DISABILITY
ARE YOU SUDDENLY UNABLE TO WORK BECAUSE OF A DISABILITY?
Many people find themselves in this situation due to a sudden life change resulting from a medical condition or injury.
Most applications for Social Security Disability benefits are denied the first time. If you have received a denial, do not get discouraged. Our firm has the experience necessary to help pursue your case through the appeals process. We know how the system works and can help provide the assistance necessary to get an appeal filed.
THERE ARE TWO TYPES OF SOCIAL SECURITY DISABILITY BENEFITS.
We will determine the best plan for you based on your financial background and work history.
SSDI: Social Security Disability income is available to people with a disabling condition, which will prevent them from working for at least twelve months. In order to qualify, you must have a certain amount of work experience. Our lawyers can help you determine whether or not you qualify.
SSI: If you do not have the work history to qualify for SSDI, you could still be approved for Supplemental Security Income. You must have a disability that prevents you from keeping gainful employment, and you must pass a means test as well.
The appeals process is time limited. Therefore, it is important to call as soon as you receive your denial letter. We will walk you through the entire process and make sure we do everything possible to secure benefits.
