Our Social Security Disability Attorneys Can Help You Apply for SSDI

We Can Help You Apply for Benefits

At Hawks Quindel, we help individuals at every stage of the SSDI and SSI process, including applying for benefits. You can apply for SSDI or SSI benefits on your own, either at your local office or online. However, there are frequently times when having an attorney help you at the application stage can be beneficial. SSDI and SSI applications are denied at the application stage the vast majority of the time. As such, because appeals are necessary to gain approval, it is important that you provide SSA the correct, complete, and accurate information they need at every step to have the best chance of approval on appeal. Bad information can influence the success of subsequent appeals. For example, if you do not accurately describe the past work you performed, SSA may mistakenly believe that you can still do that work. Additionally, SSA will be asking you to list all of your medical providers in order to request medical records. Assuring that the SSA has the correct medical records is vital to approval, and missing records may give SSA the wrong idea about the severity of your disability. Hawks Quindel’s attorneys and staff will work closely with you and SSA to make sure you have the best shot at approval at every stage, and to ensure SSA has all the documentation and information they need to make a timely decision on your claim.
