If you live in Alabama, why not get an Alabama advocate to help with your Social Security disability problem? Why not get a Huntsville advocate?
If you call one of those 800 numbers you see on late night TV, you will get an out-of-state firm which probably does not have an office in Alabama. You may not meet your advocate until a few minutes before your hearing. You will not be able to walk into an office, close the door, and speak on-on-one about your case.
The Forsythe Firm, on the other hand, maintains an office near Bridge Street in Huntsville, serving all of North Alabama. We also have an office in Franklin, TN for our clients in middle Tennessee.

Sure, you could call one of those out-of-state 800 numbers for help with your Social Security disability. But here is what a local disability counselor or advocate should be able to offer you that these 800 numbers may not:
- a convenient, private, local office in which to counsel you personally and map out a plan to represent you individually.
- face-to-face meetings anytime you need advice, have questions or need to drop off or pick up documents.
- a staff trained and dedicated to providing you with individualized, personal service.
- prompt return of your phone calls.
- in person preparation for hearings, meetings or conferences with Social Security - held with the representative who will actually represent you at the hearing.
Frankly, the boys at the 1-800 numbers generally don't have any local offices. They don't specialize in personal service. They usually focus on volume--handling as many cases as possible, a kind of wholesale approach to the business.
Consider an experienced, dedicated but local disability advocate or attorney that you can walk in and meet.
The Forsythe Firm, offices located near Bridge Street in Huntsville, would welcome the opportunity to speak with you. Free case evaluations. Never an upfront fee. (256) 799-0297

Trying to sign up for Social Security disability benefits?
Find the process too complicated, confusing and frustrating?
I think Social Security is one of the most complicated and overwhelming things the average person will ever try to do. The language is difficult, the process is burdensome, and the burden of proof is demanding.
That's why most people trying for disability benefits use professional representation. Let the pros handle the government red tape while you go about your life. Your advocate will obtain the evidence required, complete the forms, and handle the mediation.

SSDI = The regular Social Security disability insurance claim, also called Title 2.
SSI = Supplemental Security Income, also called Title 16.
Why should you file an SSDI claim instead of an SSI claim, if possible? You may need to file both claims; however, here is why an SSDI or Title 2 claim is usually better:
- SSDI will usually pay a much higher benefit than SSI. (See below).
- SSDI has no "means test," doesn't require you to be poor or have very limited resources or very restricted household income. SSI qualification is based on resources and household income, including, for example, your spouse's income.
- SSDI will come with Medicare, whereas SSI comes with Medicaid.
*The maximum SSDI benefit for an individual is $2,633 in 2016. The maximum federal SSI benefit for an individual is $733 in 2016.
**To file an SSDI or Title 2 claim, the claimant must have acquired a sufficient number of quarters of work credits. Generally, this means he or she has worked at least 5 out of the last 10 years.
