Many people think of Social Security as supplemental income for retirement. While it is designed to help in retirement, Social Security is also designed to provide financial support for people unable to work due to an injury or other disability.
Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) are federal programs designed to provide financial relief to the disabled. While it is not required to have a Social Security attorney in order to receive Social Security payments, it is advisable to find an experienced Social Security Disability lawyer to represent your needs. Some estimates indicate nearly 60% of initial claims for Social Security Disability are denied.
Social Security disability claims are denied for many reasons, including:
- Missing or incomplete information on the application
- Medical records may be inappropriate
- Reasons for the claim are not clearly presented
Statistics show that your chances of getting benefits are better if your claim or appeal is handled by a professional with experience in SSDI and SSI claims and appeals.
