Physical disabilities can encompass a vast range of conditions ranging from an injury, illness, disease or terminal condition. In fact, nearly any condition which creates a limitation on your ability to work is relevant to a claim. The key word is “limitation” and the key to winning many cases is documenting those limitations. Our staff can help with that process.
Social Security is sensitive that mental health conditions can prevent individuals from working. As with physical disabilities, any condition which creates limitations on a claimant’s ability to work is relevant. In cases involving mental health conditions, documenting a claimant’s limitations (e.g. what a claimant is unable to do in a work environment) is paramount to a successful claim. Our staff can assist in gathering that evidence.
Often a claimant has more than one condition which limits their ability to work. It can be important to have a knowledgeable attorney evaluate your case as a whole. It’s not uncommon for individuals to be found “disabled,” but not for the reasons they believed they were. Our attorneys can give you a free case evaluation.
