YOU MAY BE ABLE TO GET CASH DISABILITY BENEFITS NOW

 The US Social Security Administration makes cash payments to covered individuals who have long term disabilities that make them unable to continue working.

You may qualify if

  • Your condition will keep you from working for 12 straight months or more
  • You are not currently working
  • You have worked at a qualifying job during the past 5 years
  • You have medical evidence to support being disabled

The Forsythe Firm in Huntsville has helped thousands of disabled individuals collect Social Security disability payments.  We are specialized in Social Security and that's all we do.

Why would you need a lawyer or advocate to help you?

1.  The majority of new applications are denied.  Up to 8 out of 10 are denied.  (Your chances are better with legal representation)!

2.  Social Security's process is complex and unusually difficult.

3.  Your claim will probably require an appeal and/or a hearing to be approved.

4.  You will need help gathering medical evidence to get paid.

5.  You never want to go before a judge unrepresented.

How Does a Social Security Attorney Get Paid?

Social Security requires that you be approved for benefits and receive past due payments before you pay a legal fee.  If you do not collect past due benefits, an attorney may not charge you a fee. So, there is no upfront fee and you never have to pay until you win and recover a past due benefit (in cash).

At the Forsythe Firm consultations are always free and without pressure or obligation.  Just call us at (256) 799-0297 or (256) 503-8151.

MOST IMPORTANT FACTORS IN A SOCIAL SECURITY DISABILITY CASE

What are the top 3 most important factors in a Social Security disability case? 1.  Medical Evidence. 2.  Medical Evidence 3.  Medical Evidence 4-10     Medical Evidence Federal regulations set the eligibility requirements for Social Security disability (SSDI) benefits.  A claimant must meet these strict legal requirements More than anything else, the claimant's medical evidence will determine the outcome of the claim or appeal.  Without strong objective medical evidence Social Security cannot legally pay you a benefit. Objective Medical Evidence means the result of medical examinations, laboratory tests or imaging studies (X-rays, PT scans, MRI or CT scans). This type of evidence can only be obtained by going to your doctor. There's an old adage that says truthfully:  "The path to Social Security disability benefits runs straight through your doctor's office."  Being approved for an SSDI benefit requires objective medical proof. ...

IS IT HARD TO GET SOCIAL SECURITY DISABILITY IN TENNESSEE?

  How hard is it to get Social Security disability (SSDI) in Tennessee? It can be very difficult.  In the beginning stages of the process, it seems like the agency is out to deny as many claims as possible.  Later--in the appeals process--it takes more technical and legal skill to move through the labyrinth of obstacles. What's the usual reason for an SSDI denial? If you look at all the denial letters, the most comm on reason given is:  You are not disabled according to our rules. The 2 main explanation for finding claimants not disabled are: 1.  You are able to perform some of your past relevant work. 2.  You can't perform any of your past work but you are able to do other work. Those are the two "catch all" reasons Social Security gives for nearly all of their denials.  Both of these reasons fall into the category of a medical denial .  The claimant's condition is not deemed severe enough to prevent all work. There are other reasons for d...

CAN YOU WIN YOUR DISABILITY APPEAL WITHOUT A LAWYER?

The Social Security Administration does not require you to have a lawyer to file an appeal or to appear at a hearing.  However, most people heading for a disability hearing will hire a lawyer or advocate to help them.   Studies have shown that you are about twice as likely to win with a lawyer.  A recent study found that claimants with no lawyer win about 30 percent of the time while claimants with a lawyer or advocate win 60 percent of the time.   " He just cooked his own goose." These statistics cover only one aspect of a disability appear--your odds of winning. The other important aspects are time and convenience. If you prepare and adjudicate your own disability appeal, expect to spend 12 to 24 months working on the case.  You will be collecting, reading and submitting hundreds or thousands of pages of medical records.  These records are complex and often difficult to understand.  And you must know how each medical record helps (or hurts) your dis...
