in my experiences with SSI and later SSD, i found the best help came from my doctors. if they feel your condition is worthy of SSI they will support you in your appeal process. of course if you feel you need an attorney, you might try legal aid, charge on a sliding scale, and see if that helps. but since 2 attorneys have looked at your case and came up with the same conclusion i'd return to my doctors for them to be more specific of why you need ssi. hope this may help and good luck to you.
