Services
Conveniently located in downtown Hasbrouck Heights, our firm helps people in Bergen County and throughout northern New Jersey to obtain the disability benefits they deserve - either from employer-associated or privately purchased disability insurance policies, or from the Social Security Administration, and its SSD and SSI disability programs.
I understand the rigors of hard work and the grind of physical labor. Before and during college, I was a construction laborer working through the laborers' local in Fort Lee. As a result, I understand what it is to work hard to feed your family. I also understand the devastating impact of injuries and disabilities on working families and have dedicated my practice to helping people obtain the disability benefits they deserve.
If you purchased disability insurance through an employer-sponsored plan, you probably did so with the thought that if you became disabled and needed long-term care, the financial resources you would need would be there for you and your family. Unfortunately, they may not be, at least not without the help of experienced legal counsel.
Dealing with the Social Security Administration (SSA) on your own can be demoralizing. You may feel that no one there really cares about what has happened to you and whether you receive the disability benefits you deserve. It is difficult to get clear answers about exactly what you need to do to obtain Social Security Disability (SSD) benefits.
When you have been unable to work due to an injury or a long-term illness, you may wonder why you should hire a disability attorney. After all, you may have disability coverage through your employer or through a private insurance policy that you will expect will cover you in your time of need. The fact is, most disability claims are initially denied.

For me, Mr. Steven Gaechter is head and shoulder above his peers.He is very cordial and attends to your case with great details.The only thing that one has to worry about is wether he will take your case after going through it. If he believes that you have a good case , he will fight for you and do justice to it...I am truly grateful to him and his wonderful office staff

After doing much research and interviewing different attorneys I decided to give my daughters case to Steven Gaechter. Steven handled every aspect of the case himself in the most professional manner. He answered all of our concerns immediately and in the most reassuring way. Mr. Gaechter did succeed in obtaining my daughters benefits.
Steven Gaechter is truly a pleasure to work with and I highly recommend him.

Steven Gaechter represented my son, Peter in his SSI case that was previously denied on two occasions. Ultimately, our appeal has been approved due to Steven’s assistance.
Steven and his staff were very helpful and responsive to all of our questions. Steven demonstrated high level of professionalism, and personal attention to our case. He spent ample time with us to walk us through the process and ensured we understood what was expected of us. He responded to every email and if we had questions or concerns, he was always available.
This was our first time dealing with Social Security office
