Social security benefits available if you have a serious injury that could last for more than a year

If you suffer a serious personal injury or any illnesss for that matter you should apply for social security disability. The requirement to get benefits is that your injury is going to last for more than a year and cause you not to be gainfully employed.

Most people believe Social Security is a Federal program that only prov ides retirement benefits. This is not the case. There is a complex disability component to the Social Security program.


Who is disabled and who is not disabled has evolved into a complex question that is not always easily answered. As a result, the Social Security application and decision process has become increasingly complex and now, more than ever, requires that a skilled Social Security Lawyer be involved in the process from the beginning application.

Social Security denies approximately 70% - 75% of the applications for disability. Approximately 60% -70% of these denials are turned into accepted claims after either reconsideration or a hearing before an Administrative Law Judge. Having a Social Security Disability Lawyer working for you at these stages can greatly increase your chances of success at the reconsideration or Administrative Law Judge hearing level before the Social Security Administration.

If you are applying for Social Security Disability benefits, having a lawyer on your side that has a strong knowledge of how the Social Security Disability claims process works is critical and can greatly improve your chances of getting your case approved in the application stage or at the hearing level.
