Wilson and Gillissie Law Office - Cleveland, OH
Dedicated Social Security Disability Advocates
Wilson and Gillissie Law Office is a specialized legal practice located in the historic Warehouse District of Cleveland, Ohio. Unlike general practice firms that dabble in many areas of law, Wilson and Gillissie dedicates its entire practice exclusively to Social Security Disability law. This singular focus allows their attorneys to stay on the cutting edge of the complex regulations and procedural nuances of the Social Security Administration. For individuals in Northeast Ohio who are unable to work due to a medical condition, this firm serves as a vital lifeline, fighting to secure the financial benefits they have earned and deserve.
Guiding You Through the Bureaucracy
Navigating the federal disability system can be an overwhelming and frustrating experience, often filled with denials and delays. The attorneys at Wilson and Gillissie-Patricia Coughlin, Rebecca Gillissie, and Rachel Wilson-bring compassion and expertise to every case. They understand that their clients are often facing the most difficult physical and financial challenges of their lives. From the initial application to the final hearing before an administrative law judge, the firm provides hands-on representation designed to maximize the chances of a favorable outcome.
- Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI): Assisting workers who have paid into the system but can no longer maintain employment due to a severe impairment.
- Supplemental Security Income (SSI): Representing individuals with limited income and resources who meet the strict definition of disability.
- Disability Appeals: Expert handling of reconsiderations and hearings for claims that have been wrongfully denied.
- Medical Evidence Development: Working with treating physicians to gather the necessary documentation to prove the severity of a condition.
No Fee Unless You Win
Wilson and Gillissie operates on a contingency fee basis, which is standard for Social Security Disability cases but crucial for their clients' peace of mind. This means that clients pay absolutely no attorney fees unless the firm is successful in winning benefits. If benefits are awarded, the fee is regulated by federal law and is paid directly from the past-due benefits, ensuring that clients never have to worry about out-of-pocket legal expenses while they are unable to work.
"We don't just handle your file; we tell your story. Our sole focus is getting you the benefits you need to live."
