Florida Social Security Disability Attorneys
The process of applying for Social Security Disability benefits is a complex maze of laws, regulations, and procedures. At the Lawrence Law Firm, we assist you with our in-depth knowledge and experience from the initial application to litigation.
Our Social Security Disability Information Center provides additional details about the Social Security Disability system and contains answers to some frequently asked questions.
How to Qualify
To qualify for Social Security Disability benefits, you must suffer from a mental or physical condition severe enough to prevent you, for at least one year, from performing the job you most recently held. The Social Security Administration may counter with questions regarding your ability to work a lower level, non-skilled job to see if you can be hired overall. If you cannot do a full range of even the most sedentary work, and have exertional and non-exertional limitations, you are disabled. Even medication that you are taking for a physical injury can prevent you from working in any type of job.
Former Adjudicator on Staff
We focus on providing you the best service from the most qualified staff at the Lawrence Law Firm. When handling a complicated matter related to SSDI, you want an experienced professional. Our firm has retained the services of a former adjudicator from the Social Security Administration whose responsibilities included reviewing files and determining disability status. As the primary intake person, she is knowledgeable as to the information that Social Security needs to evaluate your case and has years of professional training.
Filling Out Your Application to Expedite the Process
Our staff will work to ensure that the correct language and information is incorporated into your applications so that Social Security has what they need to evaluate your file. So often, applicants do not put the proper information on their forms. We know what you need to provide Social Security administration officials with the correct information at the correct time. We will secure information from your physician based on the regulations that address your personal injury and what you need for treatment.
Our service expedites a process that can take up to two years from the date of application. There have been cases where we have secured benefits for our clients within three to six months. Your lawyer will partner with a former adjudicator to resolve the situation quickly and properly.
