How They Can Help
Robert Halas helps clients apply for Social Security Disability Insurance and Supplemental Security Income benefits, represent themselves through the appeals process if initially denied, and prepare for hearings before Administrative Law Judges.

For clients whose disability stems from a work accident or another party's actions, having an attorney who understands all three areas can be a significant advantage.
