Melissa Ryder

Paralegal Case Manager Melissa Ryder was raised in Clarksville, Tennessee where she currently resides with her husband, a U.S. Army Veteran.

Melissa wanted a career where she could help people and make a difference, so she earned a degree in Paralegal Studies. She enjoyed working for more than a decade as a Social Security Disability Paralegal Case Manager for a law firm in her hometown that represented both civilian and Veteran clients.

Melissa was inspired to return to school, where she obtained a BS in Human Services, after 10 years of working closely with Social Security Disability claimants, along with her involvement with local Veteran and homeless outreach organizations.

At Menard Disability Law, Melissa has returned to her roots as Paralegal Case Manager. She has combined her experience and education to serve a vital role in our firm, providing empathetic and highly skilled assistance to our clients.

During her time as a Paralegal Case Manager, Melissa has handled hundreds of cases for clients seeking disability benefits. She is dedicated to helping our clients throughout their case.
