Being a Social Security
Disability Advocate is much more than filling out an
application for someone, and more than arguing a claim
before a decision-making judge. Being familiar with Social
Security laws, codes, rulings, their POMS (Program
Operations Manual), or what is known as the Hallex isn't
enough, either. Other components are the medical and
vocational aspect and the list goes on.
You may have never heard of a particular diagnosis like PTSD
(Post Traumatic Stress Disorder), a psychiatric diagnosis,
or CRPS (Complex Regional Pain Syndrome) a physical
diagnosis. You wouldn't know the possible ramifications that
either of these may have on your ability to do work related
activity. This isn't taught in law school, nor would you
expect a doctor to be taught the Social Security Codes
regarding entitlement of benefits due to the symptoms. I've
successfully gotten benefits for many, people with each, or
both, of these conditions. Some people are able to work with
both of these impairments, which further demonstrates the
importance of having a representative who understands the
complexities of your claim and the Social Security
Administration's responsibility to determine if you are due
benefits.

Few individuals find
their niche in life. However, I've been blessed with just
that. After twenty years of working in a law office, my
first priority was to obtain SSD (Social Security
Disability} and/or SSI (Supplemental Security Income
benefits) for those who were entitled. I can say with
conviction that first and foremost this business is about
people, their families, and their lives. This is why it is
important to understand and have a working knowledge of all
aspects of representing someone who depends on me for their
future.
In November 2005, I successfully participated in Social
Security's Demonstration Project as defined within the
Social Security Protection Act of 2004 (Public Law 108-203
Section 303) becoming eligible for Governmental
fee-withholding. Requirements included that I pass a
rigorous exam to prove I have a working knowledge of Social
Security's rules and regulations as well as a background
check and several other requirements allowing me to become
an ADR (Accredited Disability Representative). As such I
agree to a strict ethical code. The overriding philosophy of
an ADR is any action taken will be in the client's best
interest and will result in no harm coming to the client. As
an ADR, I hold the client in the highest regard with the
client's welfare as the sole object of my efforts.
Your case is important to you. You want someone you can
trust to do what should be done to be certain you have a
favorable outcome. That's why so many former clients and
professionals say, "Call Mary Perry", upon hearing someone
admit they are no longer able to work. |
