Whether or not to hire a lawyer is totally up to you. Unfortunately, up to 70% of claimants are denied benefits at the initial application level. If, however, your medical records are so good that you can prove that your condition "meets a listing" you should get benefits immediately at the initial application and if you hired a lawyer you might end up paying them a lot of money for doing very little work.
If, however, you have to appeal your claim multiple times and end up arguing your claim in front of an administrative law judge, a disability lawyer is generally a good idea.
