Derifield Law Office, P.S., Attorney Joni M. Derifield

Derifield Law Office, P.S. is situated on the 20th floor of a prominent downtown Seattle building, giving the firm a central location that is accessible to clients from across King County and the broader Seattle metro area. Attorney Joni M. Derifield focuses her practice on Social Security and disability law, areas that require a detailed understanding of federal regulations, medical evidence standards, and the administrative hearing process. The firm operates under a focused approach, handling matters related to Social Security and disability law rather than a broad range of practice areas. For individuals in the Seattle area who have been denied disability benefits or are just beginning the application process, having an attorney who concentrates in this specific field can make a meaningful difference in how a case is prepared and presented.

Attorney Derifield and her team assist clients at every stage of the disability claims process, from preparing the initial application to representing claimants at hearings before Administrative Law Judges and, when necessary, pursuing appeals in federal court. The firm helps clients gather and organize medical records, respond to Social Security Administration requests, and build the strongest possible record in support of their disability claim.

When you contact Derifield Law Office, you can expect an initial consultation to review your situation and discuss the current status of your claim or application. From there, the firm will outline what steps are needed, whether that means helping you file for the first time or taking over an existing appeal. Throughout the process, the firm works to keep clients informed about deadlines, hearing dates, and what documentation the Social Security Administration will need.

Derifield Law Office, P.S. serves clients in Seattle and throughout the greater King County area, as well as other parts of Western Washington.
