Disability Hearing

by Disability Lawyer

You have just received a letter telling you that Social Security Disability has your file at the regional hearing office and they will be in touch with you about a hearing, does this sound familiar? It does to many, if not all people who apply for Social Security Disability. Most people phone me and ask, What does this letter really mean? I’m I having a hearing in the next weeks, months, etc. The answer is usually no, most of the time it is many months before you will find yourself before a judge who is assigned to hear your disability claim.

The time between receiving the letter and your disability hearing is a great time to gather and or make Social Security Disability aware of your continuing treatment, or for those who cant afford any treatment, it is a time to see some of the Social Security Doctors, or other health care professionals for the evaluation of your disability. This is also a great time for me to review your records, and before your hearing date write a pre-trial brief.

I prepare a brief for your disability hearing to help point the judge to our strongest medical arguments for your disability claim. It is a brief including your medical records, your history of work, education, and procedural things like when you applied and were denied. It allows the judge to get a snap shot of your case before and during your hearing.

I am often asked, Do I have to say anything? Simply the answer is yes, the disability judge will generally ask you questions about your daily activities, your financial history, your work background, and most importantly your health issues. Honesty in this questioning is crucial to your case, it is never acceptable to answer the judge with anything but the truth. Many times my clients are fearful of some of their answers hurting the claim, and most of their worries are unfounded, honesty is always the best policy at your hearing.

How long until I get a ruling from the disability judge, after my hearing? There is no timeline for a decision, but usually I would say 4 to 5 weeks until a decision will be made. They will send a copy to me as your lawyer, and to you.

These are a few of the things that occure at your hearing for Social Security Disability, should you have any questions always feel free to phone the law office at toll free 1-800-271-2633 or local at 615-308-2633.

Nashville Disability Attorney

by Disability Lawyer

You have worked your entire life and suddenly through no fault of your own you become disabled, what do you do? I hear this scenario over and over again in Tennessee, it is a difficult situation to find oneself in. The first thing that you need to do is get your initial Social Security Disability application filed, you can do this by dialing 1 (800) 772-1213, I would recommend calling on the days of Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, it seems these days are less crowded.

What happens after that? Usually in Tennessee your case is decided within a couple of months, unfortunately many people are denied. After you are denied you have a deadline to meet to appeal your claim, this is called the reconsideration stage, the Department of Disability Services will review your claim again, if you are denied at the reconsideration stage you will again have a deadline to meet, should you fail to meet any of these deadlines your claim can be dismissed.

What is after the reconsideration stage? This is when you request a hearing before a Federal Administrative Law Judge. You will need to have all of your relevant medical records for the Court to review, and testify before the Judge and the Vocational expert, each district in Tennessee has their own hearing office, such as Chattanooga, Nashville, Memphis, Knoxville, other states have the same scenario, each part of the state is split into districts. After the hearing at the Office of Hearing and Appeals, what is next? The Social Security Judge will generally issue an opinion about your claim in writing, you and your attorney will receive a copy of the decision in the mail.

As an attorney who has been in the courtroom since my third year of law school in Mississippi I have enjoyed my time representing good hard working people, being an Attorney doing Social Security Disability Law allows me to help out people, who through no fault of their own have become disabled.
