Charlottesville, VA — Suffering from psychological problems can be as severe and disabling as any physical ailment. And when they prevent you from working, the loss of income is an additional devastating blow that you must also cope with. But where do you turn for financial help? The good news is that our government makes available, through the Social Security Administration, monthly disability cash benefits for people who can no longer work due to mental and/or physical disabilities. The bad news is that even though you have a right to the benefits, the SSA doesn’t just hand it to you.

“Applying on your own for disability benefits can be a lengthy, confusing and frustrating experience for most people”, says Dr. Harley Burke, a Ph.D. in clinical psychology and owner of Disability Claims Representatives of America, a non-attorney, private disability advocacy firm. Dr. Burke points out that, “because of the government’s extremely strict standards, nearly two thirds of all first time applicants are denied benefits, and to make matters worse they have no idea why they have been turned down or what to do next”. Hence the creation of Disability Claims Representatives of America, a unique service which specializes in the representation of Social Security disability claimants. Its sole purpose is to help guide people through government bureaucracy and get the benefits to which they are entitled and desperately need. Interestingly, the government’s own records reveal that applicants who are assisted by a representative are much more likely to receive benefits than those who apply on their own.

Living with a disability, being out of work, having no income, and trying to comprehend the government’s application process, can be almost too much to bear. Trying to cope with these tormenting emotions can lead to incomplete or inaccurate application reporting, or unwillingness to even begin or complete the process. The result is that people lose out on many thousands of dollars that they otherwise would have been granted.

During his years in private practice evaluating and counseling disability claimants with psychological problems, Dr. Burke was exposed to that sad scenario numerous times. His sensitivity to and compassion for those struggling with mental impairments, now motivates him and his company to use their expertise in obtaining benefits for their clients in as simple and stress-free way as possible.

Disability Claims Representatives are trained advocates who know all about Social Security’s complex rules and forms, and understand what the government requires from those seeking disability benefits. A free case assessment will tell you exactly what your chances are of winning benefits, and you pay nothing until you are awarded benefits. Your application or appeal is handled from start to finish, all necessary forms are gathered and submitted, and your case is professionally prepared for review. Regardless of where you live in the country, the service can be conveniently offered via telephone and mail. “It’s really a shame…” as Dr. Burke asserts, “…that most people don’t even realize that the government has money for psychologically disabled workers and that we are here to help them acquire it”.
