When you are preparing to file for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) in Chicago, you need an experienced attorney on your side before you submit any paperwork. The Social Security Administration states on its own website that a majority of claims are initially denied, but even receiving that denial can take several months.

The experienced Chicago Social Security Disability attorneys at Walner & Associates can help expedite your claim and guard against denials. We will represent your interests and fight for your claim if it is denied for any reason.

Why Social Security Disability Claims are Denied

The most common reason disability claims are denied is missing or incomplete information. This can include areas on the application that did not contain sufficient information, missing doctors’ reports, or any number of other minor oversights. However, even a minor oversight can delay your claim for months, which is one of the reasons it is beneficial to have a Chicago Social Security Disability Insurance lawyer assist you with the application process.

Our attorneys are here to help people who qualify for SSDI and would be happy to meet with you free of charge to assess your claim, answer your questions, and help you determine the best course of action.

To schedule your free consultation with one of our Chicago SSDI attorneys, please contact Harvey L. Walner & Associates, Ltd. today.
