I live in Louisville Kentucky

While a Tennessee attorney can represent you in a Federal SSD hearing in Kentucky, the better question is why would you want an out-of-town lawyer without a local office to represent you? Please note that I am not questioning the competence and ability of the Tennessee lawyer; rather, I question why you would not want a lawyer that you can sit doen with to discuss your case, who would be available to meet with as needed, and would know the local medical profession and SSD judges? There is a lot to say good about relying upon a local attorney.
