It came out of nowhere and seems to be effecting every aspect of our lives. The Cronovirus. It is already effecting the Social Security disability process.
Whether you have a new application pending, are waiting on an appeal hearing, or needing to file for benefits--you are already being impacted by the chronovirus.
Social Security offices are closed indefinitely. Applications for benefits can only be made by telephone or on the internet at www.socialsecurity.gov.
No hearings are being held except via telephone. I held my first telephone hearing today since the shutdown, a 5-way conference call and it was very difficult. However, this is the way all hearings will conducted for weeks, maybe months into the future.
The Forsythe Firm is still helping claimants navigate the changing waters of Social Security disability. Here are things we may be able to help you with.
1. File a new claim for you electronically.
2. File an appeal on a recently denied disability claim.
3. Represent you in a hearing or appeal.
4. Answer your questions.
We never charge you a fee or any service unless you appoint us to represent you, your application or appeal is approved, and you receive back pay from Social Security.
If you are wrestling with the complicated Social Security disability process--please call us for assistance. We may be able to take action to get you paid. We serve claimants in north Alabama and middle/southern Tennessee. (256) 799-0297.
