If You Have Been Injured and Can No Longer Work, You May Be Eligible to Receive Social Security Benefits. Applying For Disability is a Tedious and Complicated Process, and It is Best to have a Lawyer by your Side.
It is a scary thought to be out of work and unable to support yourself and your family. Though you have spent most of your life paying your dues to Social Security, you may not be guaranteed approval for your case. Filing for Social Security disability can be a complex and tedious task, and it's a good idea to have a lawyer by your side to guide you through the process.
Here are the Top 5 Reasons to Hire a Lawyer
- Our Social Security disability clients do not pay any attorney fees unless they win. In fact, the SSA pays the attorney from the applicant's past-due benefits. The standard fee is 25% of those benefits, with a maximum fee of about $5300.
- Filing for a disability claim is very time-consuming and requires a lot of paperwork that needs to be filed within strict deadlines. Interpretation of government papers can also be difficult to understand. Even the slightest misstep can set you back months of work.
- Just because you have a good sob story does not mean that you will be given the benefits you deserve. The SSA does not have your best interests in mind like a lawyer does.
- One of the biggest problems is that many people become frustrated, intimidated, or unsure what to do. A good attorney will be there at all levels of the process, from application to hearings and appeals and work diligently for your case.
- A lawyer will handle all the paperwork, collect medical records, speak to the SSA on your behalf, and prepare you for any hearing you will have to attend in order to get your benefits.
