$200,000 Settlement!
Brad (name changed) who was in his 50s when he injured his shoulder, had restrictions making it so he could not return to his good paying job. He was looking at his workers compensation benefits ending soon and sought help from Harvey and Carpenter.

Donald applied for Social Security and was denied. Our office helped him with the appeal process. J. Chris Carpenter represented him at the hearing. One issue was why his symptoms seems to come on around the time of his application and not earlier.
