Sleep Disorders

For individuals who are filing for Social Security Disability, there are a lot of steps that are taken before benefits are awarded. First, the individual must be diagnosed as having a sleeping impairment that inhibits their ability to make an income for themselves. These individuals are, in some cases, diagnosed with impairments severe enough that Social Security Disability benefits are an option available to them. These individuals are sometimes denied benefits, a case not uncommon, however this leaves them with an increased amount owed in bills, with no way to pay it.

Do you or a loved one suffer from a type of sleeping disorder causing you to need Social Security Disability aid but are unsure of what to do? Contacting our Social Security Disability lawyers may be the first step in getting the funds you need in the form of a Social Security Disability claim.
Issues associated with sleeping disorders are:

• Narcolepsy
• Failure to concentrate
• Inability to do work related tasks
• Heart disease
• Daytime somnolence

In America today, winning a disability claim over a sleep disorder has become increasingly more difficult. It has also turned into a time consuming process and routinely denies truly disabled citizens. This results in many applicants becoming discouraged and ultimately giving up on filing a claim, or making an appeal to the claim already filed. With a Social Security Disability attorney, you will be able to avoid all the hassles associated with filing a claim for Social Security and ensure you win your case and receive your benefits as quickly as possible. This ensures the individual filing for the claim is able to support themselves during their time of illness, keeping them from being forced into a corner financially because of increased spending without an increase in income to offset it.
