Ssi Benefits

After being denied twice went to Ms Scott about my brother case, long story short she won the case! Thank you for all your help and keeping us in the loop through the process.

Phone call

Ms. Scott explained to me over the phone what steps I need to take to start my claim. She is very nice and very patient. I will continue to use her for guidance.

She won our SSI case

I don't want to get too detailed but let it be known Erica Michelle Scott handled our social security case with a high degree of professionalism. She was courteous and responsive to all our questions and needs. I highly recommend her.

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.
