How can I get a decision faster when I apply for disability?

There are not many ways to speed up this process. But, if you have been denied after Reconsideration and want to take your case to be heard by the Administrative Law Judge, you can send a Dire Need letter stressing the severity of your financial situation in order to get a quicker date for the judge to hear your case. Another way to speed up your case is by requesting an on-the-record review. This allows the hearing office to review your file before the hearing date in order to be approved for benefits without having to wait to take the case before a judge.  

An experienced Social Security Home attorney or advocate can ensure your forms are filled out completely and if necessary file any appeals quickly.  Click on the "free case evaluation" link and an attorney or advocate near you will contact you to discuss your case.  Get the peace of mind you need by having an attorney or advocate you can trust helping you through the entire Social Security process.
