Social Security Disability
If you have a physical illness or mental condition that is expected to prevent you from working for at least a year or that will result in your death, you may be eligible for social security disability benefits.
If you do not present a strong case, the lengthy application process may very likely be futile. Even if you meet all the requirements for social security disability benefits, you may be rejected simply because you did not file properly.
The fact is about 70% of initial social security disability claims get rejected which is why we recommend that you find a competent social security disability lawyer.
Statistically, the vast majority of Social Security Disability (SSDI/SSD) and SSI claims are denied at the initial claim and reconsideration levels, and this typically happens regardless of whether or not a claimant is represented by an attorney or non-attorney disability advocate.
