Social Security Disability
What Makes A Person Disabled For Social Security Purposes?
A person is considered disabled if he has a physical, emotional, or combination of conditions that render him unable to work, considering his age, education and past work history. The condition must have existed for one year or be expected to last one year, or to result in death.
What Are The Requirements For Social Security Disability?
You must not be working, and have a disability that is expected to last or has lasted 12 months. You also must have sufficient earnings (work) history.
You May Be Entitled To Retroactive Benefits.
You may get retroactive social security disability benefits going back prior to your application. There are no retroactive benefits for supplemental security income prior to the application.
What Are The Fees?
Our fee is usually 25% of the retroactive benefits or $6,000, whichever is less. We only get paid if we are successful.
What Are The Requirements For Supplemental Security Income?
You must be disabled and “impoverished” or you must be over 65 and “impoverished.”
What Does My Attorney Do For An Appeal?
Your attorney can make sure that the appeal is properly filed after social security denies your application. Generally, you have 65 days from the date of a denial letter to file an appeal. Your attorney will also request medical records to support your claim. Finally, your attorney will represent you at the hearing with the administrative law judge.
