I have handled thousands of social security cases since 1976. I am a past president of The New York Social Security Bar Association and am presently a member of its board of trustees. I have received the Service Award by the New York Chapter of the Multiple Sclerosis Society, in recognition of my outstanding commitment in providing programs of the highest quality to the chapter. I am a perennial speaker at the chapter's annual law day.

            Additionally, I have been selected a New York Super Lawyer in the field of Social Security Disability. I am a member of the National Organization of Social Security Claimants Representatives (NOSSCR) and have served on its executive nominating committee, as well as its Board of Directors. I have lectured before the New York State Bar Association, Veterans groups, and union and health organizations.
