When a Medical Condition Keeps You From Working
It can be hard to know when you should contact a disability lawyer. You may wonder whether your condition is serious enough, whether you have been out of work long enough, or if too much time has already passed.
Back pain, spinal issues, joint aches, breathing issues, heart conditions, chronic pain, injury-related conditions, and other medical conditions can affect what you are able to do at work and in daily life. Roose Ressler & Green helps individuals understand how their work history, medical records, treatment, current limitations, and time away from work may fit into the Social Security Disability requirements for benefits.
You may want to contact Roose Ressler & Green if:
- You are not working because of a medical condition that has lasted, or is expected to last, at least 12 months and limits your ability to work
- You have been out of work for several months or longer and are not sure if you can still apply
- You are thinking about applying for Social Security Disability, or you need help understanding what Social Security may require
- Your Social Security Disability Insurance or Supplemental Security Income claim was denied, and you want to understand your appeal options

Applying for Social Security Disability
Roose Ressler & Green helps clients understand the application process and what information Social Security may need. Before the application is submitted, our team reviews your forms, responses, and medical evidence. The goal is to make sure your claim is clear, complete, and accurately reflects your medical conditions, work history, and limitations.
Denied Disability Claims
A denial is common, but does not always mean the process is over. Roose Ressler & Green will review your denial, explain where you are in the process, and help you understand what to do next.
Appeals and Reconsideration
After a denial, Roose Ressler & Green helps clients review the decision, prepare for reconsideration, gather new evidence, and understand what may happen next if the case continues through the appeal process.
Hearings and Federal Court Appeals
When an appeal continues beyond reconsideration, Roose Ressler & Green helps clients prepare for the disability hearing, review evidence, and answer their questions before appearing before Social Security. If a case needs to move beyond the hearing stage, our team can continue to guide clients through the next levels of appeal, including Federal Court.
Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI)
Roose Ressler & Green helps clients understand the difference between SSDI and SSI. The right program may depend on work history, income, resources, and medical limitations.

Wooster Social Security Disability FAQs
Do I need a Social Security Disability lawyer before I apply?
You do not have to hire a disability lawyer before applying, but legal guidance can help if you are unsure what information Social Security needs or if your medical condition has already forced you to stop working. Roose Ressler & Green can review your situation and explain whether legal help may strengthen your chances of winning.
Does Roose Ressler & Green help with Social Security Disability benefits for children?
Yes. Roose Ressler & Green helps families understand disability benefits for children, including Supplemental Security Income for individuals under 18. These cases often involve medical records, school information, treatment history, daily limitations, and family income or resources. If your child’s claim was denied, or you are not sure what Social Security needs, our team can help you understand the next step.

Do I need to have stopped working before applying for Social Security Disability benefits?
Not always. If your work is part-time and under the earnings limit that Social Security considers to be substantial and gainful, you can apply.

Roose Ressler & Green can help you understand how your situation may fit into the disability process.
