Social Security Disability Lawyer in Albany, Georgia

An Albany SSI/SSD Attorney could help you win your Disability Benefits

3 out of every 10 people in the U.S will have a disability that lasts for a year or more before they reach retirement age. For most people the only option is to apply for a social security disability benefit and for many people this works out in a way that they can cover their costs. Most of us are aware of this, but many do not realize how long the SSI SSDI process can take. Just for starters you will need to be able to show that you have a severe disability to last a year.

For Social Security Administration (SSA) facts you can contact the offices in Albany here:

It doesn’t matter where you come from or what color you are the rules are the same for every U.S. citizen. For an SSI (supplemental security income) you will need to show that you have a limited income and limited assets. An SSDI benefit will be based on the amount you have paid in as a worker over the years.

Whether you are making a claim for SSI or SSDI you will still have to show that you are incapable of substantial work for at least a year. This may seem obvious to you but the frightening truth is that many people have to go through extra medical tests, have their SSDI cases taken to appeal before a judge, and have every little part of their impairment questioned before being able to get a social security disability benefit. Just because your doctor says you can’t work does not mean the SSA will accept your claim.

When it comes to your own financial survival it is often not enough just to go with the flow. If your SSDI claim is rejected for any reason (and there are many) you will be left sitting and waiting for appeal time. Some SSI SSDI claims can take more than a year to settle – are you prepared to cope financially for that? The easiest and (in the end) most cost effective solution is to consult a qualified social security lawyer. The fees are pretty low and only charged if you win your SSDI claim.
