    I have dedicated my career to helping disabled workers in Michigan obtain the benefits they deserve. I work at Disability Attorneys of Michigan exclusively handling disability and SSI cases before the Social Security Administration.

    32 years

Stu Johnson received his law degree from Detroit College of Law in 1991, was admitted to the Michigan Bar shortly thereafter. He focused his career exclusively on disability, starting his own Social Security disability firm in 1999. Since that time the firm has expanded to include VA disability and appeals to The United States District Court. Over the past twenty-five years he’s helped thousands of disabled people receive benefits.

"My mother taught preschool children with disabilities and she told us stories about "her kids" every night over dinner. Going into disability law was like entering the family business in a way."

Stu is a member of the State Bar of Michigan Social Security section and National Organization of Social Security Claimants’ Representatives.

THE BEST
I used Mr Johnson to help get my benefits in 1995, and since that time I refered atleast 8 people to Mr Johnson and they also had gotten approved for either SSI or SSD. I don't believe their is a better Social Security Lawyer in the State of MI
