Every worker fears an illness or injury that keeps them from working and earning an income. A sudden loss of income can cause financial hardship for the worker and their family. Social Security disability benefits are available to help ill or injured workers continue to take care of their financial responsibilities and family expenses. A good Social Security disability attorney, experienced in the claim process, can help workers get benefits so they can continue to provide for their family.

To file for social security benefits in Missoula County, contact the Missoula Social Security Administration office at:


Or call the Social Security Administration's national toll-free number at 1-800-772-1213.

Each year thousands of people will file a SSI or SSDI application for disability benefits, and many will be denied. One of the reasons people with legitimate disabilities are denied is that their paperwork is incomplete. It is important to submit all supporting documentation when filing a claim for SSI/SSD disability benefits.

When the Social Security Administration is reviewing an application for benefits, they need to see all the information that supports the claim. This includes the physician statement and any medial results. Often the physician statement is too brief and does not offer enough detail about the person’s medical condition. Another reason for denial is that some people do not send in all the required medical test results. This may be because they did not have certain tests performed as the SSA tends to require more medical tests than some doctors perform. A second reason may be that the person had the medical test but are encountering difficulty getting the test results sent to them. A disability attorney can help workers by reviewing the paperwork and making sure the application is correct and complete. They can help getting a better statement from the doctor, as well as the needed medical test results.

Missoula, Montana Disability Benefits
Missoula and the surrounding region experienced a fast rate of growth in the late 1800s when  Mullan road which ran through Missoula and connected Fort Benton, MT and Walla Walla Washington was completed. In 1877 the US established Fort Missoula Army base and in 1883 the Northern Pacific Railroad was built. These changes help to make Missoula a leading trading center, handling grain and produce grown in Missoula and other towns including Evaro, Lolo, and Bonner. Soon the University of Montana would open, in 1895, and in 1908 the US Forest Service selected Missoula as its regional headquarters.

The region’s prosperity continued well into the 20th century, with the first pulp mill in 1956, and several logging businesses and log yards throughout the region. Many of the area’s residents, including those from Clinton, Frenchtown, and Seeley Lake would spend many years working in these industries. But today, some of those industries, like logging, are not as prosperous as in the past. And some of the residents are unable to work the available jobs due to illness or injury. If you can no longer work and want to file a SSDI application with Social Security, then you should contact one of the knowledgeable disability lawyers nearby in communities including Condon, Orchard Homes, and Wye. They can help you begin to receive social security disability benefits.
