Greenville Social Security Disability Lawyer  

In life, many people try to plan for the path ahead. They try to save money while juggling bills; pursue an education when other aspects of their lives demand their attention; work day-in and day-out to earn their wages. Despite all their efforts at planning, many people are faced with challenges they did not account for. They may not have anticipated becoming disabled, hurt, or ill, and may be unsure of the path forward. Becoming disabled affects individuals daily lives, their futures, their employment, their family, their loved ones, and their ability to provide for themselves and those who depend on them.

If you have been hurt or have become disabled, you are not alone. Through this difficult and trying time in your life, a Greenville Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) lawyer can provide advice and counsel for your claim. Contact a compassionate Greenville attorney right away.

Social Security Disability Insurance Benefits

The first step an individual should take after becoming disabled is to seek the medical treatment required to get better. This may not be easy, but it is necessary for beginning the journey of recovery. Most individuals require a steady paycheck in order to function in society. This is where Social Security comes in. The Social Security Administration was designed to provide income to those who are not able to provide for themselves due to a covered disability or illness. At the start of 2015, Social Security paid average monthly benefits of approximately $1,165.

The next step to achieve the goal of compensation is to consult an attorney. While it is possible to file a social security claim without the assistance of a professional, the likelihood of success is enhanced by a lawyer’s review – and two sets of eyes are better than one.

Consulting an attorney is also imperative because the initial claim may take a very long time to process. This is due to a variety of factors, ranging from the complexity of the application, to the difficulty in obtaining the documents needed to properly file the claim, to the volume of claims that are regularly filed through the Social Security Administration. A knowledgeable Greenville SSDI lawyer can assist with reviewing the application for common errors that could delay the claim, or worse – deny the claim altogether.

The Whitley Advantage isn’t just one thing – it’s everything.

Contact a Greenville SSDI Attorney

Contact a Greenville SSDI lawyer to set up an initial consultation today. It is critical that you do not delay in filing your claim, as benefits are only paid for the 12 months prior to the date of the application. The filing process is generally long and drawn out, which can prevent you from receiving governmental benefits in the interim.

To make matters worse, many claims are denied the first time they are filed. This results in appealing the denial of the claim to a higher, reviewing authority, such as to an Administrative Law Judge or Federal Court, depending on the circumstances of your claim.

If you are concerned about your legal rights, contact a Greenville SSDI lawyer to protect your interests today.
