Applying for SSDI and SSI disability benefits can be a confusing and frustrating experience. Denials are discouraging and loss of income and health benefits creates additional stress for disabled workers.

For more than 20 years, I have helped disabled adults with SS disability claims--in Michigan from 1988 to 2005 and since 2006 in Florida. I am a member of both NOSSCR (National Organization of Social Security Claimant Representatives) and NADR (National Association of Disability Representatives).

I am Kathy Powell McSteen, a non-attorney professional representative authorized by SSA to assist disabled claimants. I strive to make the process of pursuing a Social Security disability claim less stressful and more successful for my clients. Every case is important to me.
