 | Social Security Disability
Many people put social security in to the same class as welfare, but it's not. Social Security Disability is an insurance program that everyone who works puts money into. It's your money!Under the federal Social Security Disability Act, "disability" means the "inability to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physician or mental impairment which can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months or result in death."
If you suffer from an injury or a medical condition that will prevent you from earning income from work for more than a year, you may qualify for Social Security Disability (SSD) benefits. Whether your injury occurred at work or not, we can help you secure Social Security Disability (SSD) benefits. We can even help if you have been previously turned down. A large percentage of cases are turned down when you first apply by yourself to the social Security Administration for benefits. A denial at this stage of the game is not the end of the world. If you file and receive a denial letter, contact our office immediately as you only 60 days to appeal. We are experts at getting you the money you are owed! We don't need any money down to get your Social Security Disability Appeal up and running as we do it on a contingent basis. We don't get paid unless we get money for you! See why we have to work hard for you? Social Security Disability (SSD) - In order to be eligible for a Social Security benefit, the worker must earn sufficient credits based on taxable work.
- Disability benefits are payable to disabled workers, disabled widow(er)'s or adults disabled since childhood, who are otherwise eligible.
- Auxiliary benefits may be payable to a worker's dependents, as well.
- The monthly disability benefit payment is based on the Social Security earnings record of the insured worker on whose Social Security number the disability claim is filed.
Supplemental Security Income (SSI)
- SSI disability benefits are payable to adults or children who are disabled or blind, who have limited income and resources, who meet the living arrangement requirements, and are otherwise eligible.
- The monthly payment varies up to the maximum federal benefit rate which is standardized in all States, but not everyone gets the same amount because it may be supplemented by the State or decreased by other countable income and resources.
