This attorney works with my very-trusted psychiatrist and is known as excellent for complex SSDI cases. Besides my mental issues, they brought in my physical issues- back-and-shoulder problems. My job devolved from white collar into stevedore job my 56-yr-old body could no longer handle.

Naturally, the LTD company wants me off their coffers. This lawyer can help with that, too. I trust them, but I need this letter soon. Maybe she's worked off her feet; I don't know. But I still need it. I was turned down the 1st time, despite my age and heavy duty meds, is because the "mental health assessor" who interviewed me for 12 minutes said if I had problems my whole life, I can suck it up and continue to work.
