Do you qualify?
Social Security Disability Insurance Benefits (SSDI)
If your disability prevents you from returning to work, you may qualify for Social Security Disability Insurance benefits. Also known as SSDI, this government program provides income to disabled people with qualifying work histories. Although SSDI is an entitlement that disabled workers like you have earned by working and paying FICA taxes over the years, the majority of claimants are denied benefits at the initial application stage, the reconsideration stage and the ALJ hearing stage. With an attorney or advocate on your side, however, your chances of approval improve significantly.

Children’s Disability Benefits
Disabled children and the children of disabled workers may also be eligible for disability benefits through the Social Security Administration. SSI may be available to disabled children whose families have low income and limited financial resources. Additionally, children who have a parent who is receiving SSDI or who qualified for SSDI before death may be entitled to dependent benefits whether the child is disabled or not. If you are a parent, guardian, or representative of a child whom you believe may be eligible for disability benefits, reach out to our team. We can help you obtain SSI or SSDI on behalf of your child.

Supplemental Security Income Benefits (SSI)
Supplemental Security Income provides financial assistance to disabled people with a demonstrated financial need who are unable to perform substantial gainful activity (SGA). If your disabling condition meets the Social Security Administration’s guidelines and you do not have the financial resources to provide for your basic needs, you may qualify for SSI. If you have worked over the past ten years, you may be able to qualify for both SSI and SSDI.

SSDI for Veterans
Disabled veterans may be eligible for Social Security Disability Insurance benefits in addition to the benefits they receive through the Veteran’s Administration. If you receive disabled veteran benefits and SSDI at the same time, the benefit amounts from these programs do not affect each other. Qualifying for disability benefits through the VA, however, does not automatically qualify you for SSDI. These programs have different qualification criteria. To find out more about obtaining SSDI when you’re a disabled veteran, contact our team.

Appeals
Since only about 30% of claims are approved at the initial application stage, most people who apply for SSDI or SSI will need to appeal adverse decisions. Whether you’re appealing a denial at the reconsideration level, through a hearing with an administrative law judge, through a review by the Appeals Council, or at the federal level, our attorneys and advocates can help.
