This is part one of my interview with Colorado Springs, Colorado attorney Tomasz Stasiuk.  Like me, Tomasz publishes a Social Security disability blog along with his firm website, and Tomasz encourages dialog with readers of his Internet publication.  Social Security disability is different from other areas of law in that claimant's lawyers like Tomasz or myself cannot observe our colleagues when they try cases.  This is done to protect the privacy of the claimants but I think it makes it more difficult for disability lawyers to improve our craft.  Conversations like this one – between colleagues facing similar issues can help bridge this gap.  I hope you enjoy part one of my conversation with Tomasz Stasiuk.

With disability cases taking up to three years start to finish, you should feel confident that your lawyer has a plan for managing your case during this long period of time. Very few consumer law cases take more than a few months – you need to know that your lawyer is capable of managing your case over an extended period of time. My guest this episode is attorney Ron Miller. Ron is the managing partner of the Disability Law Group based in California. Ron's firm is a multi-state firm in that he and his lawyers travel throughout the country to represent claimants in many other States. Having known Ron for several years, I often wondered how he and his staff managed to keep so much information organized and to prepare so well for disability hearings. Today, you will get a glimpse into how Ron approaches this issue. When I approached Ron about appearing on ssdRadio and asked if he had a specific topic in mind, he immediately expressed his desire to talk about the level of service that an attorney ought to provide to his clients. This is the first part of my interview with Ron – I'll post the remainder of our discussion in a later show. I hope you enjoy learning about top notch client service from a lawyer who works to provide this level of service every day.

Kate writes to ask how she can terminate her lawyer, who she says is not doing his job. 2. Kenneth writes to say that he has a significant heart problem and his current cardiologist supports him but the previous cardiologist has the attitude "if he can walk, he is not disabled." Kenneth wonders if the first cardiologist's attitude is going to doom his case.
