What is a social security disability claim?

A social security disability claim is a request for financial assistance from the Social Security Administration (SSA) to help cover living costs when an injury or illness prevents you from working. To be eligible for social security disability benefits, you must be able to prove that you are unable to work due to your medical condition and that this condition is expected to last for at least 12 months or result in death.

Social Security Disability Claims & Types of Disabilities

There are two types of social security disability: Title II benefits (SSDI) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI). SSI is a needs-based program that provides financial assistance to disabled adults and children who have limited income and resources. SSDI is a benefit you receive if you have paid enough into the system through payroll deductions and cannot work due to an illness or injury for at least 12 months.

Many different types of disabilities can qualify you for social security disability benefits.

Are you suffering from any of these qualifying conditions? Then, contact us to discuss your eligibility to file a claim.

  • Heart disease
  • Joint problems
  • Depression
  • Kidney disease
  • Osteoporosis
  • Repetitive stress injury
  • Head trauma
  • Hearing loss
  • Autoimmune disease
  • Asthma
  • Arthritis

We understand how important it is that you receive benefits. So let the team at Richard Schwartz & Associates Injury Lawyers, P.A., help you get the financial assistance you need to get through this difficult time.

How Do I File for Social Security Disability?

To file for social security disability, you will need to provide the SSA with information about your medical condition, work history, and income. You can file for social security disability online, by mail, or in person at your local Social Security office.

The process of filing for social security disability can be complex, and it is important to have an experienced advocate on your side. The team at Richard Schwartz & Associates can help you appeal a denied claim. We will work tirelessly to ensure that you receive the benefits you deserve.

What Are the Chances of Getting Approved for Social Security Disability?

The chances of being approved for social security disability vary depending on your medical condition and the severity of your symptoms. The SSA approves around 50% of social security disability applications. However, this number can vary depending on the state in which you reside.

What Should I Do if I’ve Been Denied for Social Security Disability?

If your social security disability application is denied, you have the right to request a hearing before an administrative law judge (ALJ). This is an opportunity for you to present your case and argue why you should receive social security disability benefits.

The ALJ hearing is a formal proceeding that will be recorded and transcribed. You will be able to bring witnesses and present evidence supporting your claim. It is important to have an experienced social security disability lawyer represent you at the hearing, as they will be able to argue your case and make sure your rights are protected.

If you are denied social security disability benefits after the ALJ hearing, you have the right to appeal the decision. In addition, you can continue to pursue legal action by filing a lawsuit against the SSA.

Steps to Appeal Your SSD Claim Denial:

Gather all evidence of your disability. This includes medical records, doctor’s notes, test results, and any other documentation that can prove you cannot work due to your illness or injury.

  • Contact an experienced social security disability lawyer. They will help you file an appeal and represent your case in court.
  • Wait for a response from the Social Security Administration and the administrative law judge. The SSA and ALJ will review your case and decide whether to approve or deny your appeal.
  • If your appeal is denied, you can continue to pursue legal action by filing a lawsuit against the SSA.
  • You will begin receiving social security disability benefits if your appeal is approved.

If you have been denied social security disability, do not hesitate to contact a social security disability attorney from Richard Schwartz & Associates Injury Lawyers, P.A. We can help you file an appeal and represent your case in court. Our social security disability lawyers have years of experience helping people just like you navigate the appeals process and receive the benefits they deserve.
