Back and Spine Injuries

At Deseret Disability Law, we have developed special practice methods for individuals who are disabled as a result of a back or spine medical condition. We have successfully represented thousands of individuals using these special methods. We have found that the severe pain and limitations from a serious back or spine condition can make it virtually impossible for many of our clients to sit or stand for extended periods. Sitting or standing for extended periods of time are required in all jobs. Many individuals who suffer from a serious back or spine condition have to lie down throughout the day. The side effects of medication, and just the pain itself, can have a significant impact on one’s ability to remember and maintain attention and concentration needed to perform even simple work tasks. We have been successful in demonstrating to Social Security how our clients with serious back or spine conditions can cause the inability to get or keep a job as a result of these problems in sitting, standing, need to lie down, problems with attention and concentration or any number of specific and unique limitations to an individual that create significant difficulties in their ability to work.

Whatever serious back or spine condition you may suffer from, contact us for a consultation with an attorney. If you feel you are unable to work because of your condition, we will evaluate your case and supporting medical documentation, and put together a strategy, personalized to you and your condition. In the past we have found that such a personalized approach has been very successful in getting our clients’ disability claims with Social Security approved.
