How Social Security Disability Really Works

Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) provides income support for people who can’t work due to serious medical conditions. You paid into this system through your taxes—you’ve earned the right to apply for help.


Unfortunately, many first-time claims are denied. That’s why having legal help early on—or during appeals—can make all the difference in getting your claim approved faster.

Key Components

  • Proving Disability

    You must show you have a qualifying medical condition that prevents you from working full-time. This often requires strong medical documentation and clear timelines. We help gather and organize this evidence to strengthen your case.

  • Navigating the SSA System

    The Social Security Administration (SSA) has strict processes and paperwork requirements. We know their system—and we make sure your application, appeal, and hearing filings meet every requirement, giving you the best possible shot at approval.

  • Advocating Through Appeals

    Most applicants are denied at first. If you get a denial letter, don’t panic. We fight denials aggressively—submitting appeals, requesting hearings, and arguing your case in front of an administrative law judge if needed.

SSDI FAQs

  • Who qualifies for Social Security Disability benefits?

    You must have a medical condition that prevents you from working full-time and is expected to last at least one year or result in death. You also need sufficient work credits earned by paying into Social Security over time. We’ll help you confirm eligibility.

  • How long does the SSDI process take?

    Initial applications often take three to six months for a decision. If appeals are needed, the process can stretch longer—sometimes up to a year. The sooner you start with the right documents and support, the faster you can move forward.

  • What happens if my claim is denied?

    If your SSDI claim is denied, you have the right to appeal. There are several stages—reconsideration, hearing, Appeals Council review, and even federal court if necessary. We’re experienced in every level and won’t leave you hanging.

  • Can I work while applying for SSDI?

    You can sometimes work part-time under limited income thresholds, but working full-time can hurt your case. It’s critical to understand these rules before taking any job during your application. We’ll help you navigate this carefully.

  • How do attorney fees work for SSDI cases?

    You pay nothing upfront. If we win your case, our fee is a percentage of your back pay—capped by federal law. If we don’t win, you owe us nothing. That way, you can focus on getting help without worrying about extra costs.
