Charlotte Observer On Disability Backlogs

The Charlotte Observer has an article on backlogs in adjudicating disability claims at Social Security. The report that about 20% of clients at a homeless shelter are awaiting action on Social Security disability claims is sobering.

The reporter misunderstood something that I said. I did not tell him that five to six of my clients die each year. I told him that something like five to six of my firm's clients die each year. My firm has six lawyers doing Social Security representation full time.
