Big brainstorm about social security benefits
Speak to a professional who deals with SSD, and keep in mind that if one lawyer rejects your SSD case, there are others who may be willing to take it on. There are attorneys that handle SSI but not SSD and there are attorneys that handle all types of situations with social security benefits. If you are not sure who to contact first there is a referral system for attorneys that specifically handle Social Security claims. This organization is called NOSSCR, or the National Organization for Social Security Claimant's Representatives. When you speak to NOSSCR, be sure to let them know your specific situation, such as a stoppage of payment of benefits (called a cessation), a claim of overpayment, etc.
