Savino & Smollar P.C. formerly Caruso, Spillane, Attorneys at Law, was established in the 1950s and our attorneys currently have more than 100 years of collective experience which they put toward helping injured workers deal with their claims. When you work with us, you're on a first-name basis. Our firm doesn't use case numbers on our files because you're more than a number to us. We know who you are, how you've been hurt and we pick up the phone when you call. You will speak with one of our lawyers who will answer your questions, address your concerns and advocate for you to get the best possible settlement. Social Security Disability (SSD) benefits are awarded by the federal government to people who are totally disabled and unable to work for a year or longer. If your workplace injury has made it impossible for you to return to work of any kind for an extended period of time, you may qualify for this additional benefit.
