Hi All, I do believe that you need a lawyer that focuses on SS disability as well. They seem to get medical records from the doctors more quickly, and they are so familiar with all the red tape that it is just another day to them. That said, my son is an attorney, but will not touch my case because that is not what he specializes in. However, if I ever land in jail, he knows just how to get me out! My daughter, who is a social worker, told me that over 90% of the cases get denied the first time through and to just expect it. She was right in my case, and it was really helpful when she helped me fill out all of the paperwork. It also made her understand RSD better.

Hope everyone is having a better day, Lisa
