For a while I worked with ill and injured employees at the Sheriff's Office which was my final employment.

In that position I learned that applications for Social Security Disability are almost always denied on the first request. Some people I know had to go back three and four times before it was granted.

Having a lawyer experienced in the field seems to help. I have no idea what that costs. I can't make a recommendation.

Don't give up prematurely, and good luck.
