Social Security Disability in Tennessee: Know Your Rights

by Jay Stillman on Nov. 04, 2014

Summary

Government Social Security Government Welfare

how an attorney can help you with your disability claim.



CAN’T WORK DUE TO ILLNESSES AND INJURIES?

If the answer is yes, you may be entitled to SSD benefits from the federal Social Security department. To be eligible, you must be unable to work for a year or longer.   Check out the government web site explaining the law and the benefits available: http://www.ssa.gov/disability/   

At Stillman and Friedland, we can calculate the total impact from all illnesses, injuries, surgeries, conditions, and emotional problems, to petition the agency that you cannot engage in any gainful employment.   Even conditions such as fibromyalgia, RSD, reflex sympathy disorder, diabetes, high blood pressure and other health problems many Americans suffer from are potentially covered. Because of this, most people don’t even realize they have a claim for benefits.   

We will file your SSD claim from the beginning, or anywhere along the process. We handle appeals, hearings, and court appearances. We file online and can move your case more efficiently and faster electronically. The small details make the difference, like supplementing your records from all your doctors as you continue your treatment. These and other inside points are very important to a successful outcome for your Social Security Disability claim. Attorneys’ fees are limited by law and are minimal for your protection.   

If you need more information about SSD claims, or just an opinion about your current situation, call or email us anytime. There is no charge for the information and there is no need to come to town as we can help you by phone, fax, or email.
