Jackson & MacNichol
Disability Attorney in South Portland, Maine

About Jackson & MacNichol
Jackson and MacNichol operates out of South Portland, Maine, just across the bridge from Portland, giving the firm a practical location for clients throughout Cumberland County and beyond. The firm dedicates its practice exclusively to Social Security law, which means every aspect of how they work, from the intake process to hearing preparation, is built around disability claims rather than divided across multiple legal areas. South Portland is part of the greater Portland metropolitan area, and many residents in this region face the challenging process of applying for and appealing Social Security disability benefits. Jackson and MacNichol's toll-free number at (800) 524-3339 reflects the firm's intent to be reachable for clients across Maine, not just those who can easily visit the Western Avenue office in person.
