We Want to Help With Your SSD Benefits Claim
| January 29th, 2018
Social Security Disability (SSD) benefits are a government funded program for workers who get hurt or develop illnesses that prevent them from returning to their jobs for long periods of time. And while SSD benefits can be life-changing for approved workers and their families, countless people see their claims denied every year. The Social Security Administration (SSA) has strict criteria and guidelines for applicants, and many people who otherwise meet those requirements slip through the cracks due to errors, incomplete information, or missed deadlines on their applications and their appeals. At Berg Injury Lawyers, our California Social Security Disability lawyers know how the process works. We have years of experience helping clients maximize their chances of success, whether they’re applying for benefits for the first time or appealing the SSA’s decision.

Let us handle the fine print and small details while you spend time with your family.
- Guide you through the appeals process – If your application is denied and you may deserve benefits, an experienced SSD attorney can help file a strong appeal on your behalf and guide you every step of the way.
A Better Way to Seek SSD Benefits
| July 3rd, 2017
Social Security Disability(SSD) benefits are difficult to secure. In our experience, it’s not simply about whether or not you are disabled and qualify for benefits but a lack of understanding of the application process and how the system works. Too qualify for benefits, you must prove that you are unable to work. Getting that level of proof on your own can be extremely difficult, which is one of the reasons why more than two-thirds of all initial applications are denied. There’s a better way to work toward getting benefits. Call an experienced Social Security Disability attorney to handle your application from start to finish. A good portion of our SSD clients came to us after they were denied benefits, but we’d love to speak with you before you make your initial application. We know how the Social Security Disability system works, and we can help you put together the strongest application you can. Wouldn’t you rather get benefits the first time around? Call us today for a free consultation, whether or not you’ve been denied already. We’ll review your application at no cost or obligation, and do everything within our power to make sure you start getting your disability checks as soon as possible.

| September 19th, 2016
We all have dreams and aspirations for our lives. For many of us, those aspirations directly relate to the careers we choose. We want to be successful and advance up the ladder, but most of all, we want to simply provide for our families. That’s all taken away when a debilitating injury leaves you disabled and unable to work. If that’s happened to you, your best course of action is to file for Social Security Disability benefits, but don’t expect to get them on your own. The sad reality is that more than two-thirds of all initial Social Security Disability applications are denied, leaving applicants and their families wondering how they’re going to make ends meet. Often the problem lies within the Social Security Administration’s definition of disabled. To receive benefits, you must prove that you are unable to do any type of work due to your disability. Proving that on your own, without the help of an experienced attorney, can be extremely difficult. That’s why if you’ve been denied disability benefits, you should call our San Francisco Social Security Disability lawyers today for a free consultation. We’ll do a detailed analysis of your application to determine the best appeal strategy to get you the benefits you deserve. Those benefits are too important to your family for you to try and go it alone. Call us today.Why Most SSD Applications are Denied
| June 27th, 2016
Social Security Disability (SSD) benefits exist to help the disabled people of our community survive once they are unable to work. Although SSD benefits won’t make anyone rich, they can be the difference between making ends meet and abject poverty. SSD is an extension of the Social Security Act of 1935, which set aside funds specifically for Americans who can no longer earn an income on their own due to a disability. Unfortunately, securing those benefits can be harder than you might think. More than two-thirds of all SSD initial applications are denied, leaving thousands of disabled Americans without benefits every year. The application process itself can be complex and confusing, but the reason most are denied is the applicant did not provide adequate proof to satisfy the government’s definition of disabled, and therefore did not qualify for benefits. To qualify, an individual must be unable to do any work due to their disability, not just the work they did before. For instance, if you were a mechanic and became disabled, you must prove that you are unable do any job, not just work on cars. Proving that on your own can be difficult, which is why you need a lawyer on your side. If you’ve been denied benefits, call our experienced San Francisco Social Security Disability lawyers today for a free consultation. We’ve helped others just like you get the benefits they deserve. We’re ready to do the same for you.Winning Your Social Security Disability Appeal
| May 2nd, 2016
The Social Security system is one of the America’s greatest accomplishments. It provides financial support to millions of hard-working people at the end of their careers to help them make ends meet during their golden years. President Roosevelt signed the Social Security Act into law on August 14, 1935. Twenty years later, Social Security was expanded to provide financial assistance to our disabled citizens who can no longer work. As a result, we all pay at least 6% of our income to make sure these vital benefits continue for those who need them. At Berg Injury Lawyers, we dedicate our time to help disabled Americans get the Social Security Disability benefits they deserve. Why do these individuals need a lawyer to secure benefits? More than two-thirds of initial applicants are denied benefits, and with a lawyer, they have the best chance of winning their appeal.

If you’ve been denied Social Security Disability benefits, give us a call today. Our San Francisco Social Security Disability attorneys are ready to hear the specifics of your case and work to get you the benefits you deserve.
