Disability Retirement

The federal government allows employees who are unable to work to retire under a disability retirement. It is in the best interest of both employees and the federal government for employees to remain gainfully employed in their current grade or pay level, as long as they can provide useful and efficient service without endangering themselves, others or government property.
Disability retirement should be the very last option and should be used only when attempts have been made to preserve an individual's employment, and those attempts have failed.

You'll need to find a different attorney for SSDI. It's probably better that way, as that attorney should also be local to you - they know the quirks of the ALJ's in the area who, more than likely, will be approving your application after the (almost inevitable) initial denials. You might be lucky to find an attorney who can do both OPM and SSDI adequately. I looked for several weeks, but never found that combo, however. Good luck!
