Bipolar Lawyer Questions for Social Security Claims

Bipolar Disorder is a difficult disease--it is also a condition that qualifies for Social Security Disability (SSI and SSDI). Here are three questions you should ask before hiring a Social Security Lawyer.

1. How many cases have you tried?

2. Have you had cases featuring bipolar impairments before?

3. How will your office handle my case?

Here is how your questions should be answered:

1. You want an experienced bipolar disability lawyer for your Social Security Disability claim. You don't want a person that works with cases on occasion, but rather one that has significant experience with presenting (and winning) bipolar Social Security Disability benefits for clients.

2. Yes! If the disability lawyer has experience then he should have enough knowledge to explain to you the specifics that a Social Security examiner or judge would be looking for from a documentation standpoint.

3. Your disability lawyer, if experienced, should be in court regularly defending other clients in Social Security disability cases. When you hire a bipolar disability lawyer you're also hiring a trained set of paralegals as case mangers for your bipolar disability case. You want to ensure the office is well staffed, but remember it is very important to ensure your disability lawyer is the ultimate person in charge of our disability case and that this responsibility is not delegated to a paralegal.
