What Will An Attorney Do for Me?

Each case is different, but provided below are just some of the ways an attorney or advocate can help you through the Social Security Process:

- Aid you in filling out all forms
- File your initial claim completely and quickly
- File any appeals, if necessary, completely and quickly
- Evaluate your case and answer any questions
- Help strengthen your case by referring you to additional doctors
- Monitor and notify you of your case’s progress at the Social Security Administration
- Supplement your claim with updated records and reports
- Gather evidence from persons such as your doctor to strengthen your claim
- Handle all aspects of the hearing
- Prepare you for the questions and topics that will come up at your hearing, and address any issues you are concerned about
- Ask the Administrative Law Judge to subpoena any witnesses necessary to proving your claim
- Fully argue your case at the hearing by giving an opening and closing statement, cross-examining the vocational expert and any other adverse witnesses, asking the Administrative Law Judge to review and reassess any prior claims, and preserving the hearing’s evidentiary record through proper and timely objections.
- Ensure the Social Security Administration calculates your benefits correctly
