Step 1 – Application Assistance
Our Social Security Disability lawyers help you compile medical records, daily-living limitations documentation, work history, and relevant evidence. We prepare your SSDI or SSI application carefully with you.

• Georgia-Specific Expertise: We know SSA offices and local procedures across Georgia and nationwide.
• Affordable Access: No fees unless your claim is approved.
• Compassionate Communication: We guide you through each stage, explain SSA terms clearly, and answer your questions as they arise.

Initial decisions take about 4–6 months. Appeals can add another 6–12 months, depending on scheduling and procedural timelines.
