Workers Compensation 70%

I represent injured workers in the metropolitan Detroit area (including Macomb County and Oakland County) and also handle cases in the Jackson, Michigan area where we have a satellite office. I have handled cases at all levels of the workers compensation administrative system and into the state courts. I have pursued cases to the highest level possible, the Michigan Supreme Court, and have made personal appearances at the Michigan Supreme Court on behalf of my clients.

70%
Social Security & Disability 30%

I represent social security disability claimants and individuals seeking SSI in the metropolitan Detroit area (including Wayne, Oakland, Macomb and Washtenaw counties) as well as cases arising in the Jackson area where we maintain a satellite office. Generally, we represent individuals who have been denied by the social security district office and who are seeking review of the denial by an Administrative Law Judge. The appeal period from the denial is 60 days.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
