Frequently Asked Questions

What types of disability cases do you handle?

We represent clients in Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) claims, as well as appeals for denied benefits. Whether you’re applying for the first time or fighting a denial, we guide you through every step.

Do I need a lawyer to apply for disability benefits?

While it’s not required, having a lawyer can greatly improve your chances of approval. We know how to present strong medical evidence, meet deadlines, and avoid common mistakes that cause delays or denials.

How much does it cost to hire you?

We work on a contingency fee basis, which means you pay nothing upfront. Our fee comes only if we win your case, and it’s a percentage of the back pay you receive—not your ongoing benefits.

What should I do if my disability claim was denied?

Don’t give up. Many claims are denied at first. We can review your denial letter, identify weaknesses in your application, and file an appeal with the strongest possible evidence.

How long does it take to get disability benefits?

It varies depending on the stage of your claim, the complexity of your case, and the Social Security Administration’s backlog. Some cases are resolved in a few months, while others can take over a year.

What kind of medical evidence do I need?

The strongest cases include consistent medical records, doctor’s opinions, test results, and documentation of how your condition limits your ability to work. We work closely with your doctors to gather this evidence.

Can I work while receiving disability benefits?

In some cases, yes—but there are strict income limits. We’ll help you understand the rules so you don’t risk losing your benefits.

Will you represent me at my disability hearing?

Absolutely. We prepare you for your hearing, present evidence, and advocate on your behalf before the administrative law judge.

What if I can’t come to your office in person?

No problem. We can handle your case through phone calls, video meetings, and secure document sharing, so you get the help you need without travel.
