Disability Lawyer in Bountiful
Supporting Bountiful Residents with Expert Legal Assistance
Bountiful is a community built on hard work and strong ties, and when a disability keeps you from earning the income your family depends on, the last thing you should have to face alone is a complicated federal benefits process. At Giles Disability Law, we’ve helped people across the greater North Salt Lake and Bountiful area cut through the confusion of Social Security Disability (SSD) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) claims, and we’re ready to do the same for you.
The numbers are stark: more than 70% of initial SSD applications are denied. Applicants who work with a disability attorney are far more likely to succeed at every stage. Here’s how we help:
- Walk you through the full application from the very first step.
- Make sure your medical records and documentation align with what the SSA actually requires.
- Represent you confidently if your claim is denied and needs to go to appeal or hearing.
We know the Bountiful area, and we know how much this process matters to the people who go through it. Let us put that knowledge to work for you.

Benefits
When your health affects your ability to work or support yourself, it can be hard to know where to start. We help Bountiful residents understand their options and take the next step
Social Security Disability (SSD)
If a disability is keeping you from working, SSD benefits may provide needed support. Our team helps you handle the paperwork and move through the claim process.
Supplemental Security Income (SSI)
If limited income is making things harder, SSI may help provide financial support. We help you understand eligibility and what to do next.
Conditions That May Qualify You for Disability Benefits
We regularly work with clients in Bountiful whose conditions include:
- Chronic health conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, and COPD.
- Neurological disorders, including epilepsy, MS, and traumatic brain injuries.
- Mental health diagnoses like depression, anxiety disorders, and PTSD.
Not sure whether your condition qualifies? That’s exactly what our initial consultations are for. We’ll review your situation, give you a straight answer, and explain your options — at no cost.
How We Handle Your Claim, Start to Finish
The SSD process has several stages, and each one can affect the outcome of your claim. Here’s how our team helps you move through the process:
- Initial Application: We help prepare your claim carefully, gather supporting documents, and submit the details SSA needs to review your case.
- Reconsideration & Appeals: Denied the first time? Unfortunately, that’s common, but it does not mean your claim is over. We help manage the next steps and keep the process moving.
- Hearing Representation: If your case goes before an administrative law judge, we help organize the evidence and present your claim clearly.
Each step is designed to reduce confusion, avoid unnecessary delays, and help you feel more prepared throughout the process.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a lawyer to file for SSD?
It’s not required, but the data speaks clearly: claimants with legal representation are significantly more likely to succeed, especially at the appeal and hearing stages. Given that most initial claims are denied, having an attorney in your corner from the start, or as soon as possible after a denial, is almost always worth it.
How much does a disability lawyer cost?
Our fees are entirely contingency-based. You pay nothing unless we win your case. There are no upfront costs and no hourly billing — just a percentage of back pay if your claim is approved.
My claim was already denied. Is it too late?
Not at all. Many of our clients come to us after a denial, and we’ve helped a significant number of them turn into positive outcomes. The appeals process has multiple levels, and having the right legal representation at that stage makes a real difference.
