When a Missourian seeks Social Security disability benefits and their claim is denied, there are four levels of appeal that they can use to try and receive an approval. The last one is going to Federal district court. Once this attempt is exhausted, there are no more levels of appeal and the case is over. When an applicant is going through this last resort, there might be a sense of urgency. It is imperative to understand how to move forward with this level of the appeal and the time limits for doing so.
Can burn injury victims seek Social Security disability benefits?
Missourians who suffer burn injuries can face major physical, emotional and financial problems as a result. With scarring, the need for medical treatment including surgeries, an extended stay in the hospital and problems returning to work, obtaining Social Security disability benefits can be a lifesaver. However, people are frequently unaware of how the Social Security Administration goes about assessing cases of those who suffered burns. This is a key factor when being approved or denied for SSD benefits for injury with burns.

Having legal assistance for these cases is a must.
What are key points about child custody in a military divorce?
Child custody is a contentious and difficult issue for many Missouri couples who have ended their relationship and parted ways.

Communication impairments and Social Security Disability
Missourians who have suffered a brain injury or neurological disorder will often have problems communicating.

Understanding how the Social Security Administration (SSA) evaluates communication impairments is key when it is decided whether the issue meets the criteria for qualifying SSD benefits for an injury.
