Experienced SSDI & SSI Lawyers in Frederick, Maryland

When You Need Social Security Benefits, We're Here to Help

When you are in need of Social Security benefits, the legal process can be complicated and frustrating. After going through the application process, you still might be denied. At Slater & Slater, P.C., we work with you to secure the Social Security Disability or SSI payments you are entitled to. We understand this is a difficult time for you, and aim to secure the benefits you need to get back on your feet.

Fighting for disability benefits shouldn't be a battle you face alone. While national firms treat you like a case number, we treat you like family. Our Frederick-based attorneys personally guide clients throughout Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and West Virginia—from that first confusing denial letter through every appeal until you receive the benefits you deserve. We answer your calls, explain every step in plain English, and stand beside you in hearings. Because when your health and livelihood are at stake, you need more than a lawyer—you need an advocate who truly cares.

No Fee Unless We Win

We handle cases on a contingent fee basis. That means we only get paid a fee if we win the case. For details on attorney's fees, please see our Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) page.
