1. PEOPLE WHO ARE REPRESENTED BY LAWYERS HAVE A BETTER CHANCE OF SECURING BENEFITS THEN THOSE WHO GO IT ALONE.

The fact is that almost all the cases we take are social security disability claims that have been turned down, sometimes multiple times, by people who didn’t have attorneys. Remember the Social Security Administration is not set up to be your advocate, their job is to represent the system, not you. Statistics prove that people with lawyers are more likely to win their cases then those who go it alone.

2. TO WIN YOUR CASE YOU MUST HAVE COMPETENT MEDICAL EVIDENCE TO PROVE YOUR DISABILITY.

Another benefit to having a lawyer on your side is their ability to help you find doctors that can provide the medical evidence necessary to enable you to secure disability benefits. Secondly, an experienced social security disability attorney has the ability to present the medical evidence in such a way as to greatly increase the chances of a favorable award.

3. GETTING SOCIAL SECURITY BENEFITS DOES NOT MEAN YOU HAVE GIVEN UP.

The purpose of these benefits is to provide temporary as well as permanent assistance to those who, through no fault of their own, are unable to work over an extended period of time. If you think you may be unable to work for a long time period by all means consider filing for benefits, it’s the law.

4. IT DOES NOT COST YOU ANY MONEY IN ADVANCE TO GET A LAWYER IN A SOCIAL SECURITY DISABILITY CASE.

At Brown and Crouppen our policy in social security cases, as well as all of our injury cases, is that we never charge you any “in advance” legal fee. The only way you ever pay any legal fees or expenses is at the conclusion of your case and then only out of the money we were able to recover. If we are unsuccessful and no money is collected then any costs we incurred is our expense and of course you owe us nothing for our time. We believe we should make money only after we make you money. That’s why it doesn’t cost you any money in advance to get a lawyer in a social security disability case.
