Hicks Law Firm Represents Individuals and Families Throughout Prestonsburg

Hicks Law Firm handles various legal matters, from Social Security Disability claims to family law issues to personal injury cases. We provide comprehensive legal representation to our clients, guiding them through every step of the legal process. Our Prestonsburg attorney represents the following types of cases:

  • Social Security Disability Claims: We help individuals apply for Social Security Disability benefits and appeal denied claims.
  • SSI Claims: Our legal team assists with applying for Supplemental Security Income (SSI), a needs-based program for those with limited income and resources.
  • SSDI Claim Appeals: Your SSDI claim receiving a denial means we can help you file an appeal and represent you at your hearing before an Administrative Law Judge.
  • SSDI Claims Denials: We understand the frustration of claim denials and will identify the reasons for the denial and develop a strong appeal strategy.
  • Widow/Widowers Disability: We help surviving spouses obtain the widow or widower’s disability benefits they are entitled to.
  • Family Law: Our firm handles various family law matters, including divorce, child custody, child support, and property division.
  • Divorce: Kentucky is a “no-fault” divorce state, allowing you to get a divorce if you and your spouse have been living apart for at least 60 days and have no reasonable prospect of reconciliation.
  • Child Custody: Kentucky courts determine child custody based on the child’s best interests; Hicks Law Firm is ready to tell your side of the story.

Working with a Prestonsburg attorney who practices in multiple areas of law allows you to have a single point of contact for all of your legal needs.
