Here are a few steps you can take to find a Social Security lawyer:
- Ask for recommendations: Talk to your friends, family, and doctor to see if they have any recommendations for Social Security lawyers.
- Search online: There are several online directories of Social Security lawyers. You can search for lawyers by location, specialty, and experience.
- Contact your local bar association: Your local bar association may have a referral service that can connect you with Social Security lawyers in your area.
