WHAT MY CLIENTS SAY ABOUT SOCIAL SECURITY DISABILITY

 I look at comments disabled claimants write about their experience trying to get Social Security disability benefits. Here are a few of their comments:

"Overwhelming."

"Mentally and emotionally more than I could bear."

"Heartbreaking."

A retired US Marine officer wrote:  "By far the most convoluted system I've ever seen."

Too often the nightmare of dealing with Social Security comes during a time of trials and hardship.  On top of being disabled and in financial crisis (and probably in pain) claimants must deal with a system that is demanding, unresponsive and frightening.

I like to think that my firm throws a lifeline to many of these individuals when they need it most.  When they are about beaten and ready to give up, we take the burden and carry it to the finish line.

Not only do I try to get maximum benefits in the shortest time possible, but I hope to take a lot of the burden and uncertainty off the claimant's shoulders.  My goal is to help relieve some of the stress and emotional turmoil involved in seeking disability benefits.  

And the workload.  Handling a Social Security disability application or appeal can feel like a full time job. My office is prepared to handle all of this work so the claimant doesn't have to. 

When it comes time to go before a judge, I have to think that claimants are relieved to have an experienced advocate right there with them. It takes the guesswork and uncertainty out of the complicated procedure.  

I will provide a free conversation to anyone who needs disability benefits.  If we are not successful in recovering money for you, then you will never owe me a cent.  And I will never ask you for money upfront. My pay comes at the end of a successful case, never before.

My office specializes in disability for persons age 50+.  And claimants who have recently been denied. Please don't give up.

Please call for your free no-pressure conversation.  (256) 799-0297.

IF I CHANGE ATTORNEYS WILL IT DELAY MY DISABILITY CASE?

No.  Getting a new attorney will NOT delay your pending Social Security disability claim or appeal .  Your new attorney "inherits" the case and picks up where the other attorney left off.  There is no re-filing or starting over, so your case is not set back or delayed at all.  Social Security maintains an electronic folder stored in its system.  This folder contains every document ever submitted concerning your claim or appeal.  Your new lawyer may log into your electronic files and see, in real time, all the evidence and other documents in your file. While we do not recommend changing attorneys while your case is pending a decision, it is sometimes necessary.  You may need a new lawyer if your attorney dies, retires or  becomes disabled before your case is settled.  You may choose a new attorney without delaying or causing any set back to your case. If you are considering obtaining a lawyer to handle your Social Security disability case in...

URGENT MESSAGE FROM SOCIAL SECURITY'S TOP OFFICIAL - February 18, 2025

There is a lot of talk and speculation about Social Security in the new Trump Administration.  The acting commissioner of Social Security recently resigned and Lee Dudek has been appointed the new Acting Director. Today (2/18/2025) I received a message from the new Acting Commissioner Dudek.  Here is part of Director Dudek's message on Social Security for 2025:   Our continuing priority is paying beneficiaries the right amount at the right time, and providing other critical services people rely on from us. DOGE personnel CANNOT make changes to agency systems, benefit payments, or other information. They only have READ access. DOGE personnel do not have access to data related to a court ordered temporary restraining order, current or future. DOGE personnel must follow the law and if they violate the law they will be referred to the Department of Justice for possible prosecution.                      ...

SOCIAL SECURITY DISABILITY APPLICATION PROCESS

  Here is a brief overview of what takes place after you file your Social Security disability application : Application confirmation  – Social Security will mail you a copy of your application to sign. You will have an opportunity to review the application, correct any errors, and send it back to Social Security for processing. You must return the signed application. Social Security will not process your application until they receive your signed confirmation. And they don't send reminders about this. Function report  – Social Security will mail you a form called a function report . This form will ask questions about your personal care, meals, house and yard work, getting around, shopping, money, hobbies and interests, social activities,  and other abilities. This form will help Social Security determine what you can and cannot do on a daily basis. It must be filled out carefully and fully and returned. Work history report  – Social Security will ma...
