Both of the cases I've been familiar with lately HAD to get lawyers because they were turned down. I know of the physical issues with both of these people. One had worked for our company for years and than was my housekeeper for many more years. As far as I know, it was about the proper form explanations regarding the doctor interfaces and so forth. The lawyers seem to know how to do that...the legitimate ones, too. As far as I know there are only a couple lawyers - good ones - specializing in this around the area.
Very true. The process has gotten so long and intricately complicated that just about everyone who applies without a lawyer is turned down, even my friend who has a debilitating (and probably fatal in the future) heart condition, complications of diabetes, and who is legally blind was turned down the first time. She hired an attorney experienced in the field and finally was approved, but it took two and a half years.
And of course, SSDI stops when you reach fra (full retirement age).
