Decades of Experience to Help You Secure Benefits

When you need help obtaining benefits, Iowa Social Security Disability attorney Hugh Field offers reliable legal representation.

Hugh has decades of experience and an in-depth understanding of the framework used by the Social Security Administration to determine eligibility for benefits. Our social security benefits lawyer assists clients with the initial application and appeals for claims that have been denied.

Obtaining Social Security Disability Benefits

Applying for Social Security Disability benefits can be a complicated and lengthy process. About 70 percent of applications are initially denied.

The good news is that about half of these are approved during the administrative hearing in the appeals process. However, it can take a long time to get a hearing scheduled. Having a social security benefits lawyer help you navigate the process can improve your chances of success.

In order to secure benefits, the claimant must:

• Have a condition that is covered by Social Security’s impairment listing
• Be unable to work at any of his or her past jobs
• Be unable to work at a less strenuous job
• Not be earning more than the substantial gainful activity (SGA) level
• Be insured under the program by working and paying taxes into the system
• Hugh has extensive knowledge of the process used by the Social Security Administration to qualify people for benefits.

We will work with you to prepare your initial application or appeal with sufficient information and documentation to support your claim and help increase the likelihood of an approval.
