Book Reviews of How to Get SSI & Social Security Disability: An Insider's Step by Step Guide
Book Review: It Helped Us Get Approved!
Summary: 5 Stars
Without a doubt the best book out there for this purpose.
Concise information that lays out a plan.
You can be sick beyond belief and unable to move by yourself, but without the correct information on the correct forms (and proper wording), you are doomed.
It took us two tries to get disability for an ailing family member and her child.
The first try was on our own with a "Social Security Lawyer" who was slightly less useful than wings on a starship.
We had the medical records to back us up, but did not know how to organize the information into the forms SS required, nor did the attorney.
(Don't expect any law firm to do more for you than file the paperwork you provide.
Good advice is in very short supply. They will not help you decide what to put on the forms etc.)
This book tells you what the decision-makers look for, their guidelines and thought processes.
You need to explain clearly and concisely exactly how the situation prevents your loved-one from working.
This book lends a much-needed hand.
Kudos to the author.
And thank you.
Summary of How to Get SSI & Social Security Disability: An Insider's Step by Step Guide
More people are denied SSI and Social Security Disability than are allowed benefits the first time they apply. This includes children and adults. Appeals can take a year or more. In a simplified step by step guide Mike Davis gives disability applicants the crucial information they need to know and exactly what to do to make the best case the first time around. A former SSI and Social Security Disability Claims Examiner, the author has worked on over 4000 cases over a seven-year period. "Too often I have had to deny a claim when I thought there was a genuine disability, but the case was not complete enough to render a favorable decision. What I have tried to do in this book is give the reader the information needed to present his or her case fully, accurately, and in the best possible light. I believe this will increase the chances of a favorable decision dramatically." Here is the inside scoop on what the decision-makers are really looking for and how you can help them to get it.Health, Mind & Body Books
