Zerbe & Pence

Zerbe & Pence operates out of Suite 300 at 10 Hale St in downtown Charleston, West Virginia, offering legal services that span Social Security disability, criminal defense, and DUI law. The firm holds a 5-star rating on Yelp, reflecting the quality of service clients have experienced. For West Virginians facing a disability denial or a first-time application, having an attorney who also understands the broader legal landscape can be a practical advantage. The firm's location in the heart of Charleston puts it close to state and federal offices that handle disability cases in the region. Whether a client is just starting the Social Security application process or has already received a denial notice, Zerbe & Pence can step in at multiple stages. Their range of practice areas also means clients dealing with overlapping legal issues, such as a disability claim alongside a legal matter that affects their record, have a single firm to turn to.

Zerbe & Pence helps clients in Charleston and surrounding West Virginia communities pursue Social Security disability benefits, whether they are applying for the first time or fighting a denial. The firm can represent clients at administrative hearings before an Administrative Law Judge, assist with Appeals Council submissions, and advise on how criminal history or pending DUI matters might interact with a disability case. Their combined knowledge of criminal defense and Social Security law gives clients a more complete picture of how different legal situations can affect each other.

When you contact Zerbe & Pence, the firm will review your situation to understand where you are in the Social Security process. If you have already been denied, they can evaluate your denial notice and help determine the best path forward, whether that means requesting reconsideration or scheduling a hearing. Clients are kept informed at each stage, and the firm works to make sure all deadlines are met, since missing appeal windows in Social Security cases can result in having to start the process over from scratch.

Zerbe & Pence serves clients in Charleston and throughout Kanawha County, as well as other communities across West Virginia.
