Disability Advocate Training
 


Introduction to Disability Advocacy



A Disability Advocate, also known as a Disability Consultant, Disability Specialist or Non-attorney Representative, is a specially trained individual who assists others who are applying for Social Security disability benefits.  This service was created by Congress and the Social Security Administration and can be verified via the Federal Code of Regulations. 

To practice as a Disability Advocate, you must have the knowledge necessary to render valuable service to your clients.  The Social Security Administration makes the rules but they do not provide training.  Even if Social Security did offer training, you would still need to be trained in the important business and operational aspects of this service in order to be successful.  Our training program provides both the business and operational knowledge you'll need to maximum your success in this field.


What does an advocate do?

The duties of a Disability Advocate involve the execution of both formal and informal procedures on behalf of an applicant for Social Security disability benefits.  By law, Social Security must consider all evidence presented by the advocate before making a final decision.  If the advocate's argument is properly structured and supported by the evidence, it will greatly enhance the client's chances of winning benefits.


Why an Advocate instead of an Attorney

Our more than two decades of experience have consistently shown that trust is the primary reason why so many applicants choose local disability advocates over attorneys.  Another important reason is case processing time.  Many attorneys can take up to two years or more to process a Social Security disability claim compared to 120 days for the average advocate using our exclusive operational techniques. 


Not a Business Opportunity!

Disability Advocacy is a professional career opportunity!  It is not a franchise, business opportunity or get-rich-quick work-at-home scheme.  This service was created by Congress and the Social Security Administration and does not lend itself to the foolishness and extreme claims associated with business opportunities.  You can easily verify the existence of this service by visiting the Social Security website at www.ssa.gov.  Social Security refers to disability advocates as non-attorney representatives. 


Who do I work for?

The most successful disability advocates are almost always self-employed.  Our training program provides you with the knowledge, tools and support you'll need to practice as an independent disability advocate.


How you practice is key!

To be successful as a disability advocate, you need a comprehensive understanding of Social Security's internal policies and procedures.  As hard as this is, it's still not enough to succeed.  Understanding the disability process is only half the story.  You must also need an understanding of the best business and operational procedures that bring efficiency and profitability to your service. 

Disability Associates is the only training source that can provide you with the operational procedures you'll need to succeed.  The exclusive techniques provided in our course are based on real-time experience in the practice of disability representation.  Our  operational techniques are unique, field tested and validated via our exclusive system of operational accountability.

"Mr. Scott, your company represented and won my disability case a few years ago. I later took your course through my State's Vocational rehab program.  Your course enabled me to earn a respectable income as a disability advocate despite my impairments. You guys are really incredible."

Paul Stephens
Claims representative


Cutting Edge Training

Disability advocacy is a dynamic and quickly evolving field.  What is true today may not be true tomorrow.  To practice successfully you must have up-to-date training and current operational knowledge.  Our course is reviewed and updated every ninety-days to assure that the training you receive is the most current information available.

Rocco Garro "I took your course back in the dark ages of 1992 and have built a very successful practice. So much so, that after graduating law school in 1994 I continued only with disability representation.  Anyway, it's good to see how your organization has grown. It certainly is the best money someone can invest if they're willing to put effort into the business.  All the best and thanks for a great career choice."

Rocco Garro II, JD

How Difficult is this?

If you had to learn this service the old way, it would take you years to comprehend.  We've been able to create a unique training system that makes it easy to understand even the most complex aspects of this service.  Our students commonly finish their training within thirty to sixty days and are ready to begin their practice. 


Do I need a medical background?

Having a medical background would be a great asset for any disability advocate.  Being a medical professional myself, I recognized that not everyone would possess the skills required to review medical evidence.  I addressed this issue by creating an exclusive approach to the evaluation of medical evidence that does not require a medical background or knowledge of medical terminology.  I call this unique trade secret the key-extraction technique.  My exclusive key-extraction approach also enables you to use another of my trade secrets to easily create winning arguments on behalf of those you represent.  I reveal these coveted processes in my exclusive MemoWrite training program. 


Experience Based Training!

There are companies out there offering training in this field that do not actually represent disability claims.  They try to convince you of their expertise by claiming experience or touting a Social Security background.  Over the past two decades, Disability Associates has represented thousands of claims.  We've also addressed virtually every conceivable operational circumstance this business has to offer. 

Our extensive level of field experience is shared with you in every page of our advocate training program.  The course is filled with one-of-a-kind trade focused solutions that are based on sound business insights and proven operational techniques.  Our students win more cases and earn an average of 40% more income as a direct result of our cutting edge training and operational procedures.  All of our techniques were acquired through years of practice in the trenches of disability representation and are not available from any other source.

"Steve, you'll be happy to know that I have won every single claim that I have taken on since I began representation. You must have done something right with your training program and I want to commend you."

Lisa Wagman
Disability Advocate


What are Operational Techniques?

Operational techniques are the procedures used in the day-to-day operation of an advocacy service.  Once you've entered this field, you'll quickly discover that how you practice is far more important to your success than even your knowledge of the SSA disability process. 


Why are Operational Techniques so Important?

They are important for three reasons:  Properly structured operational techniques bring greater efficiency to the disability process allowing you to have a life outside of work.  Secondly, our techniques enable you to improve customer service.  Our approach to customer satisfaction despite case outcome will help assure continued growth of your service.  Most importantly, our techniques enable you to win more cases!  Winning cases is the most important criterion to your bottom-line.  The more cases you win, the more money you make!


Hidden Treasures:

My course also contains an array of tantalizing occupational benefits that are completely unknown to others in this field.  I like to refer to these benefits as hidden treasures.  I use the term hidden because these benefits are not obvious and cannot be successfully quarried without the information provided in my course.  Not even a Social Security employee can provide you with this information because most don't know it exists.  Here's just a few of the benefits you'll derive from my course: 
 
  • Work from home or office.
  • Handle cases by phone, mail or in-person.
  • Work with minimum client or SSA contact.
  • Earn up to $5,300 per case.
  • Earn a life-long income from an expanding market.
  • Profit from my custom alternative fee structures.
  • Enjoy minimal startup costs.
  • Invest less in marketing and advertising.  
  • Free travel for case related issues.
  • No special equipment required.
  • Control your own work schedule.
  • No franchise or fee sharing schemes.
  • Accept as few or as many cases as you wish.
  • Work anywhere in the US or its protectorates.
     

Independences is the Key!

Even in the best of economic times, most of us would prefer to be successfully self-employed.  The greatest obstacle to self-employment is finding the right business that can consistently perform as a viable alternative to a job.  Disability advocacy enables anyone with the right training, to practice and profit from the comfort of home.  You don't need a special license or anyone's permission to operate your service.  All you need is a genuine desire to create your own independent source of income and the knowledge to do it right! 

"I'm a happy product of your "Disability Advocacy" course having taken it last year.  Now I have a very successful business with almost too many clients to handle.   Thank you for the wonderful course!" 

L. Ziegenfuss-Keller
Disability Case Manager


How much Money will I Make?

Unlike other business services, the amount earned by an advocate is determined by the Social Security applicant's work and income history.  Social Security allows an advocate to earn up to $5,300 for each successful case.  Our average after 21 years is approximately $2000 per case.  You can expect to receive the maximum fee in about 10-15% of the cases you represent.  Although we cannot promise that you'll earn any particular level of income, we can promise that the information we provide will afford you the best possible chance for financial success.


Additional Income Streams

Growing a business takes time and disability advocacy is no different.  To help our students weather this business development period, we provide you with three related services that are unique to our program. These services are easy to implement and enable you to earn income while building your practice.  We call these services our Fast-track income techniques.  To perform these services requires access to our powerful Office Suite professional software.
 

Understanding the Need

To understand the potential of disability advocacy, it's important to understand why there is such a high demand for this skill.  In my many years of Social Security experience, you cannot imagine the frustration and anger expressed to me by folks who worked all of their lives only to be told that they do not qualify for Social Security disability benefits. 

Social Security disability is not a welfare program!  It's an insurance policy paid for by working people and was intended to act as a financial buffer in case of serious illness or injury.  However, many people are denied these benefits because of ignorance of the system or an inability to find effective representation. 

It's not enough for a person to just apply for benefits.  The applicant must win his benefits by meeting a complex array of internal policies based on little-known Social Security criteria.  Up to eighty percent of applicants are denied benefits on first application.  Of those denied, most simply give up, feeling that there is nothing they can do when faced with such a powerful bureaucracy.

Disability Associates is changing this unpleasant reality via the training of disability advocates on a nationwide scale.  My course delivers quality training, personalized support and the most powerful business software in the industry.  Most importantly, you'll receive a wealth of unique operational techniques that are completely unknown to other so-called trainers in this field.  The financial advantages you'll gain from your training will place your firm head-and-shoulders above any competitor. 

" I purchased your course in 1999.  Thanks to you, I've been able to construct an extremely profitable service.  In fact, just today the Social Security office referred 25 new cases to my firm.  My business has grown so fast that it's hard to keep up.  We have also begun expanding into several other States.  I have your training and software to thank for my success.  Thanks again, Gabe."

Steven Paquette

A Pre-existing Infrastructure

One of the most reassuring aspects of disability advocacy is its pre-existing infrastructure.  This infrastructure was created by Social Security and is the reason why this service exists.  Because the infrastructure already exists, you do not have to reinvent the wheel to enjoy the full financial benefits of this unique service. 

 
Practice from Home or Office

With outrageous fuel prices and a weakening economy, working from home has gone from being a dream to becoming a powerful tool of financial survival.  Disability advocacy is the ideal occupation for those who wish to work from home or add a professional service to an existing enterprise.  My program assumes that you'll work from home and provides a host of operational techniques designed to protect your privacy and security.  Regardless of where or how you practice, my course provides a level of flexibility that can meet your occupational demands.


Expanding Market!

The disability market is enormous and is located in every city in America, regardless of size.  This year alone, millions of new individuals will apply for Social Security disability benefits.  Social Security estimates that the number of new applicants is growing by at least seven percent a year, creating an ever expanding pool of potential customers for your service.

"Scott has his marketing eye on the aging baby-boomer population, but even Social Security Administrator Kenneth Apfel has acknowledged the continually growing market for the expert skills Scott provides within his unique training program.  If the above numbers represent only 20 percent of those who apply within a given age group, they suggest that Mr. Scott and his team of highly skilled specialists have hooked into an industry that offers huge opportunity.  In short, Scott's disability advocate program is an entrepreneur's dream”  See archived articles.

Disability Associates is the only training source that can provide you with complete market training based on real-life experience in this industry.  Unlike our competition, we do not copy our marketing techniques from generic entrepreneurial sources or glean techniques from other trainers.  Regardless of how many other advocates and/or attorneys offer this service in your area, our marketing techniques will still enable you to consistently attract as many qualified customers as you desire. 

"I never expected to receive such a high level of after purchase support from your firm. My mentor even helped me to create a brochure and radio ad for my service.  Your program is fantastic and I plan to renew my Executive membership.  Thank you for everything!"

Brenda Lawson 
Medical Disability Advocate

"My reason for sharing this is to acknowledge the excellent training provided by your course.  I availed myself of your Executive package and found it worth every cent of the investment.  Your support web sites proved more than valuable in my ability to access critical information at the time it was needed.  Thank you!  I hope on some occasion, I will have the opportunity to shake your hand."

James D. Jones
