If you’re sick and can’t work, our Chicago disability lawyers can help you get access to disability benefits Social Security provides for people in exactly your situation.
The monthly checks give you back some of the independence you lost when your health took a bad turn.
But you should know the Social Security Administration (SSA) doesn’t approve everyone when they apply for disability.
They don’t even approve most people. According to their own statistics, about 30 percent of people will be approved—even after they appeal for more chances.
In a complicated process like this, a Chicago Social Security Disability attorney can help. The disability attorneys at Nash Disability Law know disability claims inside out.
We’ve helped thousands of people over more than 40 years. Social Security Disability law is all we do. We often rank as the top Illinois-based and Illinois-focused disability law firm.
WE’VE HELPED MORE PEOPLE IN THE CHICAGO AREA WIN BENEFITS THAN ANY OTHER LAW FIRM.
Your financial future and stability depend on your Social Security Disability application, so you’ll want a seasoned Chicago disability lawyer supporting your case.
Because this is about your health and your ability to support yourself, it’s also personal. You don’t just want anyone to help you win benefits.
You want a Social Security Disability lawyer who’s focused, experienced & local.
FOCUSED.
Social Security has its own separate legal system for deciding when you qualify for disability benefits. This system has its own rules—and even its own courts and judges.
It’s different from other courts and legal situations. So look for an attorney who focuses on Social Security Disability law.
Many law firms handle lots of different cases. Working with them to apply for disability isn’t the same as getting someone who deals with the Social Security system all the time, every day—like Nash Disability Law.
EXPERIENCED.
When it’s your benefits on the line, having a Social Security Disability lawyer who’s handled thousands of disability claims means you can feel confident knowing that someone capable is handling your claim.
At Nash, we’ve seen just about every situation that can come up for people with all kinds of medical impairments, just about every reason Social Security gives to deny people, and every level of disability benefits appeals.
LOCAL.
You may find out-of-town or national law firms that say they can handle your disability case.
Be careful with them. A local disability attorney in Chicago is better.
Here’s why:
Out-of-town firms drop in without knowing the Chicago disability law landscape or taking time to know you. Nash Disability Law treats you like a neighbor, not a number.
If a physical or mental health condition looks like it will keep you from working for at least one year, reach out to us at Nash Disability Law. We have offices in Chicago and Palos Hills.
If English is not your first language, we have who speak .
WE’RE HERE TO HELP YOU IN CHICAGO FROM START TO FINISH.
When you’re applying for Social Security Disability benefits, a Chicago Disability lawyer can help you prove the three most important points in your case:
You’ll need to determine which of the two major benefits programs to apply for:
To prove that your health, employment and financial situations qualify you for benefits, you have to fill out forms, submit medical records, get statements from people who know you and more. Nash Disability lawyers can do that for you.
Such an involved process leaves you vulnerable to making mistakes. Nash disability attorneys know what questions to ask—things you might not think of—to guide your Social Security Disability application in the right direction.
You don’t pay a fee for your disability attorney until you win benefits.
You can start by talking to us about your situation and needs for no charge.
According to Social Security’s own statistics, you may be more likely to win disability benefits when you appeal a denial than when you apply in the first place.
Social Security denies a large majority of people initially. But for people who file appeals, your chances may go above 50 percent, especially when you go to a hearing with a disability judge.
And one government study found that people who had a representative like a lawyer with them at their hearing were almost three times more likely to win benefits than those who didn’t.
The Nash Chicago disability attorneys will fight to have your claim reconsidered, and we’ll guide you through the hearing process.
Every day, we help Chicago area people win the disability benefits they need for more stable, peaceful, fuller lives.
“SEEING YOU WIN BENEFITS—AND GET BACK YOUR SENSE OF HOPE—IS OUR PASSION! THE TRUTH IS, YOU INSPIRE US.”
