Disability Heroes Add us as a preferred source on Google

Every disability law practice starts with a story. A career that fell apart. A client who changed everything. A case that hit too close to home. Disability Heroes is a conversation series about the people behind Social Security disability law: who they are, how they fight for their clients, and what they have learned building a practice that works. One guest, one practice, and an unhurried conversation that covers the personal side and the business side in equal measure. Most guests represent SSDI and SSI claimants through applications, appeals, and ALJ hearings. Some are disability attorneys. Some are EDPNAs and other non-attorney representatives. All of them do difficult, largely invisible work, and this show exists to put it on the record under their own names. Episodes get into the craft and the operations together: hearing preparation and what actually moves an administrative law judge, gathering and organizing medical evidence, keeping clients steady through waits measured in years, continuing disability reviews and overpayment notices, and the economics of a contingency practice. Expect the intake decisions that shape a caseload, hiring and training the first few employees, and what technology has genuinely changed about disability law firm operations versus what it has only promised. Guests disagree with each other on plenty of it, and those disagreements are left in. Episodes run about thirty to sixty minutes, with guests from solo practices to national firms. Hosted by Will Yang and produced by Chronicle.
