Disability Lawyers in Winston-Salem, NC
Applying for Social Security disability benefits can be challenging with lots of information and uncertainty to face during the process. Most initial applications for SSDI or SSI are denied, and when unfamiliar with the claims process, it can feel impossible to know what information to include and what information may hurt your claim. Filing an appeal after a denial is even more stressful, and many people simply give up just because they don’t understand how to best proceed.
The Winston-Salem disability lawyers at Collins Price are here to help. We have been practicing disability law for decades and have thousands of reviews from satisfied clients. We know what information to include in the application and what evidence to attach. We have extensive experience with filing appeals as well and we fight by our client’s side every step of the way, shouldering the bulk of the work for them. Our experienced, local case management team has been with us from the very beginning and our founding attorneys still personally handle every claim, ensuring your claim is in the best possible hands.

What Our Winston-Salem Disability Lawyers Actually Do
Our experienced attorneys understand how difficult it can be to live with a disability. This is why we are dedicated to advocating and fighting on your behalf to get the support you need. You focus on your health. We focus on building and presenting the claim.
Clients often come to us overwhelmed by paperwork, deadlines, and medical evidence. Here’s how we help:
- Build the medical record: identify what’s missing and help request key records
- Translate symptoms into limitations Social Security recognizes (work + daily functioning)
- Prepare forms and submissions so answers are consistent and complete
- Manage deadlines and communication with the SSA so you’re not chasing updates
- Prepare you for a hearing (questions you may be asked and how to answer clearly)
What Social Security Usually Needs to See in a Strong Disability Claim
Many denials happen because the file doesn’t clearly show functional limits, not because the person isn’t actually struggling.
Helpful evidence often includes:
- consistent treatment history and diagnostic testing (when applicable)
- detailed provider notes that connect symptoms to work limitations
- medication side effects and how they impact attention, stamina, or safety
- statements that reflect real daily functioning (not “best day” language)
- a clear explanation of why working full-time isn’t realistic right now
If something is missing, we’ll tell you—then help you close the gaps before deadlines hit.We are passionate about providing legal support to those suffering from physical and mental impairments of all kinds. If clients don’t live nearby or are unable to come to our office, that’s no problem. We can handle Social Security disability claims online or over the phone.

The practical takeaway: if you’re headed to a disability hearing, preparation matters—your testimony, your medical evidence, and how your limitations are explained. We’ll walk you through what to expect and help you feel ready.
