Proving A Physical Impairment
It should not be so hard to prove that you are physically impaired. You cannot work; everyone around you can see that, but Social Security Disability requires you to prove it — according to their strict standards.
The Berkley Law Firm has had people who have come in to our offices who are unable to sit or stand for more than ten minutes at a time without being in terrible pain who have been denied. The Social Security Disability applications process is not a reasonable process. It is, however, a process that our law firm has been performing for clients in Orange, Los Angeles, Riverside, San Bernardino, and San Diego County and throughout Southern California for more than 30 years.

What the Government Looks for in a Physical Impairment
You must show that your physical condition will not allow you to work for at least one straight year or that it is expected to prevent you from working for a year.

Almost one-third of 20-year-olds will be disabled before turning 67, according to the Social Security Administration.
Physical impairment claims include:
- Spinal impairments such as back, neck, leg and hand impairments
- Chronic impairments such as heart disease, cancer, diabetes, multiple sclerosis (MS), Parkinson's disease
- Degenerative disc disease
- Shoulder injuries
- Arthritis or osteoarthritis
- Auto Immune disorders including HIV/AIDS and Lupus
- Repetitive stress disorder, including carpal tunnel syndrome from repetitive motion
- Knee and hip replacements
We also handle mental impairment claims including depression, affective disorders, bi-polar and more.
We also help clients obtain benefits when they are over 50 and disabled as there is a presumption that you cannot transfer into another type of work and therefore may be found disabled if you cannot do your present work.
