Social Security Disability Insurance Claims & Appeals

In the event that a working American becomes disabled, he or she may be entitled to benefits under Social Security Disability Insurance. This program serves an important role in helping the disabled survive financially in spite of the fact that they are unable to work. Applying for Social Security Disability benefits can be complex, however, and many claims are initially denied. That is why we highly recommend involving a lawyer who can not only help you file your application but who can help in the event that there is any issue or your application is denied.

If you or someone you love is suffering from a disabling medical condition and can no longer work, you may be able to seek Social Security Disability benefits. A Charlotte injury attorney at our law office can talk to you about the benefits that may be available to you, how to apply and what to do if you already applied and your application was denied.

Are you eligible for Social Security Disability benefits?

Determining Social Security Disability eligibility can be complex, and whether you qualify will vary depending on a number of issues. However, there are five primary factors that the Social Security Administration may consider when determining whether an applicant is disabled:

1. Is the applicant working?
2. Is the applicant's medical condition severe enough to interfere with his or her work-related activities?
3. Is the applicant's condition on the list of medical conditions maintained by the Social Security Administration?
4. Is the applicant able to perform the work he or she previously took part in?
5. Is the applicant able to perform any other type of work?
