The requirements for a successful disability claim are not the same for every person applying for it. In fact, the standard of proof changes depending on the claimant’s age, education, and employment background. The preparation for a disability hearing before an Administrative Law Judge should start the minute a potential client calls you about their case. Richard Seelig of Seelig Law Offices, LLC will discuss the requirements of proving a disability in front of an Administrative Law Judge and provide practical strategies to prepare both your client and your record for an administrative hearing.
