ATHENS SOCIAL SECURITY DISABILITY HELP WITH NO UPFRONT COSTS

Getting approved for Social Security disability benefits is often complex, confusing and frustrating.  When an individual is disabled, the frustration of dealing with a large government agency can be overwhelming.

Professional help is available; however, many people believe that it costs too much or requires a large upfront payment to cover expenses.  Neither of these things are true.

Advocates--professionals who help you with government programs, do not charge a fee until AFTER you are approved for benefits.  You only pay a fee then if you qualify to receive retroactive or past due benefits.  If you don't get paid, neither does your advocate.  

We will even spend our own money to front the legal expenses, such as purchasing any medical records or doctor's reports that we require.  You pay absolutely nothing until your claim is approved and your back pay comes in.

HERE ARE SOME BASIC RULES FOR GETTING SOCIAL SECURITY DISABILITY:
  • You worked enough in the past to be covered.  If you are age 42 or older, this usually means that you have worked at least 5 out of the most recent 10-year period, and paid FICA or Social Security tax (withheld from wages).
  • You are not presently able to work and are not working now.
  • You have a severe medical condition that can be verified by doctor's records (We get the records for you).  This medical condition must have lasted for at least 12 consecutive months or be expected to last that long.
  • You must be unable to work a full-time job due to medical reasons.
 If you meet these basic guidelines, we should be talking about Social Security disability.  We offer FREE case evaluations and free consultations (by phone or in our local office).
