Personal Attention for a Frustrating Process
Coats & Todd offers focused experience in the complex area of Social Security Disability law. As attorneys, we make it our business to know the law. As a law firm, we get to know our clients and give them hope.
Applying for Social Security Disability (SSDI) can be frustrating and depressing. Even with an attorney, it may take a year or more to be approved for benefits. We won't give up on your case. We will represent you through the entire appeals process, all the way to federal court if necessary.
Coats & Todd handles all disability claims, including SSDI, SSI and benefits for children, spouses and survivors. We are not afraid to take the hard cases. We go the extra mile to connect clients to good doctors and help find financial resources to assist you in bridging the gap until they receive benefits.
Experienced Leaders in Disability Law
Our attorneys have 40 years of combined experience in Social Security disability claims. Founding partners Catherine Coats and Robert Todd have practiced since 1992 and 1991, respectively. Both have served as president of the Dallas Association of Social Security Claimants Attorneys and both are active in professional and community organizations.
Our firm places a high emphasis on professional integrity. We make every effort to advance your claim. You get honest answers about your chances of success and about how long the process will take.
Some law firms use non-attorney "advocates" to handle cases. We think that is a disservice to disabled individuals who desperately need benefits. At Coats & Todd, you are represented from DAY ONE by a lawyer who knows the law and can represent you in hearings and court appeals.
Don't give up. We can help.
Many people give up after their initial claim is turned down. Did you know very few people are approved on their first application? The key to success is to keep seeing your doctors, to keep your attorneys informed about your treatment, and to inform us of any changes in your health or employment status.
