Winning your Claim Is Our Priority
Why is it important to hire a firm that only practices disability law?
The attorneys at Bemis, Roach and Reed have more than 100 years combined experience representing clients in insurance claims. Many firms practice disability law “on-the-side”. They do this usually to supplement their Personal Injury practice so they typically place their case importance on PI first and disability second. Bemis, Roach & Reed is a Disability Law Firm first and last. We are arguably THE DISABILITY LAW FIRM in Texas. Please take the time to read our reviews and let our previous clients speak for us. You will be hard pressed to find a more highly regarded disability firm in the state.
Our Areas of Practice
Social Security Disability Law
If you are considering filing an application for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) in Texas or have already filed and been denied benefits, our attorneys may be able to help.
Sadly over 67% of applicants are initially denied. Our attorneys have extensive experience preparing successful disability applications and will work to ensure that your claim satisfies the Social Security Administration’s exacting requirements giving you the best chance possible to receive the disability benefits you need and deserve. In the event your claim is denied, an Austin Social Security disability lawyer at Bemis, Roach & Reed can guide you through each step in the appeals process, from the first appeal to the federal district courtroom, if necessary.
Long-Term Disability Law
Long term disability insurance companies routinely deny coverage having decided that they are not governed by the state laws, but by federal ERISA law.
As a result, people suffering with disabilities are forced to navigate the highly intimidating Federal Court system. The application forms can be confusing and involve many deadlines that need to be met in order to receive a favorable judgment for LTD benefits. Luckily your chances of success go up as much as 50% when filing a claim with an experienced long-term disability lawyer at your side. Bemis, Roach & Reed is privileged to have Lonnie Roach as a partner—one of the nation’s leading Long-Term Disability attorneys. He is perhaps the most widely published and consulted authority on Long-Term Disability law in Texas.

My newest appeal was filed for me, my medical records and case history sorted for me, and I could finally focus on my appointments and treatment with a little less worry. Everything was explained to me in a way that made sense, the process was set out in an easy to understand way. And, just like that, my claim was accepted!”
