“After being unsatisfied with my SSDI representative Mosaic Medical Community recommended, I used Jenny Simmons to represent me. Jenny is professional, efficient, and works tirelessly. She also advised me on what to do to help my case. Her assistant Ryan went into the SSA office on my behalf to get answers and ensure my case progressed smoothly. Jenny knows this complicated system very well and because of her, I was awarded SSDI.” -Florence, Bend, OR
“I am so thankful to Jenny for being willing to take my Social Security Disability case when I needed proper representation. Her professionalism, knowledge, and persistence was greatly appreciated and I couldn't have asked for a better result. Jenny's the best!" -Shawn, Bend, OR
“Jenny Simmons, Disability Advocacy Northwest, earned the equivalent of five stars for her efforts to successfully gain approval from Social Security for our adult daughter’s disability benefits. The case was complicated by our daughter’s young age and uncommon medical condition. Jenny efficiently, yet tenaciously, worked her way through the system to gain the highest monetary benefit available, with the decision made in a surprisingly short period of time (considering the reported backlog of disability applications with SSA (Ref: www.aarp.org)). In our opinion, Jenny and her staff, acting as our daughter’s advocate, achieved success far beyond what we believe we would have had with us acting on our own. Thank you, Jenny.” -Brenda and Joe, Bend, OR
“My son (an adult) was denied SSI benefits for his autism, so I reached out to Jenny Simmons for help. Jenny took on our case and assisted us throughout the appeal process. Her advice was invaluable and she gave us tremendous insight as to how the Social Security Administration makes their benefit determination. Finally, she provided documentation to the SSA that explained why my son was qualified for SSI. It made all the difference! SSA approved my son for benefits retroactive to 2022. If not for Jenny, my son would never have been approved. I advise anyone who is seeking SSI benefits to enlist the aid of a disability advocate and Jenny is the best!” -James in Bend, OR
“In October of 2014, after a long struggle with two lumbar discs, one of which was totally gone I had to leave work. A short time later an insurance company filed for disability on my behalf but once the case got a bit complicated they left me high and dry. I was left floundering. But, as it turned out, I had the incredible fortune of coming across Jenny Simmons. Jenny was simply amazing. As an attorney myself, I understand the complexity and time that is necessary to properly present a case. Jenny not only exceeded my expectations, she left me impressed with the knowledge, skill, work ethic and ability to communicate with me. We eventually had a contested hearing. Jenny obtained, reviewed, and compiled all my medical records in preparation for the hearing. She came up with alternative theories for my case and demonstrated to me the true depth of her knowledge in Social Security Disability law. Jenny was incredibly well prepared and did a great job representing me. At the hearing I really got to see Jenny shine. I found Jenny to be a dedicated and caring representative whose mission is to help the disabled get a fair shake. At a time when I felt my life was spinning out of control Jenny took my case and lifted a great weight off of me. Thank you Jenny Simmons.” -David Pardo Esq. (Ret.) in Redmond, OR
“Jenny was outstanding with my case. I was always kept up to date and knew what to expect as my case advanced. One key takeaway from this was as she said, never fill out any paperwork without checking in first. That is so spot on and she would always take the time to explain why and with her inside knowledge of SSD it made for an easy transition. I would and have recommended Jenny to others I know and she always has a smile.” -Rod in Madras, OR
“Jenny was always so helpful and able to answer any questions I had promptly. Every now and then I still have a question and she still responds efficiently. I loved working with her and am so thankful I had her direct me through the disability process. I am very grateful to work with someone so knowledgeable!!” -Kristin in Bend, OR
“I tried on my own to get disability for 2 years and was denied twice, I was referred to Jenny Simmons. My disability case was complicated. Jenny gathered all of my medical records, reviewed them and saw that I did have a strong case for disability. If it wasn't for Jenny I would not have gotten my disability. There is so much to know, when your trying to do this on your own. It's almost impossible. Sincerely I was ready to give up. So with that being said if I had to do it all again, I would definitely want to have an advocate, such as Jenny Simmons. You won't be sorry!” -Kristy in Bend, OR
“Jenny was always fast and efficient. Took great take care of me always put my needs first.” -Mike in Lakeview, OR
“Jenny was our lifesaver. Desperate and naïve, having no idea what or how to do what we needed to obtain Social Security benefits for our autistic son . She was amazing to work with representing our son Donovan. We were denied twice through Social Security, and she advocated on his behalf, and helped us with all the information we needed. We honestly would not have attained the Social Security, if it were not for her and her efforts. Highly recommend for anyone who is wanting Social Security benefits that has been denied previously.” -Naomi in Redmond, OR
