How Our Hendersonville Social Security Disability Attorney Can Help You
Applying for Social Security Disability benefits can be a daunting process, requiring a wide array of paperwork and medical information and evidence. Coping with a medical or mental health disability can make dealing with the SSD application process challenging.
While you focus on recovering your health, your lawyer will:
- Document your basic eligibility
- Compile relevant medical records for evidence
- Clarify SSD programs and benefits
- Assess your possible compensation
- Prove your financial need (for SSI cases)
- Complete and file your application
If one is available, we can also help you obtain a lump-sum SSD settlement. From the beginning of your case until its resolution, we also provide frequent and informative updates, so you always know where your application stands.

We Can Help You Apply for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI)
If you worked long and recently enough, and earned enough work credits, you could qualify for SSDI benefits. You could receive monthly financial compensation and Medicare benefits. Monthly compensation will vary according to your work history and pre-disability income.
We Can Help You Apply for Supplemental Security Income (SSI)
SSI benefits are available for disabled clients with a demonstrated financial need. We will prove you have little to no finances or resources available to you. If you meet the criteria for disability, the compensation you receive per month will vary based on your finances, assets, and residence. Your financial needs will be periodically reevaluated, and you will be asked to report any changes in your eligibility criteria.
You Could Be Eligible for Concurrent Social Security Benefits
In some cases, we help clients apply for simultaneous SSDI and SSI benefits. These are called concurrent benefits and are available when the income from your SSDI benefits is low enough to meet the income threshold for the SSI program.
Our Hendersonville Social Security Disability attorneys will clarify your dual eligibility and help you decide if you want to apply for both programs.
Persistent Legal Support Through Every Phase of Your SSI or SSDI Appeal
You do not have to stop fighting for SSI or SSDI benefits if your initial application is rejected. Farmer & Morris Law, PLLC, will represent you at each of the following four appeal phases:
- Reconsideration: A new set of eyes will review your original disability application and any supplemental evidence.
- Hearing: An Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) will review your application and reason for denial.
- Review: An Appeals Council, another new set of reviewers, will review your application and any additional information and evidence.
- Federal Court Review: A type of civil lawsuit filed in your local U.S. Federal District Court.
How long the appeals process takes will depend on how many of these phases we have to navigate on your behalf. We will not stop fighting for you or the disability benefits you need and are entitled to recover.
Get Legal Guidance Right from the Start at No Upfront or Out-of-Pocket Cost
Concern about how much it costs to hire our SSD lawyers does not have to prevent you from getting legal support for your case. Our law firm will represent you on a contingency fee basis, meaning we are compensated only when you are. You pay nothing upfront—we cover all the costs of building your case—and nothing at all if you do not receive benefits.
