Trial-Tested Social Security Disability and Personal Injury Advocacy
If you have suffered a severe illness or injury that makes it impossible to continue working, securing your financial future becomes the highest priority. Navigating the Social Security Administration's complex requirements can be overwhelming. If you need to find a Social Security Disability attorney in South Bend who can cut through the red tape and fight for your benefits, Forbes Law Firm, LLC is ready to support you. Led by Rodney E. Forbes, an attorney with more than thirty years of dedicated legal experience, our firm serves clients throughout South Bend, Lafayette, Mishawaka, and the surrounding Indiana communities.
We know how difficult the application and appeal process can be, especially when dealing with severe physical or mental health issues. The vast majority of initial claims are denied, which can cause significant stress. When you hire a disability appeals lawyer from our team, you gain a dedicated advocate who ensures your medical records are complete, corrects past mistakes, and prepares you for hearings before an Administrative Law Judge. Our compassionate legal team handles everything so you can focus on your health.
Comprehensive Disability and Injury Services
At Forbes Law Firm, LLC, we focus our legal services on the areas of practice that most directly protect the health and livelihood of injured or disabled individuals:
- Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI): We help individuals who have paid Social Security taxes through their earnings and have acquired the required amount of work credits to qualify for benefits.
- Supplemental Security Income (SSI): We represent clients who do not have enough work credits but meet specific income and asset guidelines.
- Disabled Widows' and Adult Children Benefits: We guide eligible family members through the specific requirements to collect survivor or dependent benefits based on a family member's work record.
- Disability Appeals & Federal Court Litigation: If your claim has been denied, we will take your case through all stages of the appeal process, including preparing and presenting your case before an Administrative Law Judge and seeking federal court reviews.
- Personal Injury Representation: If you or a loved one has been seriously hurt in an accident caused by another's negligence, we fight to recover fair and full compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and pain.
Decades of Passionate, No-Risk Advocacy
Attorney Rodney E. Forbes is a graduate of the Indiana University School of Law and has been practicing since 1990. He is an active member of the National Organization of Social Security Claimants' Representatives (NOSSCR) and the Indiana Trial Lawyers Association. We believe that financial constraints should never stand in the way of justice. That is why we work on a strict contingency-fee basis, meaning you pay nothing upfront, and we only receive attorney fees if we successfully secure your benefits or settlement.
