Firm Description

Living with a disability can be difficult, especially when you can't work. You may be struggling to make ends meet. Whether you are suffering as a result of a sudden, devastating injury or a long-term disability, you may be entitled to monthly financial benefits through federal Social Security disability programs.

We're On Your Side!

Do you feel intimidated about applying for benefits? Does the stack of paperwork for your SSD application make you want to give up? Have you already applied but been denied? Are you wondering whether you are even eligible for Social Security?

At Burgess & Christensen (formerly The Law Office of Laurence L. Christensen, P.C.), we can answer these and other questions about disability benefits. Our firm focuses exclusively on disability law. Our Social Security Disability attorneys are accomplished leaders in this complicated field.

Over the course of more than 30 years, our firm has represented thousands of people with disabilities, working hard to get them the financial compensation and medical care they deserve. We look forward to helping you too.
