"We help bridge the gap between the legal challenges of the Social Security benefits process."

Social Security Disability Attorney in Rogersville, Tennessee

If you are disabled and unable to work, you may be entitled to Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits. However, the road to achieving those benefits is fraught with impediments, delays and documentation, and many people who truly deserve relief are denied the benefits they need.

At the Law Office of Mark A. Skelton, we help bridge the gap between the legal challenges of the Social Security benefits process and the people who need relief. We understand the difficulties you are facing and are prepared to help you achieve results.

Denied. Do Not Be Discouraged.

Do You Need Help With a Social Security Disability Claim or Appeal?

If you have recently filed for SSDI or SSI benefits, we can help you by intervening in the process early on. If your initial claim was denied, do not be discouraged, because the overwhelming majority of initial claims are denied. By enlisting the help of an experienced attorney right after you file your claim, you may have a better chance at securing benefits.
