Social Security Disability Attorneys

The process of obtaining Social Security Disability (SSD) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits can be frustrating. In fact, the majority of people seeking SSD and SSI benefits are denied at the initial application. At Purcell, Krug & Haller, you can expect your legal concerns to be attended to promptly and professionally.

Have you or someone you know been denied SSD or SSI benefits? Please contact a lawyer from PK&H today to arrange your consultation. Attorney’s fees are contingent upon you being found disabled and the Social Security Administration awarding you SSD or SSI benefits. Additionally, the amount of attorneys' fees are limited by federal statute and are only payable from retroactive benefits you should have been receiving all along.

Social Security Disability

To be eligible for Social Security Disability benefits, you must meet certain financial and disability requirements imposed by the Social Security Administration. These requirements include having paid into the Social Security system for a certain time period based on your age, and the inability to return to work for a 12 month period due to a medically determined physical or mental impairment. Supplemental Security Income is based on financial need and the same disability factors applied to SSD benefits.

If you are denied SSD or SSI benefits after your initial application, do not give up. You may request a hearing before an Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) after the initial determination, so long as your appeal is timely filed after you are first denied.
