Depending on your unique situation, completing this form may be a lengthy process. The information requested in this form is the same kind of information we would request from you on your initial consultation with our office. Completing this form does not obligate you in any way, nor does it obligate our firm to represent you. This form is simply a tool for helping us evaluate your potential for acquiring disability benefits from the Social Security Administration.
