Cutting Through Red Tape

The federal government is immense.  When dealing with its many departments and agencies, you may feel caught in a bureaucratic nightmare.  My Merrillville office is here to help.  While I cannot require federal officials to decide matters in your favor, I can insist that all rules are followed to ensure that your request receives serious consideration.  Some of the most common problems arise from: Social Security and Medicare benefits; Immigration and Naturalization Services; the Armed Services; Veterans' Services and Benefits; Welfare and Social Services; and Regulatory Agencies.

If you need help with these matters or if you have a concern with another part of the federal government, please do not hesitate to contact my Merrillville office. You can either send me your concerns in writing or you can request a "Fact Sheet" by calling my Merrillville office. Once your letter or "Fact Sheet" is filed, I will work diligently to ensure that your concerns are addressed in a prompt and satisfactory manner.
