CLOSING

If you are not able to work (disabled) you should consider filing a claim for Social Security Disability benefits and Supplemental Security Income benefits. Remember, the disability must be total and expected to last at least 12 months or to result in death. If you can't decide if you would qualify, you should seek the opinion of an attorney. Attorneys Jan Fisher and Mitch Wulfekoetter would be happy to give you a free legal consultation. You can reach them by phone at (785) 233-2323.

Remember, you have only 60 days to file an appeal of a denial. If you are denied, do not give up. A large percentage of applicants are denied early in the process but are awarded benefits later on in the appeals process. The process of appealing is not necessarily complicated, however, it is suggested that if you need to appeal your case, you should seek consultation with a qualified attorney. If you have been denied, it likely means that the issue of disability is not clear cut and it may require representation by an attorney to properly appeal your claim and ultimately prove your disability.
