As a fact, claims under Social Security, are complex with lengthy process and are often denied.

Social Security, as the name implies, provides for financial support and protection. It assists people during the times when working is no longer physically feasible because of disability or because the worker has reached the retirement age.

Alarmingly, the Social Security Administration rejects about 70%-75% of the applications for disability. About 70% of these denied claims are approved after either asking for reconsideration or a hearing before an Administrative Law Judge.

You may ask why you should be hiring a lawyer in pursuing your application with the SSA.

Well, hiring a Social Security Attorney will help you locate doctors that can provide medical proof to enable you to secure benefits. This evidence will be presented before the Social Security Administration so as to greatly increase the percentage of attaining a favorable award. Otherwise, your claim will be turned down instantly.

Aside from helping you secure benefits, the Social Security Attorney will provide you with these utilities:
• Proper establishment of disability
• Gathering of evidences and documents
• Making an inquiry to the SSA about the status of the case
• Filing an appeal in case of denial
