How to talk to an Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) in your Social Security disability hearing:

1. Be respectful: Refer to them as "your honor" or "judge", answer their questions directly, do not monologue.

2. Stay calm and focus on telling the truth about how your symptoms impact your day to day life.

3. Do not interrupt the judge or talk over them.

The hearing is not nearly as stressful as some people think it is. In fact, it's usually boring. Try to stay focused and listen to the questions the judge or your representative asks you, and answer the questions directly.

For example, if the judge asks you how long you can sit for, don't answer with "it depends"

If the judge asks you about your pain levels, don't start talking about your mental health.

📝 What is an "ADL" form, and why does it matter so much for your disability claim?

An "ADL" form stands for Activities of Daily Living. It’s a questionnaire Social Security sends you to learn about your day-to-day life. They ask questions like:

Can you cook or clean?

Do you need help getting dressed?

How long can you sit, stand, or walk?

Do you need reminders for medications?

Why does this matter?
Because how you answer can make or break your disability case. If Social Security sees you’re struggling with daily tasks, it helps prove you really need disability benefits.

👉 Don’t rush through it. Take your time.
👉 Be honest.
👉 Give clear examples of things you can’t do or things that cause pain or difficulty.

If you have questions, call our office! We’re here to help you get this right.

📬 Quick reminder for our current clients!

If you’ve changed your phone number, address, or email, don’t forget to let us know. It may seem like a small thing, but staying in touch is a big deal for your case.

Here’s why:

⚠️ If we or SSA can’t reach you:
• You could miss an important deadline
• Your case might be denied or dismissed
• Appeals can be lost simply because mail went to the wrong place

We know the disability process takes time — but when things move, they can move quickly. Keeping your contact info up to date helps us protect your claim.

To update any of your contact information, give us a call at 615-453-9151, Mon-Fri.

📘 Did You Know?

Most Social Security disability claims are denied the first time around — not because the person isn’t disabled, but because of missing medical evidence or paperwork errors.

The process is complex by design. SSA isn’t just looking at your diagnosis — they evaluate how your condition affects your ability to do basic work activity day in and day out.

That’s why:

- Detailed medical records matter

- Consistent treatment history is crucial

- Work history forms are more important than most people realize

Disability law isn’t about guessing — it’s about presenting the right evidence in the right way.

Understanding how the system works can make the difference between denial and approval.

⏳ Waiting on your disability decision?

We know how stressful the wait can be. The Social Security disability process takes time — often several months for an initial decision, and well over a year if an appeal is needed.

✔️ We’re monitoring your case every step of the way
✔️ We’ll act immediately if SSA requests more information
✔️ You’ll hear from us the moment there’s movement on your file
✔️ Our offices are open Monday-Friday and we're more than happy to help if you have any questions or updates for us

You can call our main office at 615-453-9151, or email/text your case manager directly. If you don't have your case manager's information, comment below and we'll make sure you get it.

Waiting to get a decision for your Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) claim can be a long wait. Far longer than it should be due to how backlogged Social Security Administration is with cases.

One of the most common questions we get asked is, "What am I supposed to do in the meantime" or "How am I supposed to get by?"

Unfortunately, we don't have a great answer for that. The wait times are often the hardest part of this whole process. Although they won't solve all your problems, here's a list of other financial assistance programs you can apply for in the meantime that will help you out while you're waiting on Social Security to make a decision:

1. **Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)**: Provides funds specifically for groceries.

2. **Medicaid**: Offers healthcare coverage if you have low income and limited resources.

3. **Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF)**: Provides temporary financial assistance and supportive services.

4. **Housing Choice Voucher Program (Section 8)**: Assists with rent payments for eligible low-income households.

5. **Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP)**: Helps cover energy bills and utility expenses.

6. **Short-Term Disability (STD)**: Sometimes available through your employer (or state if you're in CA, HI, RI, NY or NJ), STD offers temporary financial support when you're unable to work due to health issues.

In February of 2025, the Social Security Administration paid benefits to 7.2 million SSDI claimants and 7.4 million SSI claimants.

It's a long, frustrating process, but it's worth it. To everyone awaiting a decision, stay strong and don't get discouraged!
