Why You Should Hire a Disability Attorney in Charleston

Did your long term disability (LTD) insurance company offer you a free representative in your Social Security disability claim? If so, you might be wondering why you should pay an attorney to handle your claim when a free representative is available. The offer might sound too good to pass up. But is it?

Before you make a decision about your disability benefits claim that could seriously affect your future, you need to ask yourself these questions:

• Why would an insurance company offer something valuable free? What is in it for them?

• Would you trust the most important thing in life right now—your Social Security disability benefits and Medicare coverage—to someone working for your insurance company?

• Did your long-term disability (LTD) insurance company bother to tell you that they might pay fees charged by an independent attorney of your choice?

• Do you know the qualifications of the representative that your insurance company wants you to use? Is that representative even an attorney?

• Who will advise you about your rights and legal obligations if your insurance company decides to terminate your long-term disability benefits—the free representative paid for by the insurance company?

• If your Social Security case is scheduled for a hearing before an administrative law judge, will your free representative from a far-away state come to Charleston to represent you? Will they know anything about the local judges who will decide your case?

Why is Rob Wendt your best choice for a disability benefits claim representative?

It is simple. Unlike many free representatives, Rob Wendt is a licensed attorney with over 25 years of experience handling Social Security disability claims . . . more about rob wendt>>

The Law Offices of Robertson Wendt is an independent law firm whose attorneys are licensed to practice in all state and federal courts and administrative agencies in the State of South Carolina. We do not work for insurance companies.

Many times, insurance company representatives or other claim representatives are not licensed attorneys. They do not have the education, professional experience, or advocacy skills of an attorney. Moreover, they are not ethically bound to represent your best interests.

Who wants a disability claim representative who is not a legal advocate and who may be influenced by interests other than yours?

Statistics published by the Social Security Administration show that the approval rate for all claimants represented by an attorney is higher than the approval rate for all claimants who are not represented by an attorney. A qualified disability benefits attorney like Rob Wendt prepares and files the necessary paperwork to appeal the claim, gets medical records, doctors’ opinions, and other evidence necessary to prove the claim, and files legal arguments, prepares you for the administrative law judge hearing, and appears with you in the administrative hearing.  Your Social Security claim is so important, and the process and laws are so complicated, that you cannot afford not to seek a qualified, licensed attorney to represent you.
