Do not (DO NOT) secure an attorney until you have been denied approval -
there is no case until that time. If you know what to expect up front, you
should have no trouble. I don't know how you email me offline (private) as
I would rather not publicize my email here, but I will be happy to help you.
Each state has Social Security Administration (SSA) employees who will make
an initial judgment on your application - you must dot every "t" and dot
every "i" in order to get past that hurdle.

Subject: Disability Insurance
In general, can a person with Parkinson qualify for disability? Does anyone
have experience on this issue?
I
am in my early 60's and find that my Parkinson symptoms are making it
increasingly difficult to perform my job satisfactory. Most of the
problems are not physically visible: tremor is slight, but the toe and
leg cramps
are often unbearable, good night sleep is rare and thus constant
fatigued and depressed. I have worked for the same organization for over 25
years and paid for disability insurance every pay period. I am trying to
decide if I qualify to claim disability or if I need to
take early retirement.
Thank you for your advice,
Angie
