What We Can Do for Clients Seeking Disability Benefits

If you’ve been disabled and you’re applying for benefits, dealing with the Social Security Administration can be stressful, time-consuming and complicated.

An experienced Social Security disability lawyer can help you navigate the entire process of applying for and obtaining benefits by:

  • Assisting in filing your initial application for SSD and/or SSI benefits.
  • Filing a Request for Reconsideration if you are denied on your initial application.
  • Assisting you in communicating with the Social Security Administration (SSA).
  • Filing a Request for Hearing before an Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) if your claim is denied at the Reconsideration level,
  • Collecting treatment records from your doctors and medical providers and making sure all the relevant evidence is gathered and submitted.
  • Obtaining supportive letters from your friends and family.
  • Obtaining and submitting doctor letters and Residual Functional Capacity evaluation forms to support your application or appeal.
  • Questioning and cross-examining witnesses at your hearing.
  • Arguing the merits of your claim before the Administrative Law Judge.
  • Following up on any additional evidence requested by the judge during or after your hearing.
  • Appealing your case to the federal courts if your judge improperly denies you benefits.
  • And much more…

Justice for People with Disabilities

The effects of disability can be life-changing for the person affected as well as his or her loved ones. The financial burden can be tremendous.

Social Security disability benefits can help, but the system is notoriously complex and initial claims are often denied. In fact, more than 60 percent of first-time Social Security disability applications are turned away by the SSA even though many of them are valid, legitimate claims by people who eventually receive benefits.

Our disability lawyers have been serving the Fayetteville area since 1985, and we’re committed to seeking justice for our deserving clients.

Fayetteville is also home to Fort Bragg, the largest military base in the United States.  Our VA-accredited veterans benefits attorneys fight tirelessly for our heroes in uniform, whether active, reserves, or retired.

There are no upfront costs or attorney fees unless we get your application approved and you receive disability benefits.

What Our Clients Are Saying

At Riddle & Brantley, we strive to treat every client like family. We’re proud of what our clients say about their experience working with us:

“I would recommend them to anyone. They fought hard for me.”

-Christine W., Riddle & Brantley client

In a past post, we reviewed the differences among the different types of disability benefits.  Our experience with clients is that often times, they can qualify for all three – Social Security Disability, private long-term disability, and VA disability – when they have served in the military and worked in other non-military government jobs after their time in service.

Common Disabling Conditions

In our experience with former military clients we see a number of recurring types of disabling impairments related to military service, including:

  • Permanent, painful orthopedic injuries to the back, neck, knees and feet associated with military training (especially parachuting).
  • PTSD and related mental health conditions like depression and anxiety. Service members who are deployed, often multiple times, have a tragic occurrence rate for mental health conditions because of the experiences they endure overseas. The permanent emotional scars resulting from these experiences can render a person so incapacitated that everyday activities can become almost unbearable.

If these (or many other) service-related impairments are serious enough to prevent you from working, you can be awarded benefits, potentially from both the SSA and the VA.
