Social Security Disability Advice

Here are some important things to keep in mind if you are disabled, unable to work, and interested in getting SSDI/SSI benefits:

  • Don't delay filing — Anyone with any knowledge of the SSDI claims process knows that it can take a long time. In Broward County, it can take up to two years for an initial claim to be approved or denied. Additionally, the appeals process can take a long time, so it is important to get the process started as soon as possible.
  • Get advice from a lawyer — Most initial claims are denied, even for people with severe and documented disabilities. If your initial claim has been denied, it is a good idea to seek advice and representation from an attorney to begin the appeals process. In addition to helping you properly complete paperwork, an attorney can make sure that you are prepared for all hearings and that important deadlines are met.
  • Get ongoing medical treatment and advice — You have a better chance of being approved for SSDI or SSI benefits if you regularly see your doctor for ongoing medical treatment and advice. In order to be approved for SSDI or SSI benefits, you will have to show evidence and documentation of your disability.
