Looking For A Great Lawyer For Ssdi Claim

[Snookster]

I apologize if I am placing this in the wrong forum. Please correct it if it is. I was turned down by SSDI for the 2nd time. I swear I do not know what these people want. Gave them everything I had and still no good. I live in the Ft. Lauderdale, Fla. area and if any of you have ever used a good SSDI Attorney, please feel free to list them here or PM me. Whatever you wish. Thank You in advance.

What reasons are they giving you for denial?

snooky ...chill....call your local senior citizens center and ask them for the phone number in your area for free legal counsel on this subject befor you hire attys. you don't have to be a senior either to call. they may put you in the right direction.

Have you been to the Social Security web-site? That would help, as you can go to publications, and go to Bluebook. This will take you to the different disabilities, and the way SSDI evaluates each of them. You never mentioned what injury or disease you have. Please look at the Bluebook and see if what you have is in there.

Sorry about no info. I applied to SSDI as a Veteran with PTSD who hasn't worked in close to 4 years due to my increasing conditions.. I have a 50% rating and just applied for I.U as a Section B individual. I have letters and all my clinical records indeed show an increase to my PTSD. .This will indeed be a weeding out process as far as hiring an Atty. The best advice I've heard so far, is to go down to my local VA Outpatient Clinic and ask around there. Talk to the other guys about who they used and why. Thanks to all who answered.

50% will not get you IU unless you are trying for extra scheduler and your chances there are minimal...

I suggest contacting http://nosscr.org/ for a referral in your area.
