HUNTSVILLE ALABAMA SOCIAL SECURITY DISABILITY OPPORTUNITIES

There are opportunities to get Social Security disability in 2025 in the Huntsville, AL area.

 About 60 percent of claimants will be approved IF they stick it out to the end of the process. This often involves appearing at a hearing before an Administrative Law Judge (ALJ).

Some of my clients have received past due benefits ("back pay") of nearly $100,000 at the end of a successful hearing.  About 9 out of 10 of my clients receive some back pay.

Social Security is notorious for denying claims at the first 2 levels:  the application level and the "reconsideration" level.

However, once you get before an Administrative Law Judge your odds of being approved get significantly higher.

The cardinal rule in Social Security disability is this:  Never give up and appeal every unfavorable decision until you get the right decision!

You don't have to get an attorney to represent you before Social Security.

BUT

Your odds of being approved are 3 time higher if you are represented. 

 If I represent you in a Social Security disability claim you will PAY NO FEE unless you win your claim and receive back pay (past due benefits).  

Unfortunately, many claimants get a denial letter and just give up.  This is the biggest mistake you can make with Social Security disability. The majority of these denials represent ERRORS.  How do we fix an error?  We appeal the case to a higher authority for a closer review.

The Forsythe Firm has been representing Social Security disability claimants in Alabama for over two decades.  We have helped thousands of individuals win their benefits, get approved for Medicare and recover thousands of dollars in benefits.

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...
