If you seek representation on a social security disability or SSI claim in Wisconsin, you may wish to complete and submit the evaluation form that is indicated directly above.
When should you generally look for assistance on a disability case that has been filed with the social security administration? In actuality, you can do this at nearly any point in the process.
Some individuals will obtain representation before a claim has even be filed simply to turn over all the paperwork aspects to a disability lawyer and make the process as minimally stressful as possible. Many other individuals will instead look for an experienced attorney immediately after a disability case has been denied.
In essence, there is no rule as to when a claimant should consider finding a disability lawyer. However, the vast majority of claimants would be advised to find representation well before a disability hearing before an administrative law judge takes place. And, as a practical matter, most claimants in Wisconsin would benefit from representation after receiving a denial of their initial disability claim.
The reason: most Wisconsin claimants who are denied on their disability application and who file for a reconsideration appeal are also denied, making it necessary to request the second appeal in the process. The second appeal, of course, involves a hearing before a federal judge and very few claimants would be advised to go such a hearing without the benefit of representation.
