✅ Specialization
Choose a firm that focuses specifically on Social Security Disability, not a general practice firm.
✅ Communication
Your attorney should return calls, give updates, and keep you informed at every step. Silence is a red flag.
✅ Contingency Fee
You should NEVER pay upfront. A legitimate disability attorney only gets paid if you win, and SSA caps the fee.
✅ Track Record
Look for real client testimonials and years of experience in SSDI specifically.
✅ Local Knowledge
An attorney familiar with the Carolina ALJs and local SSA offices has a real advantage.
At McChesney & Ours, we've built our entire practice around helping Carolinians win their disability cases for over 40 years.
