Steven Earl’s practice focuses on Social Security Disability Law.  He has represented thousands of individuals in their claims for Social Security benefits.  This representation has required hundreds of hearings before administrative law judges as well as appeals to the Social Security Appeals Council and in the United States District Court.  He is a member of the National Organization of Social Security Claimant’s Representatives, the Colorado Bar Association, and the Colorado Trial Lawyers Association.

Prior to working as a disability attorney, Steven focused primarily on administrative law at the local, state, and national levels working with government agencies, non-profit organizations and private law firms.  After graduating from the University of Denver Sturm College of Law, Steven clerked for the Honorable Elizabeth Weishaupl and interned at the Attorney General’s Office and the Colorado Solar Energy Industries Association.  During law school, he held leadership roles in various law student organizations, participated in several moot court competitions, and worked as an editor for the University of Denver’s Water Law Review.

Prior to attending law school, Steven worked for the National Park Service as a member of the Rocky Mountain National Park Trail Crew and held various seasonal positions in several other National Parks including Yellowstone, Mt Rainier, Denali and Shenandoah.

Steven enjoys spending his free-time recreating in Colorado’s mountains in such activities as hiking, snowboarding, and rock-climbing.  He developed a passion for these activities from growing up in close proximity to the Wasatch Mountains surrounding Salt Lake City where he attended the University of Utah for his undergraduate education.
