Social Security Disability Attorney in Pennsylvania and New Jersey

Disability Benefits May Be Due to You for Your Severe Injuries

A good candidate for Social Security Disability benefits is someone who has a severe injury or other medical condition that has prevented him or her from working for 12 months. The employee also should have worked long enough (usually for five out of the last 10 years) in a job that is covered under the provisions of the Social Security Act. If you have not paid into the SSD program, you may be qualified for Supplemental Security Income.

What is Supplemental Security Income?

The Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program was created to assist qualified applicants who, based on their source of income, have not paid into the Social Security Disability (SSD) program through payroll deductions. These may include Pennsylvania or New Jersey residents who were self-employed, owned their own businesses or farms, were homemakers or were out of the workforce.

If you find yourself unable to support yourself based on an injury and do not qualify for SSD benefits, you may be able to secure benefits through the SSI program. Whether you were injured in an auto accident or while at work, the attorneys at Flager & Associates are ready to help qualified applicants advance their claims.

Unfortunately for most people seeking claims, Social Security Disability (SSD) benefits are difficult to obtain, even if they are severely injured. But you should not be discouraged if your claim is denied.  At Flager & Associates, PC, we have the resources and know-how to seek the justice you deserve.

How to Make a Successful SSD Claim or Qualify for SSI

Even if your initial claim was denied – as most initial claims are – our attorneys may be able to help. After the initial denial, you will need to take a series of steps to get your case reconsidered, and you must act promptly before the appeal process closes. If you have been paying into the SSD through wage deductions and are injured and unable to return to work for 12 months, you deserve a fair hearing.
