It has been heard over the years that when people try to get social security disability, they are denied at least twice. Then, they are told that on the third time (as if by magic), you automatically get it. This is the farthest from the truth. The fact is, as long as the applicant meets the rules that the Social Security Administration requires, he or she will usually be approved. The problem is that most people don’t know how to answer the questions that the Social Security Administration requires. It requires the skill of a litigator who is experienced in handling these type of cases.
There is a law firm who practices SSDI Law in New Bedford MA. The lawyers at the firm have seen many people who have come to them disappointed that they were turned down for their social security disability. Ideally, one would think that because a doctor stood behind an individual and confirmed his or her illness, that the SSA would automatically accept that as a faithful witness. Once again, for the purposes of the SSA, there are certain factors that must be met to be considered disabled.
The Social Security Administration determines that being disabled for their purposes means that the individual is no longer able to perform the work he or she was doing or any work that the applicant can reasonably do to make a living. These facts must be verified by a doctor, but it doesn’t just stop at that level. If the SSA finds that the person is able to do something to earn an income, he or she will likely be denied. This is why an attorney is preferable to have in order to exhaust every possible legal option.
