City where case heard: Savannah State: GA Case Type: SSI Disability and SSD Disability How Social Security disability attorneys at Berry & Associates helped win this Hepatitis C with Cirrhosis of the Liver Social Security Disability caseAbstract of the Social Security Disability Case: Our client was a 46 year-old man with a work history consisting primarily of medium, semi-skilled to skilled jobs. Medical Impairment of the Claimant: His disability stemmed from his Hepatitis C with Cirrhosis of the Liver causing him severe fatigue, abdominal pain, nausea, headaches and leg edema. What level did the claimant win Social Security disability benefits? 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 form from his physician as to what our client's capabilities were. We then argued that these capabilities and limitations made his past work and other work, impossible. Through questioning, the claimant described how his fatigue causes him to lie down at least 4 hours in total during an 8-hour day, at unpredictable intervals. In fact, our client stated that he must lie down after every exertional activity and that he has very little energy. He has trouble with standing, walking and sitting for any length of time.
