Helping Austin SSD Claimants With Dire Need Claims
If you are in need of Social Security Disability benefits, it may take months to get a decision from the Social Security Administration (SSA). However, if you are in an emergency situation — facing eviction, foreclosure or a medical crisis, for instance — you may be able to fast track the process by filing a dire need claim.
At the law firm of Coats & Todd, our attorneys have extensive experience handling dire need claims and other SSD issues. Whether you are being treated at Austin State Hospital, St. David's Hospital, Heart Hospital of Austin or another area hospital, we can provide you with knowledgeable counsel on working with your doctor and other important SSD topics.

Fast Track Disability Claims in Austin, Texas
If you are in dire need of SSD benefits, you may need to file a dire need claim at any stage of the process.
- If you have not yet filed your initial claim, we can help you file your claim and the emergency request.
- If your initial claim was denied, we can help you seek an expedited reconsideration.
- If your request for consideration was denied, we can help you request an expedited hearing before an administrative law judge (ALJ).
In order to approve your dire need claim, the SSA must see compelling evidence. In drafting a dire need letter, it is important to include relevant details about how your disability is causing you severe financial hardship. You may, for instance, provide written proof of eviction, foreclosure or denied medical treatment.
Our SSD attorneys can help you with all aspects of your dire need claim, including drafting a compelling and detailed letter to the SSA. We have more than 40 years of experience helping clients from Austin, throughout Texas and nationwide with a wide range of SSD and SSI issues.
