Social Security Disability
Joe has spent Twenty-eight years in assisting individuals seeking disability benefits under Title II of the Disability Act. Joe was a former disability examiner for the Social Security Administration.
Although the Social Security Administration gives people the idea they do not need an attorney at the initial stages of the disability evaluation process, this may be detrimental to a claim. To the contrary, the initial stages are the critical period when one must adequately document his case so he has the best opportunity to be allowed early in the process. In evaluating disability one must look at all impairments in relation to age, education, and residual capacity to work.
An attorney must be familiar with various medical impairments and how they relate to the disability claim. Social security uses a list of medical impairment categories and applies vocational factors in deciding whether an individual is considered disabled. An attorney’s job is to make sure these factors are applied fully and fairly to the disability claimant.
Our firm takes great pride in making sure our clients have the best opportunity and receive the benefits they are entitled to. If you believe you are disabled and entitled to receive social security benefits, call us for a free consultation.
