We welcome the opportunity to assist you in obtaining your Supplemental Security Insurance (SSI) and Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) benefits and to address questions and issues such as:

  • Why consult with an SSDI and SSI attorney? We understand the rules and regulations governing SSDI and SSI benefits eligibility, applications, appeals and benefit awards. We understand the requirements for identifying and documenting impairments. As Cook and Will County lawyers we know what medical information to request from your providers.
  • Why was my SSDI and SSI claim denied? If you were denied because of issues related to your medical evidence, Sokol & Mazian will help you appeal your claim and obtain the correct or new medical evidence that will be needed to reverse the denial.
  • Social Security Disability administrative hearing: We will rebut the negative evidence in your Social Security file and prepare and question the witnesses in an administrative law judge hearing.
  • Types of disabilities: A variety of physical or mental disabilities may qualify someone for Social Security Disability benefits, including: diabetes, fibromyalgia and arthritis, back problems, cardiac problems (for example congestive heart failure), anxiety-related disorders, mental illness, cancer, autistic disorders, auto-immune disorders, lupus, irritable bowel syndrome, cirrhosis of the liver, Crohn's, multiple sclerosis, obesity, pancreatitis, pulmonary distress, renal disease, seizures, spinal disorders, thyroid disorder, vision defects and dysfunction of the joints.

Our attorneys also assist clients in a variety of other practice areas, including:

Corporate and business law: We counsel and represent clients in all legal matters involving a business operation, from its creation (articles of incorporation, stock transactions, partnership agreements, buy-out agreements) to daily operational legal problems (contracts, employment agreements, lawsuits).

Real estate transactions: We handle commercial and residential real estate leases, sales and purchases of residential and commercial properties; facilitating for example, communication with city departments, compliance with city ordinances, review of environmental audits, title reports and survey, and home inspections.

Estate planning: Every adult, regardless of age or income level, should have estate planning documents drafted to satisfy his or her unique needs and situations. This includes wills, revocable trusts and guardianships for disabled adults and minors.

Wills, trusts and powers of attorney: We prepare wills and revocable trusts to allow for the orderly distribution of assets to heirs and legatees. We prepare Powers of attorney for property and health care which will simplify the handling of financial matters in the event of incapacitation or disability.

Probate proceedings: We represent and assist the family members, heirs and legatees regarding representation in probate matters in Cook and Will counties, Illinois. Probate is a court-supervised administration to ensure that an estate is distributed properly and as intended by the decedent. As experienced probate lawyers, we will reduce the time and aggravation characteristic of these proceedings.

Personal injury: We represent and assist you when you, a friend, or family member have been injured due to someone else's negligence in a car or truck accident, and you deserve compensation as a result.
