HOW WE APPROACH A SOCIAL SECURITY DISABILITY CLAIM

 I want to provide an idea of how we approach a new Social Security disability claim.  This could make you less anxious about trying to get benefits and going through the process.

Your first contact with us will probably be a phone call (256) 799-0297.  We will ask you some questions and check out your basic eligibility requirements.  We will ask whether or not you are working, when you stopped working, and about your medical conditions.

 After determining that you may be a candidate for Social Security disability, we will make an appointment for you to come by our office near Bridge Street and speak with an advocate.  At this meeting, we can actually get more information and file the initial claim.  

We will always take time for your questions.  We are never rushed and take as much time as needed to know your case and how to approach your claim.

After you appoint us as your representative, we will keep your medical file updated for Social Security, handle correspondence with Social Security, file any appeals that become necessary, and prepare your case to go to court, if that is required.  Of course, answering our client's questions and helping them to understand the whole process if a big part of our job.

Having good representation may actually double you odds with Social Security.  A recent survey found......

31 percent of unrepresented claimants were approved for benefits.

60 percent of represented claimants were approved for benefits.

Start with a phone call.  Let's see if you have case.  If so, we will work tirelessly to get you approved.  (256) 799-0297.
