Hepatitis C

Strong Representation for Hepatitis C Victims

Hepatitis C is a serious condition that impacts millions of Americans. Severe cases of Hepatitis C can result in liver disease and can cause a variety of potentially debilitating symptoms that makes performing everyday tasks and work functions extremely difficult. People who suffer from conditions that prevent them from working are entitled to seek Social Security benefits.

If you are suffering from symptoms of Hepatitis C or liver disease and you are unable to go to work, you should discuss your case with an experienced Social Security lawyer. At the Whitesell Law Offices, we have experience representing clients in all types of claims for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) benefits.

Always Seeking the Best Possible Outcome

Successfully collecting benefits for a condition related to Hepatitis C can be difficult. Simply being diagnosed with Hepatitis C does not necessarily mean that you qualify for Social Security. When the Social Security Administration (SSA) reviews your case, they are looking for limitations in your ability to work. If you have Hepatitis C but have suffered no negative physical impact, the SSA expects that you will work as normal.

In some cases, the side effects of the drugs prescribed to treat Hepatitis C can be enough to keep you out of work. When you hire us, we will help you complete your initial application and include the medical information needed to present the most powerful case possible to support your claim. Our founding attorney, John Whitesell, has over 20 years of experienced in the practice of law. He will pursue every available option in order to obtain the benefits you need.
