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.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a lawyer to file for Social Security Disability?
No. You can apply on your own, but an attorney can help with the application, supporting evidence, and appeals if your claim is denied. If you live in or around Bountiful, our local office gives you a nearby team to turn to throughout the claims process.
What should I do if my disability claim is denied?
You may be able to appeal the decision. The appeals process can involve several stages, so it is important to respond within the required deadlines and provide additional evidence that supports your claim.
How much does a disability lawyer cost?
Disability attorneys typically work on a contingency basis, so fees are generally paid only if benefits are awarded and are subject to Social Security Administration rules.
