IS IT BETTER TO HAVE A DISABILITY ATTORNEY FROM THE VERY BEGINNING ?





A claimant for social security disability or ssi disability may not need the help of an attorney during the initial application phase of their ssd or ssi claim.

A disability applicant who has been denied on an initial claim, however, should seriously consider finding someone to represent their case, simply because, statistically speaking, they will likely find themselves at a disability hearing in front of an administrative law judge at some point. And, quite frankly, many individuals will even benefit from having representation at the very beginning of their claim.

However, on the issue of representation, an applicant for benefits is not limited strictly to being represented by an attorney. There are, in fact, many very qualified and experienced disability advocates and representatives who are not attorneys. Many of these non attorney representatives are former social security administration claims reps or Disability determination services claims examiners. Such individuals, of course, often have a knowledge of the system that few attorneys will ever possess.
