Why Get a Chicago Disability Lawyer?

We personally think Chicago is the best city. Even though it’s a big place, you’ll always be more than a number to our disability lawyers.

You can find national or out-of-state firms offering to help you with disability benefits. But at a tough time in your life, they may not provide the kind of caring, personal help that you get from a neighbor like Nash.

We have the values, experience and local knowledge to help you build a convincing case for Social Security Disability benefits.

Our firm is familiar with:

• Chicago doctors and hospitals that provide medical evidence for disability claims
• Local jobs, what they demand, and how health problems interfere
• Local people and neighborhoods and what you need for a more secure life here
• Local Social Security field offices
• Local administrative law judges who preside over disability hearings

While Social Security Disability is a national program with the same rules everywhere, local hearing offices differ in how they handle cases and how many people they approve.

When you go to a hearing with a disability judge in Chicago, it may be your best chance of winning benefits, so work with a lawyer who knows the territory.

• As of 2025, administrative law judges in the Chicago hearing office were approving benefits 57 percent of the time.
• The judges in the Evanston office, who cover neighborhoods on the North Side and Northwest Side of Chicago, approved benefits 56 percent of the time.
• The Illinois state approval rate was 45 percent.
• Nationwide, the hearing approval rate was 49 percent.

Many people get turned down when they apply for Social Security Disability, but you can get more support for a better result.

The Nash Chicago disability attorneys will help you with your application or appeal and help you get the best possible chance of winning the benefits that you deserve.

No matter how much work or time your disability claim requires, you don’t pay a fee for a disability lawyer until you win benefits.

Life can be great in Chicago. But when your health is bad, you can’t work, and you’re worried about how you’ll support yourself, everything is harder.

Let us help you reach better times.
