    Muscular Dystrophy — Helping You Obtain Social Security

    Muscular dystrophy, or MD for short, is a degenerative muscle disease that causes the weakening of the skeletal muscles that control movement. There are many forms of muscular dystrophy that can inflict both adults and children. The main symptoms related to these medical conditions include:

    • Muscular weakness, wasting or atrophy
    • Muscle pain
    • Balance issues
    • Mobility problems
    • Respiratory and cardiac difficulties

    There is no known cure for muscular dystrophy; it is important to provide evidence of your inability to maintain gainful employment when applying for Social Security. In order to qualify for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits, you will need to provide objective medical evidence as to the severity of your symptoms and the effects that your illness has on your ability to work.

    Work With Your Doctor To Treat Muscular Dystrophy

    The Social Security Administration (SSA) will examine your medical evidence and the treatments you are receiving. While there is no cure for this disease, it is important to work with your doctor to devise a plan to treat your condition and document your symptoms. In order to qualify for SSDI or SSI, you must show that you have significant and persistent motor skill problems in at least two extremities that cause severe mobility problems. Failing to work with your doctor may jeopardize your ability to obtain benefits.

    If you are one of the millions of Americans suffering from muscular dystrophy, you may be eligible for Social Security benefits. To learn more about your eligibility, why not contact one of our attorneys at the law firm of The Law Offices of Jeffrey A Rabin & Associates, Ltd.?

    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.

    Thank you so much for all you and the staff have done for me.

    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. Your staff was always happy; they acted like they personally know me. But most of all I CAN’T BELIEVE HOW FAST YOU HAD MY CASE DONE. You and your staff really put a smile on my face. Thank you for doing what I couldn’t get done. Everyone will know Jeffrey A. Rabin & Associate

    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 ...
