I reached out to RSDSA and found the name of a group leader and councilor in my city. She in turn reached out to her community and provided me the name of an attorney in town. Of the three SSDI attorneys I contacted, I hired the referred lawyer. It feels really good to have a plan, to have the support, to hear that I really should win.
I don't talk very much about my RSD to anyone - this feels like a very positive step.
