One concern people have when they become disabled is if their condition qualifies for SSI/SSD disability benefits. While the basic rule is that the condition must prevent you from working for at least one year there is more required to be approved. Many people mistakenly believe that as long as their doctor has labeled them as unable to work that this diagnosis is enough. In fact it is the SSA that has to declare you are disabled and you have to prove your claim.

In some cases this is easy as the disability is obvious and profound. But other cases can be more difficult and a person can spend years trying to get their claim for SSI or SSD benefits approved by the SSA. Compiling documentation to prove your claim can be difficult, and many people are unaware of what kind of statements and medical test results that the SSA wants to see. A disability lawyer who specializes in Social Security knows exactly what kind of information you need to submit with your SSI or SSD application. They can review your medical records and work history and help you file a claim that has a good chance of being approved.
