What a Griffin SSI/SSD Attorney can do for your Disability Benefits

It can be incredibly frustrating to try to get a social security disability benefit. Sometimes the red tape and the hoops the social security administration want you to deal with seem just too much. Your life has been torn apart and all they want is more evidence. You are not alone and there is help available. If you have already been frustrated by the Social Security Administration structure, or you just want some advice contact a disability lawyer who can help you.

You can find the SSA offices here:


Or call the Social Security Administration’s national toll-free number at 1-800-772-1213.
 The SSA forms can be confusing, and the process is not always a simple one. Unless your case is extremely straightforward or your disability is particularly severe, you will probably have a better chance at getting you social security disability benefit granted if you use a disability lawyer.
No one is trying to do you out of your money – just the opposite. Over 70% of SSI SSDI claims are turned down at the initial phase and even those that go to appeal have a 38% or more failure risk. This can be more than just a little frustrating when you are struggling to keep your head above water financially. No one who is struggling financially wants to pay out any more than they need to.
So what does all that really mean? It means you should have a disability advocate who can make sure you get what you are entitled to with the minimum amount of stress. Yes it will cost you something eventually, but our disability attorneys work on a no win, no fee basis which means you don’t pay a thing until your SSI SSDI claim is settled. Yes there is a small risk factor and if you think you have a better chance of going it alone by all means do so. It pays to be well informed and know exactly what the risks of losing are. If you have the means to pay for yourself or your family for a year or more without needing any supplementing income go for it. Make sure to have your SSI SSDI appeal filed in good time and accurately. You will have 60 days to get your appeal in after the initial rejection.

If you have been working in the textile industry in Griffin you may well have a case for workers compensation. This will not affect your SSDI application, though it may have an effect on an application for SSI. The amount you receive for your SSDI claim is based on how long you have been working, and subsequently how much you have put into the federal fund so it doesn’t matter how much income or what assets you have. SSI on the other hand is income based and there is a threshold as to how much income and assets you can have.
