“My favorite thing is the feeling that I am making a difference in peoples’ lives. Most people applying for disability have had their lives turned upside down due to chronic medical conditions, and many have exhausted all other options by the time they decide to apply. Words cannot describe how excited I get for my clients who get approved — to be able to help them return to some level of ‘normal’ is incredibly rewarding.”
As a Social Security Disability attorney in the CR Legal Team Charlotte office, Alec Jalovec succeeds in the outcome of cases that determine whether individuals will be able to pay rent, feed themselves, or get necessary medical care. Furthermore, as stated in his quote, his ability to make these differences in the lives of his clients and to assist them in returning to a level of normalcy in their lives are truly valuable and rewarding life-changing accomplishments.
Alec received his Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology with a minor in Law and Society from Ripon College and earned his Juris Doctor from Charlotte School of Law. During his tenure at Charlotte School of Law, he was a member of its Law Review and participated in a summer internship at the Supreme Court of North Carolina. Alec is married, and he and his wife have two wonderful (troublemaking) dogs.
During his free time, he enjoys fishing, kayaking, playing softball, watching the Green Bay Packers, hiking, and relaxing with his wife and the dogs. Alec’s bar admission and membership include the North Carolina State Bar and the Mecklenburg County Bar Association.
