Case Evaluation Form

bt_bb_section_bottom_section_coverage_image

If you live in Morgan City, Berwick, or Patterson, you are part of a community that knows how to work hard on the water and in the field. But when a chronic illness or a severe injury makes it impossible to continue your trade, navigating the federal disability system can feel like an impossible task. At Magnolia Disability, we provide the personalized, local advocacy that the families of St. Mary Parish deserve.

Our Connection to the Morgan City Community

Morgan City is the “Gateway to the Gulf,” and its workforce is the backbone of Louisiana’s maritime and fabrication industries. We have extensive experience coordinating with the local healthcare providers our neighbors trust, including Ochsner St. Mary and the specialists serving the Tri-City area. We know how to turn your local medical records into a winning case for the SSA.

We understand the unique demands of the St. Mary Parish workforce. From the workers in the offshore fabrication yards to the crews at the Port of Morgan City, we know how to prove that your disability prevents you from returning to the high-intensity labor that powers our region.

Local Landmarks & Life in the Tri-City Area

We are proud to serve the people who call the Atchafalaya Basin home. Whether you enjoy a weekend at the Louisiana Shrimp and Petroleum Festival, a walk along the Spirit of Morgan City shrimp boat, or a day near the Berwick Lighthouse, we know that losing the ability to work is a heavy burden. We fight to get you the benefits you’ve earned so you can focus on your life here in South Louisiana.

Lance’s Local Recommendation

“If you’re in Morgan City for an appointment, you have to go to Rita Mae’s Kitchen on Federal Avenue. Their soul food is the real deal—the gumbo and fried chicken feel like a Sunday dinner at home. It’s a local gem that really captures the heart of the community.” — Lance White
