Weisbord & Weisbord PC

Karen Kress Weisbord, Esq.

Karen is a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania, and Boston University School of Law.

Her primary practice lies in two separate areas: Social Security disability and Employment Discrimination. She was the co-chair of the Philadelphia Bar Association’s Social Security Disability Committee from 1996 to 2008, and continues to be a sustaining member of the National Organization of Social Security Claimant Representatives.

As an experienced educator, Karen has conducted numerous seminars on Social Security law for attorneys. She provides comprehensive assistance to claimants seeking Social Security disability benefits, whether they are starting the application process or appealing a denied claim.

Karen works directly with clients from the initial consultation through to the resolution of their case. Unlike other firms where cases are handed off to less experienced staff, Karen personally oversees every stage of the process. When you hire her, you can trust that she will be with you every step of the way, offering expert guidance and representation.



Social Security cases are handled on a contingency fee basis, meaning clients only pay if their case is successful. Fees are exclusively drawn from back benefits, ensuring that future benefits remain untouched.

In the area of Employment Discrimination, Karen represents both private-sector employees and government workers pursuing claims through the MSPB and EEOC. Her expertise includes age, race, and gender discrimination, as well as wrongful termination and adverse disciplinary actions. As with her Social Security cases, Karen works directly with clients from the initial consultation to the conclusion of the case, providing dedicated and personalized representation throughout the process.
