Under the Social Security Disability Insurance program (SSD or SSDI), workers who have worked long enough and earned enough wages can be entitled to disability payments if they have a severe physical or mental health condition that is expected to last for 12 months or more or result in death. For SSDI benefits to be approved, your condition must prevent you from being employed in any gainful employment, not just your regular job.
To establish your eligibility for benefits, proof may be necessary from doctors, vocational experts or psychologists, and our lawyers can help you gather the necessary proof and documents to present your case. They will use their experience and skills to prepare you case and ensure that it moves through the social security system as quickly as possible.
A claim for social security disability benefits may have to go through numerous steps before you receive an award of benefits.
If your SSDI claim is initially denied, our skilled lawyers will assist you through the appeals process and appear at the ALJ hearing to present relevant testimony of witnesses, including your testimony, and ensure that the necessary medical and vocational evidence is introduced. To be successful in your claim for social security disability benefits, you must be able to present medical proof and sufficient documentation to establish that you are entitled to benefits. Because of the complex rules and regulations applied to the process, you can benefit from having trained and experienced attorneys representing you at the ALJ hearing to ensure that all of the necessary and relevant evidence is presented and properly introduced.
If you are receiving workers’ compensation benefits or long-term disability benefits, you can still file for social security benefits, and some long-term disability policies require you to file a social security disability claim. Our lawyers can help you determine your rights and your responsibilities regarding each type of claim and can represent you in your claims for all benefits.

You pay no attorney fees unless you are awarded disability benefits, but case expenses and court costs will be the client’s responsibility.
