You don't need a lawyer to apply, but there are places where you can go wrong that can hurt you later on. Having a lawyer is beneficial, and the more contact they have with you, the better. A lawyer can help you do things to help steer the process to make sure that the information going into your file is beneficial.
SSDI provides support for workers who have been severely impaired and can no longer work to support themselves. Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) is a benefit that protects against loss of income in the event a worker develops a long-term or permanent disability and can no longer work.
SSDI is administered by the Social Security Administration (SSA) but differs from Supplemental Security Income (SSI) that benefits adults and persons with disabilities.Different than SSI, SSDI is an insurance that workers pay into and earn coverage over their working careers. To qualify for Social Security Disability Insurance benefits, you must suffer from a physical or mental impairment.

Worst lawyer I have ever dealt with!!!! The day of my dad's social security hearing we found out that the lawyer had withdrawn from representing him!!! No call, no email, no snail mail! I spoke with someone that so called handles the paperwork and medical records 14 days before his hearing and she never said anything about withdrawing from the case!!!! Ridiculous!

I do not know how to put my name above, because I have no problem saying who I am. My name is Amanda, and I just ended the phone call with Mr. Lapat. Unfortunately, I was reminded of why I feel the way I do about legal counsel. He returned my initial call and due to his rush and pressure to answer his questions (when I was trying to remember specific dates for him from the last question) I didn't get to mention important things. How would I think of my important, unique points that make me an individual instead of a file on your desk, if you are asking me questions based on stereo types and assumptions
