The team at ASSIST takes the SSD/SSI disablity application process to a whole new level
Our well-trained staff will give you the hand-up you need to navigate the process of filing, appealing if necessary, and straight through to receiving your benefits.
- We thoroughly collect the evidence.
- We become SSA’s eyes and ears so they understand how severe your condition is.
- We provide good descriptions to make it easier for SSA to process your claim sooner.
In actuality it is usually the lack of support and preparation that result in denials.
