Schilling Law - Eau Claire, WI

Over Four Decades of Dedicated Disability Advocacy in Eau Claire

When chronic illness, debilitating medical conditions, or serious injuries prevent you from working, securing government disability benefits can mean the difference between financial stability and poverty. Yet, the Social Security Administration denies most initial disability applications, leaving hardworking individuals stranded in complex appeals. Choosing to hire an attorney with decades of focused experience in federal administrative law levels the playing field. At Schilling Law, founding attorney Jill R. Schilling has spent over forty years guiding western Wisconsin residents through Social Security disability regulations with personal empathy and seasoned skill.

Tenacious Representation for Social Security Disability and SSI Claims

Unlike national high-volume advertising firms where clients rarely speak with their actual lawyer, Schilling Law is a small, friendly practice where the attorney remains directly involved in every phase of your case. Operating alongside workers' compensation lawyers and accident and injury lawyers who regularly refer complex disability matters to her office, attorney Jill Schilling assists clients with:

• Navigating initial Social Security Disability Insurance applications and compiling medical records from treating physicians.
• Filing timely requests for reconsideration following initial claim denials by state disability determination agencies.
• Comprehensive hearing preparation and zealous representation before administrative law judges at regional hearings offices.
• Establishing eligibility for Supplemental Security Income and coordinating Medicare and Medicaid healthcare coverage.
• Handling complex appeals before the Social Security Appeals Council and federal courts when legal errors occur.

Respected Legal Heritage and Defense of Individual Rights

In addition to disability advocacy, Jill Schilling has long been recognized as a steadfast defender of civil liberties and individual constitutional rights in western Wisconsin. An active member of the Wisconsin Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, the Eau Claire County Bar Association, and the Chippewa Valley Civil Liberties Union, attorney Schilling brings courtroom acumen and integrity to every legal challenge. When you need an attorney who commands the respect of administrative judges and peers alike, Schilling Law delivers dedicated personal representation.
