Louisiana Social Security Disability Attorney

If you are disabled and unable to work, you may qualify for monthly benefits under the Social Security Disability (SSD) program. Obtaining these benefits can be difficult. The government applies strict rules to SSD claims, and rejects most initial claims. You can appeal, but if the appeal fails your chance of getting benefits grows slim.

The help of a knowledgeable Social Security attorney can make the difference in obtaining the benefits you need and deserve. At Derren S. Johnson & Associates, you can talk with an experienced Louisiana Social Security Disability attorney free-of-charge who will look at your claim and tell you what needs to be done to achieve results in your case.

Over the years, we have helped thousands of people obtain the benefits they need to live on. We can guide you through the SSD claims process, prepare your SSD appeal, and represent you before the Social Security Disability Administrative judge. We cannot guarantee fast results, but we can assure you that in a great many of the SSD claims we have handled, we have been successful in obtaining benefits for our clients.

Preparing a Successful Appeal

The government demands that all SSD claims and paperwork comply with its requirements. When we take your appeal to the court, we will make sure that all of the medical descriptions and language match what the government asks for. In the administrative hearing before the court, our lawyer will speak the legal language of the court and the judge and will present your appeal the way the court expects. Our goal is to see that you get the benefits you deserve.

You May Be Disabled And Not Know It

Some physical disabilities are obvious, but there are hidden ailments that may be classified as disabilities under the rules of the program. Obesity, a chronic heart condition, certain mental conditions, a skin condition, or HIV positive status, or other condition can qualify you for SSD benefits in Louisiana. A Social Security Disability attorney at Derren S. Johnson & Associates can advise you of the likelihood of your ailment or disability qualifying you for the SSD program.

Coping With Financial Pressure

An SSD appeal can take months. During that time, many of our clients come under severe financial pressure. As experienced bankruptcy attorneys, we help clients in this situation obtain relief from their debts through Chapter 13 and Chapter 7 bankruptcy filings. We may be able to lift your burden of debt from your shoulders as you await the outcome of your SSD appeal.
