Attorney for SSI Benefits
May 2003
I believe I'm having difficulty finding a job due to my
disability during this time and age. Can you recommend a good
SSI lawyer that specializes in disability so that it might be
possible for me to collect SSI benefits.

Try Nancy McCombs at 800-511-2355 or 415-678-2626. Her
assistants are a little spacey, but she is a very capable
lawyer who won a difficult SSI case for my mother.

Try the folks at Disability Rights Advovcates. Or Phyllis
Olin. Her number is 526-7217. I don't know if she is still
practicing, but if not, she can probably give you some referrals.

The Hawkins Center in Richmond is a non-profit that
handles SSI cases, no charge or sliding scale. Don't have
the number off the top of my head, but they're in the book.
Good Luck!

Richard Gutstadt in downtown Oakland did a great job for me when
I had to appeal an SSI ruling stating I shouldn't have been
awarded disability in the first place (I'd had a stroke), and
that I owed them the $48,000 in payments collected over 2
years. Got the ruling reversed completely. A smart guy with a
sense of humor and a social conscience. (510) 451-8370
