On March 30, 2007, Rick Fleming, Social Security disability lawyer with the Law Offices of James Scott Farrin, will deliver welcoming remarks to the Disability Advocacy Section Meeting of the North Carolina Academy of Trial Lawyers (NCATL) Education Foundation’s Continuing Legal Education (CLE) program. The CLE program on March 30th will focus on rules and regulations overlooked by most specialists in the practice of social security law.

Rick Fleming co-chairs the NCATL education foundation CLE program on social security with Beaufort attorney Janet M. Lyles. The meeting will be held at NCATL headquarters in Raleigh, NC. Mr. Fleming has been involved in the NCATL education foundation for several years in many different capacities.

The NCATL provides legal education services to its members in order to assist them in their mission of protecting and counseling their legal clients. Client education is helpful in Social Security Law in order to explain the often long process that Social Security Disability claims go through before they are settled. Many claims take over three years to settle.
