Our Disability Lawyers Can Help You Establish a Safety Net

No Work, No Pay, No Home: How Our Disability Lawyers Can Help You Establish a Safety Net in Case of an Eviction

Due to the severe back log that the Social Security Administration faces, it can take some claimants up to 2 years before getting their benefits. Our Disability Lawyers is often asked, “what am I supposed to do until then?” We can empathize with the horror of finding yourself without a home. Therefore, we have taken great care in establishing a comprehensive, nation wide list of shelters you can consider. The idea is, call these centers now if you think you may end up in dire need. Take a look at the different options you have and visit the sites of the shelters. This way, if a very difficult situation arises, it may be a bit smoother.

Our Disability Lawyers aim to make the process for getting benefits as quick as possible. If you do find yourself in a situation where you can no longer afford a place to live, be sure to keep any and all documents of an eviction. If you have not been evicted, but simply have no money, at least explain that to your landlord and have the landlord write a letter stating the exact date that you had to leave your home due to the inability to pay rent. This way, our experienced advocates can make a “Dire Need Request” to Social Security to get your case heard quickly.

We hope that you will take the time to contact and visit the shelters on our website. Hopefully the time will never come where you have to leave your home, but if such an unfortunate situation arises, we want to help you prepare and get through it. Also, look at the link for Low Cost/No Cost Health Care so that your medical records are maintained even in the event you cannot afford health care.
