An invitation to speak at a national conference is an honor reserved for attorneys shaping the field—which is why we weren’t surprised when Marisa Burkett was asked to present at a national conference for Social Security claimant representatives in Baltimore. Her presence did not go unnoticed.

Following her presentation, a prominent attorney who owns a national firm approached Peter—who had been busy taking photos like a proud dad—and said:
“Do you realize you hired the best federal appeals attorney in the country?”

Recognition like that speaks volumes—but the work she does for our clients each and every day speaks even louder.

*Marisa is the speaker in the middle.

FAQ: Do I qualify for Social Security Disability?

To qualify, you must have a medical condition that prevents you from working and is expected to last at least 12 months or result in death.

Your work history and your ability to perform any type of work, whether in a new role or returning to a previous job, are also considered.

If this sounds like your situation, it’s worth taking a closer look to better understand your options.
