Websites are a dime a dozen and we caution you to be careful when choosing which ones to utilize.  There are many web sites out there that are very good.  We caution you to be careful of websites where the identity of the firm or author is hidden.  They are solely to generate clients.  They offer only enough information to confuse you or convince you that you need a lawyer.  Other sites are constructed by individuals who have never handled a Social Security Disability claim nor ever intend to.  They are marketing people who are looking to sell leads to lawyers. In fact, there are some websites out there using titles similar to mine don't be fooled.  Here you will find Social Security Disability information, answers and advice on how to apply, am i disabled, how to appeal and how to win SSD, SSDI, and SSI.

     I do not hide who I am on this site and I will try to answer any questions you may have but I will not pressure anyone to retain me as their lawyer.  My sincere hope is that the information in this disability guide is helpful to anyone seeking disability benefits from the Social Security Administration (SSA).  I will try to update the information in this site as often as possible including an almost daily blog.  In addition to the Blog on this site please visit my other Social Security disability Blog for more SSDI and SSI tips.  So be sure to bookmark this site for the latest news.  This is a free disability guide and will help with Social Security Disability and Supplemental Security claims.  Please note that it is my intention to provide accurate and up to date information on this site and I make great effort to do this. However, the information on this site is not guaranteed and no lawyer client relationship exist.  This site is not a substitute for consultation with a lawyer.

How to Use this site.  If you are new to the process of Social Security Disability I recommend you start be reading the disability process.  This page will give you an overview of how your claim is processed and what procedural steps you have to take.  To understand how SSA determines if you are disabled you should read the page "am I disabled?".  After you read this page you should follow the different links to get a better understanding of what it takes to prove your disability.  I also strongly suggest you read "how to win" and "key to SSDI and SSI".  There is a lot more information on this site but this should give you a good starting point to help your claim.

EXAMPLES OF WHY YOU SHOULD CONTINUE READING THIS SITE:

My first suggestion for you and when you are applying for your Social Security Disability or Supplemental Security Income Claim is to be knowledgeable about how the Social Security Administration will evaluate your claim.
     
     Whether you are represented by an attorney or not take it upon yourself to learn as much about the Social Security disability process as you can.  You have already taken the initiative by researching on-line and reading this site.  I also recommend that you visit the Social Security Administration's web site.  It is a bit confusing but can be a great resource for your claim for benefits. 

     By having an understanding of how Social Security decides your claim for benefits you will increase your chances of winning your benefits for Social Security Disability (SSDI) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI). 

My second suggestion is to get help.  

     If you choose to get your benefits without an attorney, this guide will help you learn the process used to determine if one is disabled.  This is not a complete site about Social Security and should not be considered legal advice.  You should also use the SSA's website in conjunction with this site.  This will increase your chances of giving your case the best chance to win your benefits.  Remember the law in these cases is confusing and convoluted.

     Statistics show that those claimants that are represented by an attorney are more likely to win their claim for benefits than those who are not.  In my opinion, the reason for this is because the lawyers that handle Social Security Disability claims have a better understanding of how the Social Security Administration decides your case and they develop your case accordingly.

     Remember this web site is my attempt to give you the tools you need to win your SSDI or SSI benefits with or without a lawyer.  If you decide you need a lawyer for your disability case or just want/need to ask some questions, feel free to contact me.  I also offer a free case evaluation for Social Security Disability and Supplemental Security Income.  

This site is full of free information and practical advice on Social Security Disability.  If you study this site you can learn the following:  How to apply for Social Security Disability.  What is the process by which SSA determines if you are disabled.  How to win SSDI or SSI.  What are the GRID rules?  What you can expect and how to handle a Social Security Disability hearing.  What are the medical listing of impairments?  Do I need a lawyer for my disability claim.  The definitions of common terms used.  Helpful tips to help win your disability claim.  What are Residual Functional Capacity (RFC) forms and why are they so important?  What does your past work have to do with disability?  What is child's SSI?  How to win Child's SSI.  What is the difference between Social Security Disability and SSI?  What are the most important things to know and do when trying to get benefits.  Are you disabled?  What is an Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) and what is his or her role in the process?  What is the Appeals Council?  What can you do to help your Social Security Disability or SSI claim.  How to get Social Security Disability and SSI. 


I wish you good luck with your claim and further encourage you to finish reading this site.

 New changes in Social Security Disability
I was recently at a meeting for the Social Security Administration new pilot program that will allow the people involved in this program to access the SSA file through the Internet.  It is expected it will be available to all representatives in about a year.  I am very excited about this new program and I have mentioned it in earlier posts.  The one disappointment I have with the program is that it does not yet allow us to see the file by Internet at the District Office or Appeals Council level.  For now it is limited to cases at the Hearing level.  It should eventually include all levels of the process but for now the plan is to focus on those cases at the Office of Adjudication and Review.  The advantage of access to the file by Internet is that I will no longer have to wait for the hearing office to send me the file on a CD.  This allows me to look at the file as soon as it gets to the ODAR office.  I expect there will be some bugs to work out along the way which is why it is starting as a pilot program.  As can be imagined it is easier to fix any problems and make sure the access is secure starting with a few representatives as compared to thousands.  I will update from time to time how the program is going.  I was also happy to learn that lawyers and representatives will be allowed to set up video hearings from their offices for Social Security Disability cases.  The lawyers and representatives that decide to do this will have to buy all the equipment necessary on thier own and have the site checked by SSA to make sure it is secure.

 New Statistics for Social Security Disability to be added.
I will be updating the new statistics for approval and denial rates at the application and reconsideration level.  I will also be updating how long cases are taking at the hearing offices or ODARs for the entire country.  Some of the medical listing of impairment also need to be updated and I will try and do all of this as fast as possible to keep the website up to date.  I will continue to try and update the website as new material becomes available.  I also will continue to try and provide more information on this site that I think will be helpful for those trying to get SSDI and SSI.  I also will be updating any information on Veteran's Compensation claims.  As always I hope this information is helpful and that you are successful in your claim for disability benefits.
