Disability lawyers are usually pretty familiar with the office and judges in their area so I would never second guess him/her.

I have read many articles and most of them say be detailed and explicit. I added a lot of pages with details. (Maybe that is why I was denited.)

I have come across a limited number of articles supporting the idea of limiting your responses.

Which is the "correct" advice? I guess it really depends on the office with which your claim is handled, maybe???

Hopefully others with much more knowledge and experience will chime in. I am clueless and just going by some of the material I have read.

I did my function report long before I secured an attorney. I actually did not get an attorney until AFTER I filed for a hearing and then knew I would need assistance.

Good luck.
