How They Can Help

The attorneys at Cram Harder Wells Baron & Manning PC assist clients with every stage of the Social Security disability process, from initial applications through administrative hearings and federal court appeals if necessary. They also represent injured workers navigating Oregon's workers compensation system and help individuals and families evaluate bankruptcy options when medical bills or lost wages have created unmanageable debt. This cross-practice capability allows the firm to look at a client's full picture rather than a single isolated legal issue.

What to Expect

When a new client contacts the firm, an attorney reviews the relevant facts of their case and identifies which practice areas apply. For a disability client, this may involve requesting medical records, analyzing work history, and identifying the correct disability category under Social Security rules. For those also facing financial pressure, the firm can simultaneously evaluate whether bankruptcy protection is appropriate. Clients are guided through each step, with regular updates on where their case stands and what comes next.

Service Area

The firm serves clients in Eugene and throughout Lane County, Oregon, with additional reach to communities across the southern Willamette Valley.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Cram Harder Wells Baron & Manning PC handle both my disability case and my bankruptcy at the same time?
Yes, because the firm practices in both Social Security law and bankruptcy law, it can address both issues, which is particularly useful since disability income and pending claims can affect your bankruptcy filing.
What happens to my disability back pay if I file for bankruptcy?
This is an important and nuanced question, and the answer depends on the timing of your bankruptcy filing relative to when your disability benefits are awarded. An attorney at the firm can walk through how Oregon and federal exemption rules apply to your situation.
Does the firm represent clients at Social Security hearings in Eugene?
Yes, the firm represents clients before administrative law judges at Social Security hearings, which is often a critical stage for claimants who have been denied at the initial and reconsideration levels.
What is the difference between Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy?
Chapter 7 is a liquidation bankruptcy that can discharge most unsecured debts relatively quickly, while Chapter 13 allows you to restructure and repay debts over a three to five year plan. An attorney at the firm can help determine which option fits your financial situation.
Can I file for workers compensation and Social Security disability at the same time?
Yes, and many people do, though receiving both benefits simultaneously can affect the amount you receive from each source due to offset rules. The firm can help you understand how these programs interact.
How do I know if my condition qualifies for Social Security disability benefits?
Social Security evaluates whether your condition prevents you from doing any substantial gainful work, taking into account your age, education, work history, and medical evidence. An attorney at the firm can review your situation and give you a realistic assessment of your claim.
