Social Security and Elder Law Solutions
Contact Thomas M. Henry, Attorney at LawIf you have had limited exposure to the Social Security system, you are not likely to understand how a determination will be made on whether or not you are awarded benefits. It is our job to guide you through the process. Simple steps like keeping a diary and enhancing doctor visits may have great impact on the determination. There is a method to the decision making process, and we deal with it every day. A doctor's letter briefly stating that you are disabled is not likely to be enough as evidence in your case. You must look at the actual findings in your medical records. You must build your case, and build it correctly. That is what we do as your lawyers. We marshal the evidence in your case, making sure it is presented properly and accurately at all levels in the process, from an initial application, to reconsideration and all the way to federal court, if necessary. At the lower levels of the Social Security disability system, there are contracts with the state governments, in which the federal Social Security Administration pays the states to do the initial development of your file. When in doubt, the rule of thumb for these local agencies is to deny benefits. This is where a lawyer comes in to advocate for you. We will use our knowledge and experience to obtain the SSDI or SSI benefits you deserve. Helping Clients in Need of SSD and SSIWhile most of our clients are over 50 years old and unable to return to prior jobs as the result of significant impairments, we help all clients with a claim for Social Security disability benefits. We have successfully obtained benefits for clients as young as 22, taking their cases before an Administrative Law Judge and the Appeals Council. We work for results.
