  1.  There are rare occasions where you can forgo hiring a disability lawyer to help you apply for Social Security aid. If you have extensive legal experience, that's one thing, but even if you have legal experience, if it's not disability law knowledge then it won't help. You simply won't know what to do in court, if your application is denied, nor have the energy to keep fighting for months if not longer. This is how valuable a disability lawyer is. Let's go over these points in more detail.
  2.  The majority of social security applications are denied - and not for reasons you might think. The government is not saying it cannot afford to pay you, or that you have no disability. Usually what occurs is you make some mistakes in your social security application. Yes, the great majority of initial applications are denied, but these are also filled out incorrectly. The social security application is your chance to get an income, medical coverage, and a new life. It's too important to do without aid from an experienced lawyer.
  3.  Social security delays are quite common. There are many cases where people have been denied SSDI but after a second or third try are accepted. You may, for example, have more proof on the fact you have a disability and cannot work. Without a lawyer, it may simply be too difficult to get through this. If the process drags on for months if not over a year, you may just quit. If you hire an experienced lawyer, he or she will do the hard work while you focus on living life with your condition.
  4.  A disability lawyer may be able to help in proving your condition. While you will have to be checked out by an approved doctor to get SSDI, you still have other ways to prove your condition, such as your own personal doctor.
  5.  Being denied is not a failure; it's a step toward your goal. Rejection is never the end of a goal, only a road block. If you're denied once or more, it's time to consult with your disability lawyer. You can get help to prove your condition, to fill out the application correctly, and increase your chances of an acceptance.
  6.  Typically you can pay your lawyer after you get your benefits. If it's proven you have been disabled for the past 2 years, for example, you would get a large disability check to cover that. You can pay your lawyer his or her small fee with this payment. If you get the benefits, it's more than worth it.
