Chicago Social Security Disability Attorney

Helping Illinois Residents Secure the Disability Benefits They Deserve

Applying for Social Security Disability (SSD) benefits can be a long, frustrating process. The forms are detailed, the rules are strict, and unfortunately, the majority of initial claims are denied. A denial does not necessarily mean you are not entitled to benefits, but it does mean you must take further action to prove your eligibility. Whether you are filing for the first time or appealing a denial, having an experienced attorney on your side can make all the difference.

Attorney Joseph P. Doyle has been helping disabled individuals in Chicago and the surrounding areas for years. We work to ensure our clients’ rights are protected, their applications are complete and accurate, and their voices are heard in every stage of the process.

Our firm represents clients in all types of Social Security Disability matters, including:

• Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI): For individuals who have worked long enough and paid into the Social Security system but are now unable to work due to a qualifying disability.
• Supplemental Security Income (SSI): For individuals with limited income and resources who meet the Social Security Administration’s disability requirements.
• Appeals and hearings before an Administrative Law Judge: If your initial application is denied, we can handle all aspects of the appeals process, including gathering medical evidence, preparing testimony, and representing you at hearings.
• Long-term disability benefits coordination: We help ensure your SSD benefits work in coordination with any private or employer-provided long-term disability insurance.

Why Work With Attorney Joseph P. Doyle?

Disability law is highly specialized, and small mistakes in your application can result in months or even years of delays. 

Working with an experienced Chicago disability attorney gives you the advantage of:

• We have a proven track record in disability claims. We understand the rules, procedures, and documentation needed for success.
• We know how difficult it is to face a disabling condition and will treat you with dignity and respect.
• There are no fees unless we win your case. You pay nothing up front. Our fees come only from a portion of your back benefits if we are successful.

The SSD Application and Appeals Process

The Social Security Administration has a strict set of guidelines for determining whether an applicant qualifies for benefits. 

We guide you through each step:

• Initial Application: Preparing and submitting complete, accurate forms and medical records.
• Reconsideration: Filing an appeal if your claim is denied at the initial stage.
• Hearing Before a Judge: Presenting evidence and testimony to an Administrative Law Judge.
• Further Appeals: If necessary, taking your case to the Appeals Council or federal court.

If you’ve been denied Social Security Disability benefits or need help applying, Attorney Joseph P. Doyle is here to help you navigate the system and fight for the benefits you need.
