Services Offered

The Social Security Disability Insurance program (SSDI) and the Supplemental Security Income program (SSI) are federal programs intended to help people who are unable to work due to their medical condition. Unfortunately, many people who apply for disability benefits are initially turned down, even though they actually do qualify for the program.

If you are applying for Social Security disability, or if you have been denied benefits, you should consult a lawyer who specializes in Social Security law. Social Security lawyer Gordon Gates helps people with Social Security disability and SSI claims in Maine and New Hampshire. He helps disabled workers over the age of 55 throughout the United States.

There is no “up front” cost for Gordon Gates to take your case. There is only a fee if you receive Social Security disability benefits.

You can telephone or email attorney Gordon Gates, or ask for a free Social Security claim evaluation.
