Last week you began a new job working for Kelly & Associates, LLP, within their Social Security disability division. Your first day on the job found you meeting with Ms. Allison Moody regarding her disability claim. Ms. Moody heard through the local VFW that filing for a disability claim was easy, and she applied for disability benefits online through the Social Security Administration's website the very same day. However, that evening while watching60 Minutes, Ms. Moody saw an advertisement for your firm offering free consultations for anyone denied disability benefits. Although her claim has not yet been denied, Ms. Moody was concerned and made an appointment the following day.
