Quick SSD Reversal

We were retained by a 45 year old Education Director after her Social Security Disability (“SSD”) application was denied.  She had to stop working due to Yao’s Syndrome.

Yao’s syndrome is a relatively new rheumatic condition, which is not well understood.  Having successfully obtained SSD benefits for other claimants afflicted with Yaos, we knew what clinical and opinion evidence to submit to win approval.  Fortunately, we secured the SSD benefits in a few months, without the claimant having to attend a hearing.

If you are thinking about applying for disability benefits, please contact our office for a free phone consultation at (888) 572-0861.  We have offices located on Long Island in both Nassau and Suffolk counties.
