 Social Security Disability Representation April 9, 2008
This book is well designed. I used it to train people in representing individuals before the Security Administration who work for me. It provides a detailed analysis of the process and is wonderfully informative. However, a person who does Social Security Representation professionally will still be needed to add things that the book does not go into enough detail explaining or explain things that are exceptions to what the book says. However, if you want to know the disability process with social security then this book will explain it.

Having represented many people in their appeal process for disability benefits for the past 13 years, I have found that understanding the Administration's maze of regulations is full time effort. After a careful review of this book, it is my opinion that it will provide invaluable information for a newcomer to Social Security Representation as well as others with more experience. Wolf and Prozcek did a very good job and find myself referring to this book several times each week,to make certain that I did not leave "a stone un-turned'. It is my understanding that Wolfe is an Administrative Law Judge(ALJ) and Mrs. Proszek was a senior staff attorney with the Office of Hearings and Appeals-SSA, which adds to the credibility of this book. They write the decisions. Therefore, they covered in the book exactly what they would expect of a representative to provide for there client during the appeal process and at a hearing. It is a prudent practice to fully develop your case before you step in the hearing room, follow the steps in the book and you will make a better impression on the ALJ and provide your best effort for your client. I wish that I had a copy of this book 13 years ago!
