I know I sound like a broken record but I say this to every client I have:

“You bear the burden of proving that you are disabled Alprazolam For Sale, .”

In other words, SSA doesn’t want to hear about you not having any insurance. SSA doesn’t want to hear about how expensive doctors are. SSA doesn’t want to hear about what you can and cannot afford. The hard core truth is summed up in one simple phrase:

“You bear the burden of proving that you are disabled.”

The moment you go to the Social Security Administration office, the moment you have your phone interview, or the moment you apply for disability benefits online, you are telling the government two simple phrases:

1. Online buying Alprazolam hcl, I can’t work because of my disability

2. I can prove it.

And what does that mean to you? You, get Alprazolam. Is Alprazolam safe, The individual with no insurance. No money, Alprazolam mg. No healthcare.

If you have some, low dose Alprazolam, Alprazolam blogs, you need to spend it wisely.

If you have money to spend on liquor, Alprazolam steet value, Alprazolam cost, you’d better not complain about not being able to afford a co-pay. And don’t get me started on illegal drugs. You are really going to get an eye roll if you are able to afford a habit of using marijuana, crack or cocaine. Wait, Alprazolam no prescription, No prescription Alprazolam online, you can find money to buy illegal things but you can’t find money to pay for your healthcare to prove you’re disabled.

And let me tell you this much: If you go in front of a judge, Alprazolam wiki, Doses Alprazolam work, he/she is going to ask you about everything I just mentioned. If you live in a city with county health care resources, you are not going to get any sympathy if you haven’t used them. If you have free clinics in your county, generic Alprazolam, After Alprazolam, you are not going to get any sympathy if you haven’t used them. Most importantly, if you can find money to buy cigarettes, Alprazolam schedule, Alprazolam price, coupon, alcohol, or drugs but you can’t use that money to buy medicine or go to the doctor, Alprazolam duration, Buy Alprazolam online cod, get ready to be denied.

Plain and simple everyone:

(Let me say it to you one more time in case you missed it the first two times)

“You bear the burden of proving that you are disabled.”

Don’t KILL your case!

Anthony Reeves — Tue, 16 Jun 2009 13:56:48 +0000

The legal process is a frustrating beast and let me be the first to tell you, the BEAST always wins! Now, I am not saying that the BEAST will beat you but what I am saying is that most people get so upset with the waiting, the red tape, and all of the little steps you have to take in order to get from point A to Point B that they sometimes do things in order to fight the BEAST. If you've hired an attorney, your attorney is trained to fight for you as well as deal with this BEAST that is known as the LEGAL process. Unfortunately, too many times, people will do things that may potentially HURT (or even KILL) their case: 1) Talking to witnesses on your own. Depending on the situation, you really should let your attorneys talk to potential witnesses. Why? One, attorneys tend to fully document the context of the conversation. Two, attorneys tend to have specific, well crafted questions that they ask which will give them an idea of whether the witness's information is helpful or harmful. Three, what you tell your witnesses may eventually come back to bite you in court. You don't know how someone will convey what you said to them. 2) Sending in your own evidence. So you found something that you think is useful, that's great. Make sure you let your attorney see it first. Most attorneys are aware of discovery requirements but if you decide to give the other side some information that you didn't necessarily have to give and it's damming to you..........do I need to go further?? 3) Taking steps without consulting your attorney. If you are going to do what you want to do, then you probably don't need an attorney. Most attorneys work to carefully lay out a plan of attack to deal with any issues or problems that may arise and if you decide that you are going to do things that undermine that, the attorney can't help you. 4) Responding to the court or the other side on your own. If you get documents from the court or the other side, unless you don't have an attorney, please be careful not to respond. So much time, we think that if respond to someone right away, it will help our case. 5) following the advice of someone who is NOT your attorney. I had a friend of mine who is an attorney tell me that she has to tell her client's all the time "I didn't know they gave out law degrees at the gas station?". The reason she says this is because so many times, her clients will come to her FIRED up because someone who is NOT an attorney will tell her client something and then come to her HOT! Becareful about following the road of some person who THINKS they know what's going on when in reality, they don't. Like I said, the legal process is a BEAST but don't add to the problem by giving the BEAST food to eat. The process is tough but it can be tougher if you do things to make it worse.

If you need help, don’t have an attitude

Anthony Reeves — Thu, 04 Jun 2009 15:08:02 +0000

I am always amazed how people who feel that they have some sense of entitlement or feel that they have a strong case or feel that you have DUTY and RESPONSIBILITY to help them tend to communicate these feelings in an aggressive manner. In other words, I'm always amazed by people who are asking for help will get an 'attitude' when you don't jump up and pay attention. I know these words may seem over simplified and PLEASE don't think that I am trying to insult ANYONE's intelligence. However, you have to keep things in their proper perspective. When you are trying to ask someone to help you with a matter or situation that needs to be resolved, the last thing you want to do is walk into their office or their space and ACT like they need to 'buck up and step right'! Some of you may still be confused about what I am talking when I'm saying these things. Let me take it a step further. Anytime you are dealing with people who are providing professional services, you have to remember that they are professionals and they are offering to provide a service. Remember, this is just an OFFER! They don't HAVE to serve you. It really doesn't help your situation or your case to walk around with your lip poked out or your chest poked out think that you are entitled to receive a certain amount of treatment or service just because YOU demand it. Now, don't get all bent of shape. I'm not saying that if you have a great case that you should be humble or that you should be shy. What I am saying is that you gotta be careful going into a meeting or discussion with a professional (like a doctor, mechanic, or attorney) and have this chip on your shoulder. And for those of you who still may not understand why some professionals may not like to deal with an attitude, here are a few other things to consider: 1) If you got attitude now and you are ASKING for help, what makes you think you want have MORE attitude later. Think about it. Here you are asking for help and you got ALLLLLL kind of mouth! When you step to someone like that, there is no reason to believe it won't get worse. 2) Life is filled with stress already so why should YOU add to it? I work with people all the time who are devastated by their financial situation. So I understand how stressful life can be. In all instances, I reiterate to people that I am THERE for them so they understand that I am a part of the solution and not the problem. However, some professionals have a lot of stress to deal with it and if YOU are going to add to that stress, then why should they bother? 3) You MIGHT be a NIGHTMARE! Sometimes, when you complain a lot or have an attitude about everything, this sends a HUGE message to the professional that you may have some unrealistic expectations about what you expect to have happen. As a result, this may be a problem because if you have it in your mind of what YOU expect to have happen (despite what is being told to you), you may make things more difficult for those who are trying to help you. 4) Just because I have a suit on doesn't mean I am SOFT! Sometimes, we get into these positions where we believe that individuals who provide us services are weak. As a result, we feel the need to exert our influence on them to let them know that we will not be denied. However, don't EVER think in your mind that just because someone is polite and articulate and has a suit that they can't get JIGGY!! I knew an attorney who cussed someone out who was repeatedly rude to her despite her best efforts. After several visits, she clicked and he learned very fast that she was much more aggressive than he thought she was. Now, I am not going to sit around here and act like I have never had an attitude about something. I have walked around with the hoochie and gotten live with people on more occasions than I probably should have. However, after almost 8 years of practicing law, I realize that you really get more out of people when you are kind as opposed to kinding being rude. Remember, if you don't want anyone coming at you with attitude, what makes you think that they want attitude?
