Getting a Disability Lawyer in
New Jersey
Getting a disability lawyer involved in your social security disability or SSI disability claim can help in a number of ways. At the initial claim level (when you first apply), a disability lawyer can relieve some of the anxiety associated with filing a claim by being there to answer whatever questions you might have about the social security disability process. A disability lawyer who is involved from the very start can also insure that essential deadlines are not missed on your case. For example, in too many instances, claimants who are not represented discover that their claim has been denied after the deadline for filing an appeal has already passed. How and why does this happen so frequently? There's no clear answer, but one of the advantages of having a disability lawyer in New Jersey is this: from the time the social security administration is notified that a lawyer is handling a case, SSA will be obligated to send copies of all notices to the lawyer. This can help ensure that, even if the claimant does not receive their notice, the attorney will receive his or hers and take the appropriate action (which, generally, will be the filing of appeal paperwork).
Can you win a disability case in New Jersey without the help of a disability lawyer? Yes. In fact, many applicants for social security disability and SSI are approved within several months of filing an application. However, nationally, more than seven out of ten claims are also denied at this level and more than eight out of ten first appeals (known as a review or reconsideration) are likewise denied. What does this mean for disabled individuals in new jersey? Basically, it means three things. One, that the odds of being approved for social security disability or SSI when you initially file are not favorable. Two, that most individuals in New Jersey who file their first appeal will also be denied and will need to request a second appeal, which is a disability hearing. And, finally, three, that a lawyer who is familiar with and who specializes in SSD and SSI cases should probably be retained to improve one's chances of winning benefits.
