Bob Kraft’s P.I.S.S.D.
"The title of this blog reflects my attitude toward those government agencies and insurance companies that routinely mistreat injured or disabled people. As a Dallas, Texas lawyer, I've spent almost 35 years trying to help those poor folk, and I have been frustrated daily by the actions of the people on the other side of their claims. (Sorry if I offended you...)" The acronym in the blawg's title stands for Personal Injury, Social Security Disability law, by the way.
Author: Bob Kraft is a Dallas lawyer who specializes in personal injury, social security disability and immigration law.
