Testimonial
In August of 2022 I needed a representative for my disability case. I was turned down after filing the application myself. I saw Sage Disability on my Facebook page and called. These people are some of the best professionals I have met. They are very thorough. My advocate, Sandra Lutz, presented my case in November 2023. In December 2023 I was awarded full disability benefits. Sandra and her team worked very hard, gathering all the medical evidence needed for this to happen. I was kept in the loop every step of the way. Thank you guys. High recommendations to all.

What Our Employees are Saying
As a practitioner in this industry for 30 years, and a solo practitioner for the last 16+, it recently became clear that the direction SSA is headed in its treatment of the disabled community is not only challenging but also alarming. It was clear to me that significant changes were going to be necessary to most eƯectively and aggressively represent my clients. As I was exploring my options, an opportunity to join the Sage Disability team became available and, wow, am I glad it did! The Sage Disability team is comprised of industry experts that are forward-thinking and laser-focused on effciently and vigorously representing clients. Not only that, but they’re a fun-loving and enterprising group of people! It’s been a wonderful transition back into a teamwork platform as we fight together for those who need it most.
As someone who has spent years working for the people and as a paralegal navigating various legal systems, I’ve found that Social Security is one area where many individuals have no idea where to begin or how complex the process can be. Many people never expect to go through it, and when they do, they often feel lost. Working at Sage Disability, it has given me the opportunity to help so many people— especially those without family support or guidance—navigate the Social Security process with confidence. I enjoy working at Sage Disability because we are all family-oriented, and we bring that mindset into our relationships with our clients. We genuinely care about making a positive impact and guiding each and every one of our clients through a process that can feel overwhelming and, at times, scary. I can honestly say, whoever chooses us, chooses a family to fight not only with them but for them!
