Disability Blog Roundup – 10/9

By Gordon Gates on October 9, 2009

There was terrific interaction this week among the Social Security disability blogs. There was a guest post (all too rare in our niche). And there was a post expanding upon an article from another blog. That's the way it's supposed to be! Such cross-pollination makes our work more accessible to those looking for information regarding Social Security disability law.

Here are this week's most notable posts from the Social Security disability blogs:

Winning Social Security Disability Benefits After Age 50 from the Personal Injury Social Security Disability blog published by Bob Kraft
The WRONG Answers to the Question: "Why Can't You Work" from the Social Security Disability Blog moderated by Jonathan Ginsberg
Why Should I Pay a Disability Lawyer if I can Handle the Case Myself from My Disability Blog published by Tim Moore
Subpoena The SSA Doctor from the Law Offices of Jeffrey Delott blog published by Jeffrey Delott
10 Things to Know Before Applying for Social Security Disability from the Delaware Disability Law blog published by Steven Butler
