Getting Started with Ginsberg Law Offices

How Do I Hire Ginsberg Law Offices to Take my Disability Case?

The best way to get started with Ginsberg Law Offices is simply to download my Georgia Social Security new client questionnaire, fill it out with as much information as possible, and fax the completed form to me at: 770-393-0240.

You may also call my office direct at: 770-393-4985.  When you call, ask for my paralegal Judy Bledsoe or her assistant Yolanda Gaston. They both can gather the information I will need to determine how strong your case is and how we could best help you.

These are the factors that my firm considers when deciding to accept a case:

  • Whether there is a definite diagnosis regarding your medical or psychological condition. There is nothing wrong with multiple diagnoses, the main importance is that you have medical evidence backing up your claim.
  • Whether you have a longstanding, regular record of medical treatment. Again, medical records are key to success in disability cases.
  • If you have good work history before your disability.
  • Whether your treating doctor will support you in your disability case?
  • Is your reliability for working affected by a physical or psychological problem?
  • Do you have any accusations of alcohol/drug abuse or drug seeking behavior recorded in your medical record?

Many cases do not meet all the criteria above, and we have indeed won some cases that do not met any of them. However, because we invest so much time into your case (it can take up to 3 years to get a decision) and work by a contingency fee contract (you don’t pay us unless we win), we prefer to have positive answers to some of the criteria listed above.

Our firm will also have to take into consideration where you live. If you live somewhere far away from our firm here in Georgia, we may have to recommend you to a colleague. Additionally, there are often local rules and customs that pertain to Social Security law. Thus you want to hire a lawyer who is familiar with the rules in your area and who knows the judges.

As a Georgia Social Security Disability attorney, my area of expertise is obviously here in Georgia.  I am familiar with some other state’s hearing offices, however, and may consider taking out of state cases (Chattanooga, TN, for example).
