Applying for disability can be overwhelming
Full Representation For
If you are suffering from a disability that prevents you from working, currently being treated and ready to apply for social security disability, Cooper Law can help.
We handle initial applications, reconsiderations and hearings.
Whatever stage you are in with your social security disability claim, we’ll take it from there. Whether you are just starting the process, or you have already applied and been denied, contact us for an initial consultation to determine next steps.
Applying for disability with attorney representation increases your chances of approval by 48%.
We also partner with the Department of Human Services (DHS) to provide SOAR* advocacy for clients experiencing homelessness or at risk of homelessness. SOAR clients are represented for free.
*What is SOAR? SSI/SSDI Outreach, Access, and Recovery (SOAR) is a national program designed to increase access to the disability income benefit programs administered by the Social Security Administration (SSA) for eligible adults and children who are experiencing or at risk of homelessness and have a serious mental illness, medical impairment, and/or a co-occurring substance use disorder. How it works: the application process is the same as our other Social Security Disability claims, but we spend a little more one-on-one time with each client to understand your personal story and the unique challenges you’re facing. Trained advocates from Cooper Law will walk you through the application process.
Supplemental Security Income (SSI) pays benefits to disabled adults and children with limited income and resources.
All clients apply for both at the same time, to get you the best possible result.
The 2020 income limit is $1260 per month for non-blind individuals, or $2110 per month for statutorily blind individuals.
