Social Security Attorney Information
When it comes to filing a Social Security Disability claim, there is probably a no better person to assist than a Social Security Attorney. The Social Security Administration (SSA) have representatives processing your claim for disability benefits, whether SSDI or SSI, but their job is to deny your claim unless you clearly qualify as “disabled” under SSA’s definitions. Sometimes things can seem unfair or even difficult to understand why you could be denied.
This is why a Social Security Attorney will fight for you to get your benefits since they have a more personal understanding of how your conditions affect you. A lawyer will also have a more watchful eye on what terminology should be used when it comes to filing appropriate documents or when looking over your medical records.
You are encouraged to appeal any denials you receive, and a Social Security Attorney can help assist you and make sure it gets filed on time. There are timelines and limitations to all these procedures, which could be taxing to someone with disabilities. Hiring an Attorney sooner in the application process means less headache and better results. In fact, if it gets to the hearing level, having a lawyer’s presence can help strengthen the validity of your claim. The Administrative Law Judge present will also not hesitate to use terminology or ask questions that the average person wouldn’t know.
Once you call a Social Security Attorney for a consultation, they can determine whether your physical or mental conditions will qualify you for disability benefits and will direct you on which one you would want to apply for. From then, they will help you with gathering the appropriate evidence.
There is no up-front cost to hiring a Social Security attorney. Once your claim is won and Social Security calculates the back due payments owed to you, any fee requests an Attorney submits is contingent on winning the case, must be below the legal maximum (generally $6000) and has to be approved by the SSA first. Once it’s found reasonable by SSA or if after a trial, a Judge, then the payment will be due.
