Susan M. O'Malley

Susan graduated cum laude from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte in 1990 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Criminal Justice Administration. She graduated from law school at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1994 with a Juris Doctor degree.

Susan has appealed and won social security disability cases in Federal District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina such as Joyner v. Barnhart. She argued and won Hines v. Barnhart before the 4th Circuit Court of Appeals. This case not only secured Social Security disability benefits for the plaintiff, but it also reaffirmed important rights of all Social Security claimants to prove their disability through evidence of the pain their impairments cause. She also argued Willey v. Williamson Produce successfully before the North Carolina Supreme Court.
