How did the Social Security Lawyers of Berry & Associates help the claimant win disability benefits?
Berry & Associates has significant experience with Crohn's SSI and SSD cases. We know that, even between flares, the manifestations of this disease can preclude any type of work. From the beginning, we counseled our client to make sure her doctors were documenting the frequency with which she had to use a restroom on a daily basis and how often she had abdominal pain that kept her from basic activities of daily living. Through testimony the claimant explained that she uses the restroom twice per hour. Additionally, the claimant explained that her nausea is so frequent that it in itself is debilitating.
Recommendations for others with Crohn's disease that are might be eligible for Social Security Disability?
It is important to point out that this is a brief synopsis of what was a complex disability issue. Like all Social Security Disability Cases, there was a lot on the line. If you have a case similar to this one, make sure you and your doctors are documenting your condition and limitations and make you're your Social Security Disability attorney has access to these records.
