Helping Rheumatoid Arthritis Sufferers Get Needed Benefits
Rheumatoid arthritis is a disease that can make rising from bed in the morning or even signing your name an agonizing experience. On the bad days, the disease becomes a nearly impenetrable barrier to handling your life, and the disease prevents many New York City residents from being able to hold down regular work.
At the Robert Koenigsberg Law Offices, our attorneys work with clients suffering from disabling illness or injury to pursue benefits through Social Security disability insurance or supplemental security income. Our attorney, Maria C. Makis, works with clients every day to navigate the often difficult bureaucracy of the Social Security Administration.
Working to Recover Your Social Security Disability Benefits
Perhaps applying for Social Security disability benefits should not require legal counsel, but with a high rate of denials, many people choose to work with a lawyer to help make sure their SSDI or SSI application is as strong as possible. Without representation, many people experience unnecessary delays or outright denials and a loss of benefits.
We understand how to build and fashion strategies to get your application through the bureaucracy. If you are suffering from rheumatoid arthritis or other auto-immune diseases, our attorney, Maria C. Makis, will work with you to get the right physician documentation and evidence to give your case the best chance.
Rheumatoid arthritis often carries with it very serious effects, including:
- Chronic pain
- Disfigurement
- Loss of joint mobility
- Fatigue
- Stiffness
These symptoms can make it nearly impossible to hold down gainful employment. Even if there are good days mixed with the bad, you can still be eligible for benefits.
