How to Apply for Social Security Disability
To qualify for Social Security Disability benefits, your medical conditions must be severe enough that you cannot continue in your job or find a different line of work.
Your health problems that make it impossible for you to work also must have lasted, or are expected to last, at least a year or are expected to result in death.
That means when you fill out the application forms and send information to the SSA, you will need a lot of information that can be tedious to gather:
- Evidence of your medical treatment
- Evidence of your work history
- Evidence of your education background
- Witness statements from people who know you
It’s easy to make a mistake on your application, hurting your chances of winning benefits.
In fact, the SSA denies most people when they initially apply.
Instead of taking chances with benefits that could make a difference in your life, work with someone who has handled this process countless times.
Let Greenbaum Breuer & Associates deal with the SSA. Our disability lawyers will help you from your first application through every step of appealing a denial. Whatever it takes.
And you will pay no attorney fee until you win benefits.
