What Is Evidence of a Total Disability?

Information About Disability Documentation

The attorneys at The Law Offices of Kenneth Hiller, PLLC, seek out all evidence of your medical impairment that prevents you from working and makes you eligible for Social Security Disability (SSD) benefits. Assembling this evidence is critical to filing a successful claim. Our law firm works with your physician and other medical providers to obtain the documentation needed to support your claim.

Helping Physicians Document Your Disability

In addition to obtaining the records we need to demonstrate your eligibility for SSD benefits, our lawyers give your doctors a form to complete that is tailored to the Social Security eligibility requirements. The questionnaire uses the language and terms used by the Social Security Administration, making it easier evaluate and approve your claim.

Focused Experience With SSD Benefit Claims

Doctors are not lawyers, and dealing with the Social Security Administration is not the primary focus of their practice. At our law firm, obtaining SSD benefits for clients is the main reason we exist. Over the years, we have accumulated vast knowledge of how the system works, knowledge that we use every day to help people obtain the benefits they need when they cannot work.

Functional Impairments Can Qualify You for Benefits

In addition to having one of the listed impairments that can make you eligible for benefits, you may be able to obtain benefits because you cannot perform the functional requirements of a job. Some people have mental or emotional impairments that limit their ability to interact with the public or coworkers. Others are unable to work because of environmental issues — odors, vapors, light levels or high sound levels. Still others are unable to work because their vision limits their ability to perform the requirements of the job. Our attorneys help clients demonstrate the limits of their ability to function, even if the limits are not caused by a listed impairment.
