At a hearing before an Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) How did the Social Security Lawyers of Berry & Associates help the claimant win disability benefits? Early on we counseled our client to carefully document all of his symptoms with his physician. As a result, we were able to obtain a written opinion from the physician as to what our client's capabilities were. We then argued that these capabilities and limitations made his past work, an dother work, impossible. Through questioning, the claimant described how he has shortness of breath and severe fatigue that causes him to lie down at least 2 hours total in an 8-hour day. In addition, the claimant stated that he also needs to elevate his legs due to pain and numbness.
