Many applicants are denied in the initial phase of the application process. However, if you have an attorney by your side they may ensure that your chances of rejection are minimized.

Therefore, you need to have all the medical records such as the prescription of the doctor, medications, any improvements, and other important details that may turn things in your favor. If you have some other evidence such as notes of friends or relatives or if you were admitted to the hospital owing to your disability they may prove to be helpful as well.
