Veronica Leontyeva Lakuriqi, Social Security Disability Attorney at Hiller Comerford Injury & Disability Law, based in Michigan

Veronica Leontyeva Lakuriqi is a Social Security Disability attorney at Hiller Comerford Injury & Disability Law, based in Michigan. Do you keep getting denied for benefits? Veronica won’t take no for an answer.
Veronica has appeared in 700+ disability hearings since 2024. She helps each client get strong proof from their doctors. Then she helps them tell their story to the judge.

Experience & Results

Most of Veronica’s clients live with autoimmune disorders, back injuries, or mental health conditions. Many have already been told no more than once. Some have claims that go back years, so a lot of back pay can be at stake.

Veronica handles 25+ hearings and cases a month. She works with clients across the country, mostly on the East Coast. She also speaks Russian and can work with clients in Russian.

New clients usually ask her first about their chances. Her advice is practical: keep up with your treatment, and ask your doctors to put their opinions in writing. Those records help show the judge what your daily life is really like.

She also wants every client to know that a hearing is not a courtroom drama. It’s a conversation with an Administrative Law Judge (ALJ), and the strict rules of evidence used at a trial don’t apply. You’re there to tell your story in your own words.
