I work at a disability law firm, when i first started i was in the intake department fielding calls from ppl who wanted help getting disability and helping to sort through who had a viable claim and who didnt. And the amount of white ppl with (per SSA standards) non-severe conditions and lack of medical care talking about the government “just giving my money to the illegals and the n—-“ was WILD. Like, my guy, YOU dont qualify for “your money” based on the SSA guidelines, why are you making up scenarios?!???

Just wanna say, thanks for what you and the lawyers you work with do! I'm on disability, and it took me a while to get onto it. I ended up hiring a disability lawyer and they were super helpful!

Yeah I have been much happier since being on disability. It's been much less stressful, and I haven't had any Crohn's flare ups that put me in the hospital since I got on it! It's been so nice.

And again, thank you for what you do!
