What is a disability attorney?
A disability attorney is a trained legal professional who specializes in representing clients in disability claims and appeals. In South Carolina, disability attorneys are certified and regulated by the South Carolina Supreme Court. They work with clients to understand their legal situation and advise them on the best course of action for disability claims and appeals. They help their clients complete necessary legal paperwork, guide them through the administrative appeals process, and represent them in court if necessary. Disability attorneys will also work with medical professionals to establish a disability and to demonstrate to the court or administrative body that the reality of the client’s situation requires disability benefits. Living with a disability can be difficult and disability attorneys are specialized to ensure that their clients receive the benefits they rightly deserve. With their expertise, disability attorneys can also help educate their clients on the complexities of the disability planning law in South Carolina.
