DIANNA CANNON FOCUSES ON DISABILITY LAW
Ms. Cannon’s interest in Social Security law began during law school. At that time, few firms were helping people file for SSD and SSI benefits. However, many people needed help because they were denied, even when they were sick. They were denied even if their medical condition kept them from working. Therefore, Ms. Cannon knew this was an important area of the law to many people.
