Smithfield Social Security Disability Lawyers

Free Consultation No fee unless we win!

    The Social Security Disability insurance (SSDI) program exists to help Smithfield residents who are unable to work due to a severe injury or illness. While these benefits provide you with compensation that allows you to make ends meet, it is common for the Social Security Administration (SSA) to deny these claims. Working with a skilled lawyer from our team could put you in a position to overcome this.

    For years, Rutter Mills has proudly served as Virginia Social Security lawyers. We know the difference these benefits can make in your life and are prepared to help you deal with the frustration and complexity of filing a claim. Whether you are filing for the first time or dealing with a rejection, we are ready to help.

    Required Documentation for a Claim

    Without the proper documentation, your SSDI claim will not get far. To avoid any complications, it is in your best interest to compile these documents before filing. Our experienced Virginia lawyers for Social Security disability could assist you with this process.

    The most important documentation will be your medical records. They must come from either a medical profession or some other “acceptable medical source,” which can include:

    • Licensed physicians
    • Licensed optometrists
    • Certified psychologists
    • Licensed psychologists
    • Qualified speech-language pathologists
    • Physicians Assistant
    • Nurse Practitioners
    • Licensed podiatrists

    In addition to your medical records, they will also accept lab reports other as well as other written reports. They should be current and accurate. If they are from years before the disability, they are unlikely to be useful.

    The Value of a Free Consultation

    At Rutter Mills, we understand the financial strain that can come with an unexpected disability. We also know that the idea of paying for a consultation sounds like one more expense you cannot afford. That is why the initial consultation with our personal injury lawyers is always free.

    During this, you will have the opportunity to ask questions regarding your claim. We can carefully review your case and advise you on your chances of recovery. We look forward to discussing your options with you and providing the answers to any questions you might have.

    You are under no obligation to hire an attorney for your SSDI claim. You have the right to pursue this on your own without seeking legal guidance from experienced counsel. However, this is typically a mistake.

    The SSA aggressively denies claims and will look for excuses to reject yours. Even a minor clerical error could jeopardize your benefits. Set up a free consultation with Rutter Mills to learn how we can help.
