About

Bowman, De Pree & Murphy is a Social Security Disability law firm based in Davenport, Iowa, serving clients throughout Clinton County, Muscatine County, Scott County, Rock Island County, and the broader Midwest. The firm concentrates exclusively on Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI), Supplemental Security Income (SSI), and Veterans Disability claims, bringing decades of focused expertise to every case.

The attorneys at Bowman, De Pree & Murphy understand that navigating the Social Security Disability system is complex and unforgiving. According to the Social Security Administration, disability claims were denied at an average rate of 67 percent between 2010 and 2019—a stark reminder that applicants who proceed without experienced representation face significant obstacles. The firm's team has handled thousands of claims and appeals, and their combined experience exceeds 60 years in these specialized areas. Because the firm handles nothing but disability-related matters, each attorney can devote complete attention and deep expertise to client cases.

The firm's approach emphasizes thorough preparation and attention to detail. Many denials result from seemingly minor errors: incomplete documentation, missing information, failure to meet the Social Security Administration's medical criteria, missed deadlines, or inaccuracies in medical or work history records. Bowman, De Pree & Murphy works directly with clients before administrative hearings with a judge and will pursue cases to Federal Court of Appeals when necessary. The attorneys guide clients through each stage of the process, ensuring applications and appeals are properly developed and presented.

The firm operates on a contingency-fee basis: clients pay nothing unless they receive benefits as a result of the firm's representation. This arrangement aligns the firm's interests with those of its clients and removes financial barriers to seeking competent legal counsel during an often stressful period.

Client testimonials reflect the firm's commitment and results. Clients have described the experience of working with firm members as transformative, particularly for those who had faced repeated denials over many years.
