Once contact is made with an attorney, how long does the process take for social security benefits to go in effect?

[Disability Advocate]

Unfortunately, in most cases a disability lawyer does not have the ability to expedite the disability decision. A disability lawyer can, however, increase your chances of winning benefits at every stage of the process by:

Reviewing your Social Security file and medical records to make sure they clearly state your disability and your functional limitations to work
Reviewing your initial application to make sure it was correctly completed
Asking your treating physician to complete a residual functional capacity or RFC form to clearly state why you are unable to work
Prepare your case to argue before the Administrative Law Judge
Present evidence that you cannot perform jobs which a job expert claims you can perform

Keep in mind if you present a great case and prove you cannot work, you are less likely to be denied disability benefits.
