How to Get Approved for Social Security Disability Benefits for Arthritis or Joint Disorders in Minnesota

Social Security disability claims commonly involve arthritis or joint disorders. The Social Security Administration generally evaluates our clients with these problems by how severely the arthritis or joint disorder affects moving and using arms, hands, and legs. The Social Security Administration looks particularly at medical imaging studies of joint spaces showing abnormalities that, in turn, cause limitations of motion.

There are some arthritis impairments are more likely to allow an approval. Arthritis of a major weight-bearing joint such as a hip, knee, or ankle that also impacts your ability to walk effectively can allow an approval. Age is a factor as well.

Our lawyers at Hoglund Law Offices can also explain the significance of arthritic joint problems in both arms. Cases specifically involving an inability to use one or both hands together can be quite complicated to present to a Social Security judge.

* Home visits are typically available within a fifty mile radius of the major metro areas. The Bottom Line is that you will not spend a 'dime' out of pocket for our law firm to represent you. The only way our law firm gets paid any money is if you get back back benefits. Out of the back benefits, the Social Security Administration withholds 25% of that and sends it directly to our office to pay your Attorney's Fees. You keep the remaining 75%. 99% of our clients that win their claim receive a back benefits check from Social Security. The average back benefits check paid to our clients is about $6,000 - $9,000. Now, if you receive back benefits that amount could be more or less depending on an individual's case. Remember this is only an example, but it is likely that you will receive some money for back benefits if we won your case.
