After you get turned down for SSI or SSDI, you might feel hopeless and like you have no legal recourse available to you. All you want to do is get the judge to understand that you are really sick or injured and cannot work even part-time to support yourself or your family.
However, judges that handle these kinds of cases must safeguard the funds for these types of benefits. You may convince the judge on your case the next time when you retain counsel like a Social Security disability attorney in Stockton, CA to represent you.
Making a Better Case
When you filed your first case, you might have neglected to include pertinent information the judge needs to understand the full extent of your disability or injury. You may need to provide the court with medical records, x-rays, testimony from your doctors and other proof to make your case as convincing as possible.
Your lawyer can make sure all of this information gets filed with your appeal. You may succeed in convincing the judge of the full extent of your condition and show that you cannot work and earn an income. You may then win your case and get a back-dated settlement for the full funds the court owes to you.
