About Social Security Disability
Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) are federal programs. They provide monthly income and other benefits if your physical or mental condition prevents you from sustaining full-time work. Spouses, dependent children and widows/widowers of a disability recipient may also qualify for benefits.
Because of the long process and backlogged system, you should apply as soon as you think that you will be out of the work force for at least a year. Our knowledgeable attorneys can explain the process and answer all your questions:
- What are SSDI and SSI?
- Definition of disability and listed impairments
- Eligibility and benefits under SSDI/SSI
- Ways to qualify for disability benefits
Securing your disability benefits
Very few people are approved for benefits on the first try. Working with an experienced Social Security Disability attorney gives you an advantage at every step, especially at the hearing level or appeals of adverse rulings.
We have helped clients with a wide range of impairments win their benefits. Some law firms do not want to talk to you until your claim has been rejected. We welcome you at any stage of this daunting process:
- Initial applications for SSDI or SSI
- Reconsideration of claims
- Appeals of denied claims (hearings, Appeals Council, court appeals)
