Guidance through the application process
If this is your first time applying for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI), talking things through with an experienced disability attorney can help you avoid common mistakes and increase your chances of filing a successful claim. We strongly encourage you to speak with our disability attorney about your Social Security Disability (SSD) benefits. Feel free to contact our law firm for a free case evaluation.
Fierce representation by an experienced Social Security disability attorney if your claim was denied
If you have already applied for Social Security Disability or SSI and your benefits claim has been denied by the Social Security Administration (SSA), that does not mean it's over. Contact our law firm for a free case review about appealing or reapplying for your SSDI benefits. With strong legal backing, we can help your appeal approval chances. Our disability lawyer offers a free case review.
Our lawyer offers a no-nonsense approach to personal injuries
When you or a loved one gets hurt in an accident that wasn't your fault, call us immediately. We don't pull any punches when it comes to getting justice for these types of claims. We have a team of fair and ethical personal injury lawyers ready to help when you have experienced an unfortunate accident and need support.
Social Security Disability
Depending on the physical or mental disability impacting your life, you may be eligible to receive SSDI or SSI benefits. So often, eligible disability applicants are denied because of missing or incomplete information. In other cases, they didn't effectively state how their condition impacts their inability to perform their necessary job functions. Explore this site to learn more about each. Our experienced social security disability lawyer knows what it takes to get a disability claim approved. If you have applied and your claim has been denied, he can offer you improved chances of getting your claim approved on appeal. Forrest Jackson is familiar with Social Security Disability law and the disability appeals process. He will advocate for you.
Personal Injury
If another person's mistake caused you to get hurt (for instance, in a car wreck or workplace accident) or led to the death of a loved one, you have every right to pursue justice and monetary compensation. These cases can be complex and you need an experienced attorney to advocate vigorously for you.
What should I do after a car accident or injury?
Start with a visit to the doctor, even if you don't feel hurt. Avoid making any statements to the insurance company until you can contact our law firm for guidance.
Nursing Home Abuse & Neglect
Sometimes, improperly trained caretakers can cause more harm than good to our elderly family members. When that happens, talk to our attorney about your next steps.
Important Information From Our Disability Lawyer
Even if you are disabled, eligibility for benefits depends on your specific circumstances. To learn about the eligibility requirements for SSDI benefits and SSI benefits we invite you to explore the pages on this site or call us & schedule a free talk with one of our disability lawyers so that we can answer your questions in person.
How Can A Disability Lawyer Help With Social Security Disability Benefits?
Navigating the Social Security Administration
The Social Security Act is a complex set of laws. Be aware that the majority of initial applications for disability benefits are denied. But the good news is that our disability attorney is extremely knowledgeable about these laws and the disability claims process and can help to improve your chances of getting approved. If your social security disability claim has been denied, attempting to represent yourself in an appeal hearing can be time consuming and cost you and money since you may have to reapply and start the process over if you are unsuccessful. Due to our familiarity with social security benefits and disability law, our disability attorney can help increase your chances of getting approved, including guiding you through the initial application and/or the disability appeal process.
If you are wondering whether we can help appeal your Social Security Disability denial, know that you are not required to hire an attorney during the SSDI or SSI benefits appeal process but it can help in many ways. We can help guide you through the steps of the appeal process including the initial Request for Reconsideration and the appeal hearing.
Having a disability attorney at your appeal trial strongly improves your chances for a successful outcome. Jackson Law Firm offers a case review for disabled workers at no charge.
What Can I Expect? How Much Will a Disability Lawyer Cost Me?
- If you dread the idea of working with lawyers, don't worry — that doesn't offend us. There are a lot of less-than-flattering stereotypes out there about law firms, and we completely understand why you'd prefer to settle your case with the SSA on your own.
- The truth of the matter is simple: an experienced disability attorney can mean the difference between winning or losing your case, and, if a firm has your best interests at heart, they'll work on contingency — meaning they won't charge you a dime unless they help you win. That way, you pay nothing out of pocket and only need to give them a small portion of your payout once your case has concluded.
- Jackson Law Firm, PLLC, our disability lawyers always work on contingency. Whether you are considering applying for disability for the first time or appealing a benefits claim, we always offer a free case review.
- At Jackson Law Firm, PLLC, not only do we work on contingency, but we also actively choose to work with a limited number of clients at any given time. What does this mean for you? Simple. You'll have direct access to your disability lawyer. In addition, your lawyer won't be distracted by a bunch of other cases and will be right there with you from the moment you reach out to the moment your case is resolved. We're in this with you every step of the way.
When I take on a case, I'm personally invested in the outcome. That's why I fight with everything I've got.
- Forrest Jackson
