National Social Security Disability Resources

Social Security Disability Resources on the Web

There are several reliable national websites for Social Security Disability information:

• Social Security Administration Disability Page: The official SSA site provides detailed information on basic rules. However, it focuses on what should happen, not always what does happen.
• National Organization of Social Security Claimant’s Representatives (NOSSCR): Offers a useful FAQ section, answered by Charles Hall, a renowned Social Security lawyer from Raleigh.
• Severe Net: Managed by David Bryant, a Chicago Social Security attorney, this site provides helpful resources.

Disability Law Research

Our goal is to develop this site into a valuable resource for legal research. Attorneys can ask questions here, and I'll post answers or point in the right direction. Over time, it can evolve into a practical research hub for common issues. Attorneys can contribute answers as well.

Here are additional top research resources:

• Eric Schnaufer's Website: Run by a highly respected Social Security lawyer, this site provides valuable legal insights.
• Traver Law: David Traver, a Social Security lawyer with a background as a vocational expert, offers a unique perspective on vocational issues.
• NOSSCR Website: A comprehensive resource for Social Security research, especially for representatives and claimants.
• Social Security Advisory Service: Peter Young’s website is an excellent resource for obscure Social Security questions.
• The Omnibudsman: Charles Martin’s site features a practice management system for lawyers handling multiple cases.
• Social Security Administration Official Site: A vast resource of information directly from the SSA, though it reflects the Administration's viewpoint on legal matters.

• DisabilityResources.org: A comprehensive directory of disability websites by state.
