Crohn’s Disease & SSD Benefits

    Advocating For Those Suffering From Crohn’s Disease

    Individuals suffering from Crohn’s disease often face a diminished quality of life as a result of the disorder, especially when the symptoms of the disease cannot be properly managed. Coping with the physical and emotional aspects associated with the intestinal disorder can be overwhelming. When the disease disrupts an individual’s ability to support his or her family, financial problems are inescapable. Individuals suffering from Crohn’s disease may be entitled to Social Security Disability or Supplemental Security Income benefits if their disease affects their ability to work and earn a living.

    From five office locations throughout northern Illinois, including Chicago, Joliet, Winfield, Libertyville and Des Plaines,  Jeffrey A Rabin & Associates, Ltd. provides experienced representation to clients suffering from Crohn’s disease and seeking Social Security benefits.

    Crohn’s Disease — What Is It And How Can It Affect You?

    Crohn’s disease is a form of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) that can affect any area of the digestive or gastrointestinal tract, from the mouth to the anus. However, Crohn’s disease typically involves inflammation of the small intestine or colon. People suffering from Crohn’s disease can suffer from symptoms such as abdominal pain, diarrhea, weight loss, nausea, loss of appetite, rectal bleeding, fatigue, skin irritations, and even joint pain or arthritis.

    There is not a known cure for Crohn’s disease. Medical treatment and therapy focus on minimizing symptoms and reducing frequency of flare-ups. Even with treatment, many people suffering from Crohn’s disease must deal with frequent surgeries, infections, gastrointestinal ulcers and malnutrition.

    Am I Entitled To Disability Benefits?

    Crohn’s disease is not specifically listed in the Social Security Administration’s medical impairment manual. However, many people suffering from Crohn’s disease are still capable of obtaining Social Security Disability (SSD) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits. The key is to fully document the medical impairment and provide objective medical evidence supporting the severity of your symptoms. A medical professional must validate the degree of impairment and its impact on your ability to work on a full-time basis.

    My experience with Jeffrey A Rabin has been very good.

    My approval of Social Security disability benefits came much quicker than I had expected. I first met with an associate on April 16, 2020 and we filed my application on May 21, 2020. My application was approved on August 3, 2020, only around a four month process. Even though we were at the beginning of this coronavirus outbreak when we started, it was easy to contact them and complete this process.

    It meant a lot to me every time I called and whoever I talked to knew all about my case. It was wonderful that I didn’t get pushed from one person to another.

    This was an outstanding experience for me from my first appointment to the last.

    This Law Firm was very professional kind and considerate of me and my disability. They knew exactly what it was like for me in the real world and absolutely essential to help me explain that and my disability to the Social Security Administration. I definitely could not have done this without them and they have changed my life for the better forever. In my eyes they are the best social security disability law firm in Chicago and the suburbs.

    I filed for my disability and got denied twice. So I decided that I needed help of a lawyer.

    I began to search and in the process of me searching I always look @ the reviews if I see more bad than good reviews I move on to the next, but not with these guys I didn’t they helped me thru the whole process and assured me if there was a problem or concern I had to reach out and they would help me anyway they could, I dealt with with a few ppl there in the office I must say from the receptionist down to the paralegals they are awesome...

    I wanted to say thank you for everything that you did for me, I greatly appreciate it.

    You believed in me when a lot and social security did not. I was a risk for you to pay for my medical records, not knowing if you would win, if I had not won you would have been out of a lot of money and time. I have known other attorney’s, and have worked with them in the past, but they are nothing like you! You are a very kind generous human being with compassion. I pray that God will bless you practice and make you very successful ...
