I filed for social security disability and was denied, but there was only 1 reason why I was denied, because I can still do the same work I did in my past job. Then I hired a social security disability law firm.
My claim was denied again. The explanation of determination mentions my Aspergers and ADHD (something I disclosed to my attorneys that I no longer have but now have autistic, anxiety, and personality disorders). It says the medical record shows I am able to communicate, act in my own interests, adjust to orindary emotional stresses, get along with others, and do my usual daily activities without assistance. The medical record also shows that I am capable of performing other work that might only require a very short, on-the-job training period.
Based on the fact it went from 1 reason I was denied to MANY reasons I was denied, do you think my law firm committed legal malpractice?

sooooo you *had* Aspergers and ADHD...but magically got rid of them, and instead became Autistic, have anxiety, and "personality disorders?"
I dont think it works that way.
Me thinks someone is trying to screw over the system and they are seeing through it.
Oh, and no, it is not legal malpractice.

No. Actually the fact you were denied for more reasons shows your Attorney was trying to build a case based on multiple disabilities, rather than just one.

You your self said you can do the work you did in the past so why not work.As a nurse I know for a fact that someone with Aspergers and ADHD hold down full time jobs everyday.And since you seem to be able to form a sentence fairly well you are not that bad off.Get a job not a handout.We have two Down syndrome people working at our local fast food .Now I dont know you but what you are saying just doesnt add up.Sorry

Where are the medical records from your doctor that proves you no longer have the old issues and now have these new issues? You say that you disclosed this to your attorney. You can say anything to them, but without medical records to back it up, it means nothing. I serious doubt that you are unable to work. Your lawyer only gets paid if you do. You win they win, you lose they lose.
