Applying for and getting your Social Security disability benefits is a nightmare. As a government agency, its workers are trained to deny as many applicants as possible. You should not have to struggle in the application process when you already struggle with your disabling conditions. Hiring a South Dakota long-term disability insurance attorney can help.
Less Struggle When You Hire an Attorney
When you hire a South Dakota long-term disability insurance attorney, the attorney takes over and assumes responsibility for your case. Every document needed to show that your claim for benefits is warranted is acquired by your attorney. Then your attorney hands over the entire document package to Social Security and lets the agency go over your case file from there.
If SSA (i.e., Social Security Administration) has any questions about your case going forward, they address those questions with your lawyer instead of you. Your lawyer bears the burden of clarifying your claim, so you don’t have to.
Having a Lawyer Means Waiting Less
On average, filing a claim for benefits requires to seven to nine months of investigation before you receive a decision from SSA. When you hire a lawyer, the lawyer can follow up on your claim and find out if anything is causing it to get stuck. The lawyer helps your case along so that you might not have to wait quite as long.
