Daggett Shuler attorney John Koontz has been featured in a North Carolina State Bar Newsletter.

John, a Social Security Disability Law specialist, explains just what his work entails and what led him to become a lawyer in a North Carolina State Bar Legal Specialization “Spotlight” article.

Social Security Disability law is a complex process, requiring one to meet strict qualifications and deadlines. He explains the two biggest challenges he faces while handling disability cases include, “the interplay or juncture of law and medicine followed by managing the client’s expectations.” Currently the government backlog and political environment have made it avery difficult and lengthy process to fight through the disability system.

It is critical that your lawyer understands how ones mental and physical conditions impact their ability to work. John also touches on the importance of being certified, “Certification is a measure or indicator of an attorney’s dedication to a practice area and the level at which it is being practiced.”

In the article John also commends the entire attorney team at Daggett Shuler citing their highest standards of professionalism and competency in their practice areas, and the highest standards of integrity and morality as individuals.

Ben and Spencer are an incredible team who made me feel genuinely heard and seen during one of the most difficult periods of my life. Throughout this process, Ben consistently showed me grace, kindness, and compassion. Ben’s genuine empathy helped me feel safe enough to trust the process, regain my footing, and begin focusing on moving forward. He genuinely cared about my well-being. I am incredibly grateful to both Ben and Spencer for their willingness to take on my case and for the dedication they brought to it. But beyond their professionalism and the work they do, it was their humanity that made the greatest impact on me. I will always appreciate the kindness, compassion, and respect they showed me when I needed it most.
