I had already been denied once before Stephanie took my case. She hit the ground running from day 1 with me! Even though most days it was extremely difficult to function both mentally and physically - Stephanie was always respectful, patient, and understanding while assisting me through the haze a...nd confusion of the disability application process. She provided Gold Star representation and service - going over and beyond my expectations!

If you are looking for a SS attorney, do not hesitate to contact Stephanie. She is extremely knowledgeable and very responsive to any questions you have throughout the case. Working with her is not like dealing with other lawyers. She's very down to earth and she always responds personally to emails.... She makes it a point to become very familiar with your individual case. I had another lawyer prior to her who I never actually saw or spoke to until the day of the hearing. He knew nothing about me once we were in front of the judge. Not so with Stephanie. She was flawlessly prepared and ready to go- even in front of a really tough ALJ. Thanks to her, I am finally receiving my benefits and can breathe easy for the first time in ages. I would recommend her 110% to anyone!

I attended the hearing in person with Stephanie after my initial claim was denied and thanks to her professionalism and years of experience, she was extremely well prepared (and prepared me, too) to argue the case in front of the ALJ, resulting in a favorable decision. We won the case! Without Step...hanie's help, it would not have happened. She is expertly keen at eliciting and organizing the key and relevant information that the Social Security Administration, and the ALJ in my case, are looking for and that you need to provide if you have any hope of having your Social Security Disability Insurance claim approved. Simply put, she's the best!

Stephanie O. Joy has been extremely helpful while being my advocate in a legal situation. Her knowledge is extensive and she was always able to answer my questions in a quick and timely manner. She guided me through the process professionally but always with patience and understanding. For lay people... unfamiliar with legal processes, such as myself, most legal matters can be very stressful. Stephanie inspires confidence and removes that stress component. I m very grateful for that.
