Why Having a Local, Schaumburg Disability Lawyer Matters
Many national firms that advertise as advocates helping with disability benefits only show up on the day of your hearing with a disability judge, and the representative might not even be a lawyer.
That’s not how we do things at Nash.
When you work with our Schaumburg Social Security Disability lawyers, we:
- Speak with you ahead of time to truly understand your case
- Help you prepare so you walk into your hearing with confidence
- Bring knowledge of our local communities that can make a difference
We know the Social Security Disability system in Schaumburg and throughout Illinois. We’re familiar with:
- Local clinics, doctors, and hospitals where you get your medical evidence
- Local Social Security field offices and hearing offices
- Local Social Security administrative law judges
- Local job and medical experts the Social Security Administration (SSA) may call to testify about your case
The disability lawyers at Nash have been doing this so long, and we handle disability claims so much that we’re one of the top law firms in Illinois for the amount of benefits we secure for our clients.
Let us help you. In a system that makes you jump multiple hurdles, denies most people, and makes you fight for benefits on appeal, the right guidance can make a big difference.

When You Need a Hearing to Get Social Security Disability in Schaumburg
If your initial claim is denied and your case goes to a disability hearing, it might go to the Oak Brook hearing office, which serves Schaumburg and other areas in the northwest Chicago suburbs.
Your hearing with a local disability judge (where you want a local disability lawyer) is important because you get a chance to personally explain the way medical conditions have changed your life—and also because your odds of winning benefits are higher at your hearing than earlier in the process.
Your hearing is also a moment you spend a long time anticipating. The initial and reconsideration appeal times in Illinois, combined with the wait for a hearing, can easily be 18 months or more. After your hearing, it can take another two to three months to receive a decision.
That’s a long time to live with uncertainty. Having a Schaumburg disability attorney who knows the local landscape is essential, both to help you through this and to help make it worth it by winning benefits in the end.
Government studies have shown that people who bring representation to their hearings are nearly three times more likely to win Social Security Disability benefits.
With Nash Disability Law, you pay no attorney fee until we win your case.
We’re here for you in Schaumburg to get more stability in your life when health problems interfere.
