Firm Information

Overview

At KBAR Legal Services LLP, we are dedicated to representing clients across central, western, and southern Indiana who are navigating the complexities of Social Security Disability and long-term disability claims and appeals. We believe that the legal profession is not merely a business, but an honorable calling that requires commitment and integrity.

As a team of women lawyers with diverse backgrounds, we bring a wealth of experience and expertise to every case we handle. Our founding attorney, Rutkowski, stands as a respected leader in the disability legal community, frequently sharing her knowledge through teaching and speaking engagements on Social Security Disability law both locally and nationally.

We understand that obtaining disability benefits can be a daunting and time-intensive journey. Unlike many law firms that offer only minimal assistance, we are committed to guiding you through every step of the process—from the initial application to complex appeals with the Social Security Disability Appeals Council and federal district court. Our reputation for handling intricate cases has earned us the trust of numerous attorneys who refer their clients to us.

Personalized service is our priority. We conduct a thorough assessment of your claim and provide ongoing support, ensuring you are well-prepared for your hearing.

We take time to listen to your concerns, answer your questions, and build a strong understanding of your needs—all without any charge or obligation to hire us. Our services operate on a contingency-fee basis, which means you only pay if we successfully secure your disability benefits.

To schedule your complimentary consultation, call us at 317-550-3586 or fill out our online contact form today. Let us stand by your side in this crucial journey.

How do I choose a lawyer?

Consider the following:

  • Comfort Level – Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
  • Credentials – How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
  • Cost – How are the lawyer's fees structured — hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
  • City – Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?

Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?

Here are a few to get you started:

  • How long have you been in practice?
  • How many cases like mine have you handled?
  • How often do you settle cases out of court?
  • What are your fees and costs?
  • What are the next steps?

Want to check lawyer discipline?

It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:

  • Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
  • Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
  • Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
