5 Things to Think about Before Filing for Disability in Florida

If you are filing for disability in Florida, then you already know what a hassle it can be. There is so much information required and so much paperwork to complete. While you can file a claim on your own, there is a better way: with the help of the Disability Experts of Florida. So before you file your claim, consider these five important facts about filing for disability in Florida.

Consider These Things before Filing for Disability in Florida

1. Getting Disability Benefits is not Easy:  The Social Security Administration (SSA) is notoriously tough when it comes to approving SSDI and SSI claims. Generally, getting SSDI or SSI in Florida is not easy. That’s why it’s so important to have someone by your side—someone like the Disability Experts of Florida, for example. We will fight to get you the benefits you need and deserve. Why go it alone when you can have the benefit of experienced, professional disability advocates at your side?
   
   
2. Filing for Disability can be a Hassle:  The process of filing for disability in Florida can be confusing and frustrating … and this can lead to stress and even errors on your application. Before you file your claim, consider giving us a call. We can help you understand the process and answer any questions you have along the way. We’ll help you sort through the details which will ease the process and take some of the stress out of filing for SSI or SSDI. You’ll benefit from our knowledge and experience.
   
   
3. Hiring a Lawyer Might not be Your Best Option:  If you hire a social security disability attorney to help with filing for disability in Florida, you may not get the amount of personal attention you deserve. At the Disability Experts of Florida, however, we are non-attorney disability advocates who pride ourselves on working quickly and effectively for you. We’ll be there for you when you need us. Plus, we offer you a free case evaluation. After a short review, we can tell you if you qualify and we’ll start the application process for you at no charge. We get a fee only if you win your disability benefits. So before you begin a claim on your own, give us a call and see how we can help.
   
   
4. The SSA’s Blue Book Might not List Your Condition:  The SSA has a blue book of conditions that are accepted for disability status. However, there are some conditions, like fibromyalgia, that are not listed. But that doesn’t mean that you can’t apply for fibromyalgia benefits and win. The advocates at Disability Experts of Florida understand the strengths and limitations of SSA resources and can help you file a stronger application, no matter the condition you are applying under. We can help with questions regarding specific conditions—whether or not the condition is listed in SSA’s blue book—and we can help you win. That’s why it’s so important to speak to us before filing for disability in Florida.
   
   
5. Some Conditions are Harder to Qualify for than Others:  Some conditions may be harder to prove or harder to earn benefits for. There’s also a number of other issues that could prevent you from qualifying for benefits for certain conditions. For example, if your condition is uncontrolled or has worsened because you haven’t followed medical advice, this may cause you to be considered ineligible for benefits. Luckily, we can inform you of these common issues and help to make sure that you qualify for disability benefits before you file. We have your best interests at heart and want to make sure that you earn the benefits you need.
