The government gives out disability benefits with Social Security Disability Insurance and Supplemental Security Income. To receive those benefits, your injury must disable you for not less than a full year. To receive benefits for short-term injuries, there are some other government programs available.
A disability attorney can lead you through the entire process of making an application for disability benefits. That is our purpose for the people of Wentzville, St. Charles, Kirkwood, St Peters, St. Louis, and Collinsville, Illinois at Kassin and Carrow. We can manage everything from the initial application to the appeal to preparation for the questioning. As your disability attorneys, you can expect Kassin and Carrow to:
- Assess your claim and explain it to you
- Gather medical and other evidence
- Take your Social Security Disability file and collect the necessary documents
- Appeal for past benefit applications to be reviewed
- Coordinate with your doctor to make a report that follows Social Security guidelines
- Get you ready to testify at a hearing if need be
- Make the right statements at a hearing
- Give wise counsel about appeals
