You may be entitled to benefits: the SSI and SSDI program at a glance
If you have already applied and been rejected for social security benefits, you are among the majority. The application and appeal process can sometimes be difficult to navigate through. For example, you will need to understand the best method of presenting proof of your disability. An experienced Orange social security lawyer can really help with that process. The consequences of losing your social security claim can have serious consequences. Those who qualify get monthly payments to live off. In many cases, you can also get Medicare or Medicaid. These payments and other potential benefits often mean the difference between survival and homelessness for those suffering from disabilities.
Lawyers cost too much, how would I afford to pay a social security lawyer?
You may be surprised to learn that a social security lawyer is quite affordable, even if you have no source of income. When you hire a social security attorney, you only pay them attorney fees if you win your claim. So, you only pay if you get paid. First off, a social security attorney is legally not allowed to charge more than 25% of the back pay/past due benefits awarded to you, up to a maximum of $6,000. Second, you are insured not to pay more than that because the government must approve of the attorney’s fee before you are required to pay the attorney for his services. Don’t wait to contact an experienced Orange Social Security lawyer. Fill out the form on the left.
Social Security: Who qualifies for SSI and SSDI
The Social Security System can provide you with monthly payments if you qualify. To qualify for either the SSI (Supplemental Security Income) or SSDI (Social Security Disability Insurance) programs, you must meet their criteria. Generally, to qualify for either, you must suffer from an injury that prevents you from working for a year or more (or one that results in death). Both systems are explained below.
SSDI: Federal Workers Insurance for the Disabled - Contact a Knowledgeable Orange Disability Insurance Attorney Today
SSDI provides disability payments to Americans who can demonstrate a work history of paying taxes into the social security system. To qualify, you must prove (1) the existence of a disability that prevents you from working for at least one year, and (2) that you worked and paid social security taxes over the course of the previous years (the number of years depends on your age). SSDI recipients may also qualify for Medicare. Contact an experienced Orange SSDI lawyer now to learn more.
The federal SSI program – work with a qualified Orange Disability Attorney
SSI, unlike SSDI, is a welfare-based program that pays those with disabilities, regardless of their work history. To qualify, claimants must make less than a minimum threshold of income (a very small amount). Those who qualify may also be eligible for food stamps, and Medicaid.
