When a person becomes disabled, it can bring about a host of new challenges, including mounting medical bills, prescriptions, and court hearings, which leaves little time for an individual to actually recover. Another difficulty that one may encounter is filing for a Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) claim, which may take a very long time and has a high possibility of being denied if the application process isn’t completed with total accuracy. SSDI provides assistance for those who are disabled and getting assistance from a third party, such as a Tennessee Social Security Disability lawyer, can help the process of filing a claim and getting the benefits you are entitled to.
Here are some reasons to get professional assistance with your claim:
- An experienced SSDI attorney knows what information is needed on which deadline and can help you file and complete all of your documents on time. The paperwork for this type of claim can be overwhelming, so getting aid can help you complete all paperwork and meet any deadlines.
- Remembering every medication an applicant has taken, every medical professional they’ve seen, and every treatment they have undergone is actually a very important part of filing a claim. This can be extremely difficult for anyone, let alone a person who may have a lengthy medical history due to a disability, so a knowledgeable attorney will have the resources to obtain your medical records.
- The language and legal issues involved in a Social Security Disability claim can be very confusing, especially for a first-time applicant. Having help from a legal professional can make these things much easier to understand, and can help you make sense of complicated issues throughout the entire process.
- Finally, in the unfortunate event, your claim is denied, a lawyer can help you expedite the appeals process by drafting a pre-hearing memorandum explaining why you meet the Social Security guidelines. An SSDI attorney can help you win your claim so you can get the money you need to live your life.
