I have 30 years of expertise winning Social Security for clients in Contra Costa, Alameda, San Francisco, and Marin counties.  I have successfully represented hundreds of clients unable to work due to the whole range of physical and psychiatric disabilities, including bipolar disorder, spinal injuries, rheumatoid arthritis, depression, repetitive stress injuries, chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia. I served as an expert for the Volunteer Legal Services Program, SSI for Kids Project of the San Francisco State Bar Association and was honored by the California Supreme Court for my pro bono work on behalf of disabled Social Security claimants.  Ms. Mann worked with the Hawkins Center as an expert on issues relating to Social Security work incentives. I earned her B.A. degree from Reed College and her J.D. degree from the University of San Francisco Law School.
