Hello everyone!
Once again the fine folks at PEB Forum can come save my anxiety ridden !@# from a panic attack.
I applied for SSDI way back in Sept 2012 while living in florida, got denied, appealed, got denied, submitted for a court hearing.
Fast forward to 2 days ago, I received a packet in the mail saying they want to settle things out of court and provided a CD with everything on it. I thought....hell....might as well try this right;
So I wised up and started calling attorneys....Here is where i need HELP!
I live in Tulsa Oklahoma and I had to educate every one of the attorneys on the Wounded Warrior process and the exemption from the SGA (Per the SSR- 84-24) The only reason I knew the ruling was because I looked it up while the attorney was trying to tell me it didnt exist...
Now dont get me wrong, I live in Tulsa and this is not a military community, as such the attorneys are just not versed. (Noone can know everything!)
But That seems to be EVERY attorney, I am talking with one that is willing to delve deeper and actually give me the light of day! (The rest just say....not going to happen) He seems really cool, and actually was a referral so maybe, just maybe, he is the guy to get the job done!
My questions and requests from you are:
Did you require an attorney?
What attorney did you use (If yuou can provide their number, It would be amazing!)
Any other suggestions.
Thanks!
