Agricultural and Occupational Injuries in Stanislaus County
Stanislaus County's agricultural economy means many Modesto-area residents have careers with significant physical demands. Repetitive strain injuries, back injuries, and work-related accidents are common in this region. Barbara M. Jacobson has extensive experience presenting these types of claims to the SSA, clearly demonstrating how a condition prevents you from performing not just your prior work, but any work available in the national economy.
We also handle cases arising from mental health disorders, serious illness, and developmental disabilities.
