Applying for SSD benefits, from start to finish

On Behalf of | Jul 22, 2015 | Social Security Disability Benefits

Anyone familiar with previous posts on this blog may be aware that applying for Social Security disability benefits is a process. Sometimes it is not easy, and it may not always be not quick. However, as long as an applicant in Los Angeles follows the appropriate steps and provides as many details regarding their disability as possible, the process can run smoothly.

The first step is to fill out the application documents. These documents, once submitted, need to be accompanied by everything that the applicant thinks is important to show the Social Security Administration that their disability is legitimate, and that the disability will keep the applicant from working for one year or longer.

As the application is being processed by the Social Security Administration, there may be times when the applicant is contacted to answer questions or provide more documentation. And, if the initial application isn’t approved, the applicant may need to file an appeal of the initial decision — a process that can take even more time and can become even more complex in legal terms.

At our law firm, we attempt to help our clients on each step of the application process. This begins with the first step of filling out documents correctly, to then collecting the documents that will attest to a person’s disability and even on to representing our clients in front of appeals panels. It is important for our clients to obtain the SSD benefits they need to cope with the financial aspects of living with a disability.
