How They Can Help

Dudley DeBosier's Lafayette office helps clients pursue Social Security Disability Insurance and Supplemental Security Income benefits when a medical condition prevents them from maintaining gainful employment. They also represent clients in personal injury cases arising from accidents, and assist workers who have been hurt on the job in navigating Louisiana's workers compensation system. For clients whose claims have been denied by the Social Security Administration, the firm can guide them through the reconsideration and ALJ hearing appeals process, which is where many disability claims are ultimately won.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Dudley DeBosier in Lafayette handle Social Security disability cases?
Yes, Social Security law is one of their listed practice areas at the Lafayette office. They can assist with both initial disability applications and appeals for clients in the Acadiana area who have been denied benefits.
What is the difference between SSDI and SSI, and can the Lafayette office help with both?

My Social Security disability claim was denied. Can Dudley DeBosier help me appeal?

Can I pursue both a workers compensation claim and a Social Security disability claim at the same time?
In many situations, yes, though receiving both benefits simultaneously can affect the amount you receive from each program due to offset rules. An attorney at the Lafayette office can explain how these claims interact under Louisiana and federal law.

Social Security disability attorneys are typically paid through a federally regulated contingency fee, meaning you pay nothing upfront and the attorney only collects a fee if you win, subject to a cap set by federal law. Confirm the specific arrangements with the Lafayette office when you call.
