    Assistance With Applications And Appeals

    Do you need assistance in filing your application for Social Security Disability benefits, but have been told by other attorneys that they will not assist you until your claim has been denied? Are you afraid you will be turned away because you do not have the money to pay attorneys’ fees?

    You are not alone. If you find yourself in this situation don’t despair; we can help! Our lawyers have more than 20 years of experience in representing disabled claimants nationwide at all levels of the Social Security claims process, and we can help you.

    If you are like most people in your situation you are wondering how one qualifies for Social Security Disability benefits. In order to qualify for Social Security Disability it is necessary to be able to prove that you are “totally disabled.”

    What Is Meant By ‘Totally Disabled’?

    Social Security Disability benefits are often available to people who are suffering from medical problems that produce symptoms so severe that they cannot perform any type of work — not just the work you were doing when you got sick or injured. The Social Security Act requires medical proof documenting the inability to work for a period that has lasted, or is expected to last, at least 12 months, or result in death. While age, education and work history are considered, in most cases these factors do not help the claimant. This is the basic requirement for the two disability programs, SSDI and SSI.

    What Medical Problems Qualify For SSDI Or SSI?

    Any “medically determinable impairment” that makes it impossible for you to work for at least 12 months can qualify for disability benefits. At The Law Offices of Jeffrey A Rabin & Associates, Ltd. , our attorneys have successfully represented people with many different medical problems including chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, lupus, reflex sympathetic dystrophy, multiple sclerosis, ankylosing spondylitis, chronic headaches, depression, hepatitis C, PTSD, bipolar disorder, multiple chemical sensitivities, congestive heart failure, asthma, emphysema, diabetes, cancer, Huntington’s disease, rheumatoid arthritis, muscular dystrophy, liver and kidney diseases and other chronic pain disorders. While this is not a complete listing of all the diseases that qualify for SSDI or SSI, it does provide you with some examples.

    Why Our Clients Trust Us

    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 ...
