Bill -

There is absolutely nothing to be ashamed about for getting a lawyer. There are

very few human beings who can understand the legaleese and bureaucratic b.s.

that the process intentionally throws up in order to intimidate and discourage

people from even investigating whether they qualify for SS disability (the

acronym SS is never lost on me and its Nazi association) let alone pursuing it.

Those of us who are sleep deprived have even more reason to seek help since we

don't, for obvious reasons, think clearly. I long ago gave up apologizing for

my limitations or even feeling sorry for myself as it gets me nowhere. I'm

sorry your journey has been so frustrating and unproductive yet, it's people

like you who are such a great treasure for people like me who are just starting

down this path. Your experiences and knowledge are so incredibly helpful; I

know I need a lawyer and thanks to you, I now know I should think twice about

hiring Binder & Binder or

avoid them altogether! It may be small comfort to you, but you are a blessing

to me and I am so grateful you, and folks like you, are here. I know there are

times when words are empty and meaningless. All I can say is thank you and hang

in there. I will be praying that your help and the fact that you care enough to

share your troubles, thus warning us of the many pitfalls and hazards out there

we need to avoid or be aware of, will be rewarded.

Blessings upon you Bill!

Bill, I know you are in pain but you do have recourse. The legal community

polices itself. I can't think of the name of the bar association dep't that does

that. Will have to ask son. But you should keep records and all papers

relating to this situation and then go after binder & binder. With both guns

blazing. Feeling sorry for ourselves accomplishes nothing and actually pushes

us backwards. But anger, that's a great motivator. Good luck and fight back.

Never let the assholes win. You can also file a complaint with the better

business bureau. And you can do that on line. Best, marsha

I just got off the phone with Binder. I told them they were fired and the

reason. Non responsive, no return phone calls and 1st denial because they didn't

respond to SS Storm Troopers in time. They said I needed to send a letter

explaining whay, I also told them I was reporting them to the state of Iowas Bar

and hung up. Oddly enough 5 min latter my phone rings, it's Binder wanting to

appologise! For what maybe helping me lose my house and be homeless! I hung up

on them. Now looking for a local lawyer that I can go the their office.

Up since 4 AM getting to my limit.

Muscatine county Iowa. I sent in release forms to my Senators yesterday. I need

to take in my birth cert and drivers license and FDHS said they will approve me

for low or no cost health ins through the University in Iowa City. Maybe I can

get my shoulder surg that is torturing me. Along with my spine issues. I was

really sure I would be approved this time SS that is, since I have had sooo much

documented trouble for over 5 yrs. Boy was I wrong! Gotta go can't sit anymore

(

Thanks so much Bill

I just ran through a list of responsible state offices here in

Louisiana . Your state Attorney General Office seems to be a good

place to start according to the research I have been doing about this

matter this morning as well as your State Bar association.

Generally speaking it never hurts to involve you State,local and

congresmen.

I am levid about this situation your going through, and the really

scary thing about this matter is there are so many people facing this

same situation.

Have you joined the group named Disinissues ? This group deals

with cases of disabilities and SSID matters. offers a number

of groups dealing with matters like this. If you have trouble

locating this group just let me know and I can help you in this arena

also.

If I understand you correctly you live in the state of Iowa is this

correct? Also what county do you reside in? If you can confirm this

for me I would be honored to do some additional research for you to

verify the rue's you can follow.

I belong to the disinissues group and not only has the group been great they

have a truckload of information about the whole process. Bill you would do well

to check them out. I thought I posted about them before. Maybe not but check

them out. You'll be glad you did and present your situation to the group.

They'll tell you exactly what to do. It's a fantastic resource.

Go to group disinissues. Great resource for disability insurance

problems, especially Social Security. That's where I get all my info. Thought

I posted about them before here. They have tons of info and the group is really

knowledgeable and helpful. Fantastic resource!

P.S. Glad you fired the jerks!
