Instead of handling your disability claim on your own, you can depend on us to work hard to secure the life-changing benefits you could be entitled to by law. Speak with us for free today. We won’t get paid until you do.

What’s At Risk If I File My Own Claim?
Just because you can DIY your own disability claim doesn’t mean you should. Understanding what's at stake is essential as you embark on the disability claims process. Here are some key considerations:
Your chance of approval. Many initial disability claims are denied, often due to missing or insufficient medical evidence, errors in the application, or other factors. If your claim is rejected, it can lead to a lengthy appeals process or even starting the claim over again.
Timeliness of benefits. If your application is approved, you will receive benefits retroactively, but the time it takes to secure those benefits can be lengthy. Filing the claim yourself might lead to unnecessary delays if you make mistakes or the application is incomplete.
Your financial well-being. Without disability benefits, you may face economic challenges if you cannot work. This could affect your ability to meet daily expenses, medical bills, and other financial obligations.
Your peace of mind. The disability application process can be stressful and emotionally taxing. Filing your claim may require significant time and effort, which can add to the stress of dealing with a disabling condition.
To mitigate these potential risks, speak with an experienced disability attorney before filing a claim yourself. At Daggett Shuler, our Board-Certified Specialist in Social Security Disability law can guide you through the claims process, increase your chances of approval, and help ensure you receive the maximum benefits available.

Frequently Asked Questions
A disability attorney can provide essential assistance in the following ways:
Assessing the strength of your case. An attorney will evaluate your claim and help you determine if you have a strong chance for disability benefits.
Gathering and organizing evidence. Attorneys will help collect and present medical records and other relevant documents that support your disability claim. They will also ensure that all files and documents are submitted on time.
Preparing for hearings and appeals. If your claim is initially denied, an attorney will represent you in appeals and administrative hearings, increasing your chances of a successful outcome.
Advocating on your behalf. Attorneys are experienced in navigating the complex Social Security system and will effectively advocate for your case, helping you present your disability in the most compelling way.
The timeline for Social Security to decide on disability claims can vary. It may take several months. However, it's important to note that the timeline can be influenced by factors such as the complexity of your case, the volume of applications being processed, and potential appeals.
The approval rate for Social Security disability applications can vary depending on several factors, including the specific criteria of the disability program you are applying for, the strength of your case, and the accuracy of your documentation. Generally, the approval rate is around 30-35%, but it can be higher or lower in individual cases.
The Social Security Administration regulates disability attorney fees. At Daggett Shuler, we work on a contingency fee basis. This means you only pay a fee if they win your case.
