Did you know that over 60% of initial claims for Social Security Disability are denied? Hiring an attorney can increase your chances of approval. An attorney can help you build a solid case that stands a much better chance of being accepted by the SSA.

Although you may have a strong case for receiving social security disability benefits, there’s always the chance the government won’t quite agree with you. Having an experienced social security attorney on your side could help you fight your case.

Growth in Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) has been attributed to demographics. Baby Boomers are entering into their higher disability years, and women who entered the workforce in significant numbers in the 1970s and 1980s may now be eligible for SSDI based on previous contributions.

When it comes time for your hearing regarding your social security disability benefits, you will want to be represented by the best. Being prepared for the hearing is essential and will have a huge impact on your quality of life.

It’s important to understand that the determination of whether you are disabled or not leaves a lot of room for argument. The fact that your doctor has advised you not to work doesn’t mean that the Social Security Administration will agree that you are disabled.

While the supplemental security income (SSI) is run by the Social Security Administration, it is actually a cooperative program between the SSA and the state government. This means that a person’s eligibility will depend, at least in part, on what state they reside in.

So what’s the difference between social security disability insurance (SSDI) and supplemental security income (SSI)? While SSDI is available only to disabled people who have already worked for a certain number of years, SSI is available to those who are disabled and whose incomes and assets are very low.

It may take years for you to receive your Social Security Disability Income (SSDI) benefits. You should speak to your Social Security Disability Insurance attorney to ensure you receive timely and equitable benefits.

Many disabled workers will have to appeal their case before being awarded disability benefits. The procedure is extensive and complicated, and often the help of an attorney is advised. They will file an appeal with the Appeals council on your behalf.

Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) is funded through payroll contributions that are paid by both employees and employers. This Social Security Insurance provides benefits to those workers who have contributed enough through payroll contributions to receive benefits and those who are deemed to have significant disabilities before they reach full retirement age.
