| Why SSD Applicants Fail
Attorneys, Judge & SSA Manager Explain |
For some people it's their only means of support. So why do so many fail at applying for Social Security Benefits?
Tonight on WFMZ-TV 69 at 7PM on The American Law Journal host Christopher Naughton, Alan Polonsky of New Jersey's Polonsky & Polonsky, Pennsylvania practitioner Jess Leventhal of Leventhal Sutton & Gornstein, the Social Security Administration's Nancy Bacak and the Hon. Roger Schwartz examine the initial application phase of applying for Social Security Disability Benefits.
Attorneys agree that the best first step is applying online. "Assuming that people have the ability to handle the computer, which is part of the problem" says Polonsky, "many of the people we represent are just not familiar with the technology, so they need some assistance in getting the information properly transcribed."
