HOW WILL A DISABILITY ADVOCATE HELP YOU?

Specifically, here are some of the things that a good disability attorney-advocate will do for you:

• Gather and analyze medical records from doctors and other providers

• Maximize strong points of your case to help you win.

• Analyze your past relevant work and how it impacts the claim

• Determine if you meet or equal one of the published Listings

• Determine whether a Grid argument can be made to get approval

• Develop a strong legal theory of the case to explain why you should be approved

• Solve flaws or problems in the case before it goes to hearing

• Petition for expedited processing, if appropriate, to get a faster decision

• Deal with pre-hearing motions from the judge

• Write a brief to explain why the case is sound legally and should be paid

• Prepare you, the claimant, for what will happen at the hearing ahead of time

• Appear at the hearing to present the case before the judge

• Object to testimony or rulings that are not in your best interest

• Cross examine Social Security's medical and vocational experts at the hearing

• Make final arguments to the court at the close of the hearing

• Monitor the payment process to be sure you collect the maximum benefits

• Decide whether any unfavorable decisions should be further appealed

• File any further appeals that are appropriate

• Answer your questions as the case progresses so you understand the process

All of this should cost you nothing until a favorable decision has been reached and you have been awarded past due benefits. Call one of Alabama's most successful and most experienced Social Security disability advocates:
