More details to this question:
I’ve been working on getting SSI disability for 2 years on my own. I recently involved a lawyer. I also have a hearing date July 16. I have paperwork to give my lawyer, but I couldn't make it to her office Friday, I have to go Monday. She called very irritated and said if she didn't get it ASAP, she would cancel my hearing date. Can she do that? I’ve put in all the papers for this.
