Tired of being denied for Disability
I am always shocked by the number of clients in eastern North Carolina who come to me after being denied for Social Security Disability. The denial letters all seem to have the exact same language. While the Social Security Administration believes that your condition limits you from doing your past job, they find that your condition is not severe enough to prevent you from doing other, less demanding, work.
As a Greenville Social Security Disability Attorney, I have a diverse group of clients who have been denied Social Security benefits every step of the way. My clients are people who have worked hard their entire life and now find themselves unable to work for the first time in their life. We all have taxes taken out of our paychecks for our entire working lives in order to protect us in the event we get sick, injured, or are otherwise unable to work. I am
Social Security Disability Lawyer Timothy E. Burch with the
Burch Law Office and my office is familiar with the process and can quickly assess if you meet a
listing of impairment or its equivalent and help you to provide documentation to the Social Security Administration that will hopefully help you to finally get a favorable decision on your application for Social Security Benefits.
To evaluate your situation, we start be learning all about your medical treatment so far. As a potential client, you should prepare for this initial consultation with a Social Security Disability Lawyer by writing down all of the information about the doctors or health care providers that you have seen and bring that information along with a current list of medications to your free consultation. Any fee that is charged by an attorney must be first approved by the Social Security Administration and the typical arrangement is that the attorney is entitled to receive 25% of back benefits that you have so far been denied. Think about those individuals who know you best and those that see how you function on a daily basis. Those people closest to you may be able to provide very helpful information to the Social Security Administration about your limitations and document your condition in such a way that your other medical evidence does not. If you have not already done so, go to the government's website
www.ssa.gov where you will find plenty of other helpful information to you and your Social Security Disability Lawyer for further documenting your claim.
If your initial claim is denied, and your Reconsideration is denied, then you will appeal to a hearing in front of an Administrative Law Judge. There may be testimony from a vocational expert who will often testify that my disabled clients can still do certain less demanding jobs. I am often amused by the names of some of these proposed jobs. I can promise you that you have never heard of or seen such jobs listed in your local want ads. For that reason, it is important for me Social Security Disability Lawyer Timothy E. Burch to fully understand how your activities of daily living are affected by your conditions. We need to be able to produce evidence at your hearing to show that you cannot do these ridiculous jobs that are non-existent except in some
dictionary of occupational titles. If you have not already,
