Guest guest Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 Judy, I have read your story and the replies. A lawyer would help, but I'm not sure if you can afford one. Two ideas came to mind: 1. See if you can find a women's law project in your area. They might take on your case for free (pro bono.) Look for things like Women's Yellow Pages, Chamber of Commerce Women In Business, etc. 2. Call your U.S. Congressperson. I used to work for Social Security in the early 1970s. When a Congressman (they were men back then) called, our supervisors rang a loud buzzer and we had to stop what we were doing and scramble to find the case file ASAP. Those calls get action! So...spend the day with your phone book. It takes time but you sound like someone the SSDI system was set up to help. And I'm sorry, it shouldn't have to be this hard. Hang in there, sister! C.
