IF DISABIITY APPEALS WERE EASY.....

A disability appeal takes you face-to-face with an administrative law judge for a hearing.  

If these hearings were easy......

....60 percent of claimants would not be denied at hearings....

....90 percent of claimants would not get representation...

.... There would be no work for Social Security attorneys....

.... And you would have a pretty fair chance all on your own.

However, only about 4 out of 10 claimants win their benefits at the hearing.  About 6 out of 10 are denied if you go by national averages for 2016 and 2017.

Over 90 percent of claimants know better than to appear before a judge unrepresented.

There is plenty of work for Social Security attorneys, and

Your chances are a lot better if you are represented at your hearing!

What is the main advantage of having an attorney or non-attorney advocate help with your hearing?

I think the main advantage is simply that the representative knows the rules and regulations and what it takes to prove your case.  He knows what works and what doesn't.  

Your representative can only be paid if your case is successful.  The small attorney's fee is a good trade off for a large back pay settlement and potentially a lifetime of benefits.
