Our firm will guide you through every phase of obtaining Social Security Disability or Supplemental Security Income benefits, from filling out the initial application to handling a hearing in front of the Social Security Administration.

 If you are approved for Social Security Disability, you could be entitled to a monthly check. Every case is different. The amount is determined by your income and contribution to Social Security. Once approved, there is a five month waiting period for Social Security Disability benefits, and the benefit amount can be impacted by any worker’s compensation payments the individual may receive.

Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits are available to medically disabled individuals who may not have the work credits to qualify for Social Security Disability, and may qualify for assistance based on need. Eligibility for Supplemental Security Income (SSI) depends on the applicant’s income and assets.
