CANTON, NORTH CAROLINA Complete the following form if seeking help from a disability lawyer or attorney in Canton, North Carolina NC
Many social security disability and SSI claimants filing for disability benefits in North Carolina (in canton and all other areas) make this one terrible mistake. After waiting many months for a disability hearing date, they fail to appear at their hearing on time because they got lost on the way. Probably what every claimant should do is this: a few days before the hearing, visit the hearing office just to eliminate any chance of getting lost on the actual day of the hearing.
Can you win disability for only certain impairments, or on the basis of any impairment?
Answer: The Social Security Administration's disability evaluation system does not focus on a claimant's diagnosis, but, rather, on the functional limitations a claimant has. In other words, the name of the condition is not the chief consideration. How the condition "affects and limits: the indiviual is the primary concern. So, yes, disability benefits can be won on the basis of nearly any condition provided that the condition is sufficiently limiting.
As these hypothetical examples show, disabling conditions can take a wide variety of forms.
"I have had a total left knee replacement, and have spinal stenosis, and a ruptured lumbar disc"
"I have arthritis in my hand and tendinitis in my wrists and arms and shoulders"
"I've had fibromyalgia for 3 years and recently started having hip pain. I am seeing a rheumatologist"
