Legal Guidance In Your Social Security Disability Procedures

We know that if individuals require both Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI), they are indeed facing a challenging ordeal. They might need the funds to which they have a legitimate right to pay for housing, food and other necessities. Therefore, our approach to all of these cases is with the utmost level of care and compassion.

You might have recently become disabled to work and need to file a first-time claim for Social Security Disability benefits, or were previously denied the Social Security Disability benefits you are entitled to. Call Harbinson Parker, to obtain the legal representation you require to initiate an appeal. Our SSD legal team is led by Caryn Brzykcy, a distinguished attorney recently acknowledged as a “Leader in the Law” by North Carolina Lawyers Weekly. She works on these cases in the most expeditious manner possible to ensure our clients experience as little disruption in their lives as possible.

Injuries And Illnesses That Qualify For Benefits

There is a wide array of impairments, both physical and psychological, that preclude workers from being able to continue carrying out their normal job functions. We encourage you to call our office to learn whether we can assist you with a Social Security Disability claim.

Among the different types of physical barriers that many Social Security Disability Insurance clients experience are asthma, carpal tunnel syndrome, chronic back pain, diabetes, degenerative disks, fibromyalgia, heart disease, herniated disks, hip replacement surgery, joint disease, knee replacement surgery and pulmonary (lung) disease.

Some of the more common mental disabilities that prevent workers from continuing their careers, and for which we are ready to help you are: Anxiety, bipolar disorder, depression, mental retardation, personality disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

The Many Factors Considered For SSDI And SSI

While both SSDI and SSI are programs administered by the federal Social Security Administration, for most recipients, the medical requirements are identical. The difference is that SSI disability benefits are additionally based on financial needs.

To receive benefits under either the SSDI or SSI program, an applicant must prove that a physical or mental health problem, or a combination thereof, is severe enough to keep them from working in a regular paying job for a minimum of one year.

The test is not whether a worker is able to go back to their previous job or whether any employer is likely to hire them for another opening. Rather, it is whether someone is capable of performing any job available nationwide. By using an extensive set of regulations, the Social Security Administration considers the following factors: the subject’s medical condition, age, abilities, training and work experience.

Offering The Bold And Experienced Representation You Require

There is much more to know about this area of the law. We encourage you to consult one of our Taylorsville lawyers so that we can understand your situation as thoroughly as possible. It is important to note that many valid Social Security Disability claims are routinely denied as a matter of course. The Social Security Administration counts on the fact that many applicants will be discouraged after one try. That is where the trusted counsel of an attorney from 828-600-7462, can level the playing field.

Once we are retained, one of our attorneys will file a request for reconsideration. If your request is denied, we will then request a hearing before an Administrative Law Judge (ALJ). If we need to appeal, we will be ready to take your case to the Social Security Appeals Council and, ultimately, to federal court.
