About the work
Our firm exists to help the largest number of underrepresented, vulnerable individuals in our community access the disability benefits they're entitled to. By the time a claim reaches a hearing, our clients have often waited years and been denied more than once. Representing them well at that stage is the most consequential thing we do — a favorable decision can mean medical care, stable housing, and financial security restored. We're looking for an experienced hearing attorney who takes that responsibility seriously and has the skill to deliver on it.
What you'd do
You'd carry a docket of roughly 20–35 hearings per month, owning each case from pre-hearing review through Appeals Council:
  • Review every hearing-level file at least 30 days out and again 7 days prior, identifying evidence gaps and directing the Case Manager to close them (Treating Source Statements, outstanding records).
  • Draft and file pre-hearing briefs for every hearing, plus On-the-Record requests and Five-Day Letters where warranted.
  • Present persuasive argument at hearing and cross-examine vocational and medical experts in a way that changes outcomes.
  • Handle post-hearing briefs, proffers, fee petitions, and Appeals Council appeals within deadline.
  • Share what works with the rest of the team in our monthly attorney roundtables, and give the Medical Records, Intake, and Case Management teams feedback that strengthens our cases.

What we're looking for
  • An active U.S. bar license in good standing.
  • A minimum of 500 SSA disability hearings personally handled.
  • Strong advocacy and cross-examination skills — you can challenge a VE or ME effectively and know the DOT, SCO, SOC, and ORS cold.
  • Command of SSA rules, current case law, and NOSSCR resources.
  • Comfort using modern case-management and AI-assisted tools to prep efficiently (we work in Litify, Chronicle, ERE, and more).
