“I Want to Apply for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI) Benefits…”
“Do I Need a Lawyer?”
If you have a disability then you may be eligible for Social Security disability or SSI. In order to be disabled, Social Security says that you must prove that you cannot work due to a medical condition that will last at least one year or will result in death. The process of applying for these benefits is tedious and can be confusing. You are more likely to win your case with a lawyer. Failure to meet certain deadlines and complete paperwork required by the Social Security Administration can extend the wait-time and can even cause you to lose your case. You do have the right to represent yourself. But as the saying goes: "The man who represents himself has a fool for a client."
If you do decide to get a lawyer, it is wise to hire one who focuses on Social Security cases. The rules and regulations are complicated and change frequently. Your lawyer should be experienced with the disability process and with the standards for disability. Most lawyers handling disability benefits cases never charge a fee unless their client wins, and some lawyers, like those at the Law Offices of Eric A. Shore, can help you even if you cannot leave your home. Also, since we have a national practice, we can help you no matter which state you live in.
We help people just like you to apply for Social Security Disability Income (SSDI) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) for a variety of physical and mental disabilities.
