An experienced, local disability advocate should prove you with
- a local office in which to meet with you
- face-to-face, personal service
- an individual plan of representation
- an advocate you can meet early in the process
- answers to your questions
- personal service
Be aware that when you dial one of those 800 numbers you see on late night TV, you are probably going to get an out-of-state firm with
- a mass marketing emphasis, not personal service
- 800 numbers but no local office
- advocates you may not meet until the day of the hearing
- a philosophy of numbers: sign up thousands of cases and let the law of averages work.
The Forsythe Firm is geared toward personal, individualized representation. We have a local office in Huntsville where we will sit down with you and form a detailed plan to help you with your case. You will be able to visit us as you need and you will have our local telephone number. Contact us locally at (256) 799-0297.
Sure,
you could call one of those out-of-state 800 numbers for help with your
Social Security disability. But here is what a local disability
counselor or advocate should be able to offer you that these 800 numbers
may not:
- a convenient, private, local office in which to counsel you personally and map out a plan to represent you individually.
- face-to-face meetings anytime you need advice, have questions or need to drop off or pick up documents.
- a staff trained and dedicated to providing you with individualized, personal service.
- prompt return of your phone calls.
- in
person preparation for hearings, meetings or conferences with Social
Security - held with the representative who will actually represent you
at the hearing.
Frankly,
the boys at the 1-800 numbers generally don't have any local offices.
They don't specialize in personal service. They usually focus on
volume--handling as many cases as possible, a kind of wholesale approach
to the business.
Consider an experienced, dedicated but local disability advocate or attorney that you can walk in and meet.
The
Forsythe Firm, offices located near Bridge Street in Huntsville, would
welcome the opportunity to speak with you. Free case evaluations.
Never an upfront fee. (256) 799-0297
