About Social Security Disability
If you are injured and haven't been able to work for at least 12 months, or if your injury is expected to keep you from working for a year or result in death, you may be eligible to receive Social Security Disability benefits, including monthly cash payments and Medicare insurance.
To be eligible for benefits, you must:
- Have worked at a job that is covered by Social Security Disability Insurance
- Have worked at covered jobs long enough—generally five out of the past 10 years
- Meet the SSA's definition of disability
Our attorneys have won benefits for people with all types of injuries and occupational illnesses. We understand the system and the type of documentation required in order to win approval of your claim. We even win benefits for clients who suffer from hard-to-document conditions such as chronic pain, chronic fatigue syndrome, or mental impairments.
