About Pete

Pete Larkin started out his profession with the Social Security Administration (SSA) in 2010, serving as an Lawyer Advisor inside the Office of Hearings Operations for the Iowa vicinity. In this role, he collaborated carefully with Administrative Law Judges, prison assistants, and fellow attorneys to adjudicate and manipulate a excessive extent of disability claims, including Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) instances.
Over the course of his tenure, Pete evolved information in the SSA’s five-step disability evaluation manner, having helped technique hundreds of claims. His commitment to operational excellence and equitable adjudication led to his advertising to Supervisory Lawyer Advisor, wherein he helped oversee hearing schedules, case flow management, and strategies for identifying claims appropriate for expedited favorable choices.
After 15 years of distinguished federal service, Pete transitioned into personal practice, founding Larkin Law in 2025. Drawing on his tremendous experience inside the SSA, he now serves as a committed advocate for claimants in search of representation at some point of the complex incapacity appeals system.
