Your Trusted Legal Advocate
For SSD And SSI Benefits
When disability prevents people from working, attorney Joe Nugent understands the challenges they face. He knows how the Social Security Disability (SSD) system works, and at Joseph Nugent, Attorney at Law, he and his paralegal Nancy Jachim help clients through every step of the process. Whether clients need assistance with their initial application or have been denied benefits, he works tirelessly to improve their chances of approval. He also assists his clients in obtaining Supplemental Security Income (SSI) when appropriate.
He has one attribute that most benefits lawyers do not have. He has a serious condition, multiple sclerosis, so he knows the anxiety and frustration people experience when they cannot work. This personal experience makes him an empathetic, high-energy, never-say-die advocate for his clients’ interests. Joe combines his legal knowledge with a genuine understanding to fight for the benefits his clients deserve.

With Every Kind Of Serious Disability
At Joseph Nugent, Attorney at Law, attorney Nugent has helped individuals dealing with spine and neck problems, blindness and vision problems, respiratory conditions, rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue, bipolar disorder, heart conditions, epilepsy, diabetes, cancer, stroke, multiple sclerosis, and many other disabling conditions. He understands that each person faces unique challenges when their disability prevents them from working.
He works closely with these individuals to gather the medical evidence needed to support their claims and helps them present their cases effectively to the Social Security Administration. If their medical records are unpersuasive, he works with providers until the records reflect the seriousness of their injury or illness. If he applies for benefits and they are turned down, he will keep going back until the benefits that his clients paid for over the years are theirs.
