the exact definitions provided by the SSA. A skilled attorney can effectively identify your illness and articulate your need for disability benefits. Our firm has extensive experience in gathering evidence and arguing your case. We will take a comprehensive approach to your case to ensure that the SSA understands your unique illness and the ways in which it affects your life and limits your ability to work.
