Mount Pocono Social Security Disability Attorney

Dealing with a disability is difficult enough without the stress of worrying about how you will support yourself and your family when you cannot work. Whether you are unable to work temporarily or permanently, social security disability insurance can help you get the money you need to pay for necessities. This program run by the federal government is an insurance that you have paid for your entire working life through paycheck deductions.

Figuring out if you qualify for social security disability insurance is difficult to understand without help from someone who knows the technical terms. People who suffer from disabilities need to provide the Social Security Administration (SSA) with information related to the nature of their disability, their current age, the length of time since their initial diagnosis and complications of the disability that make it impossible for them to work.

People who are applying for benefits in Pennsylvania are required to send an application to the Pennsylvania Disability Determination Services in addition to the application that is sent to the Social Security Administration ( SSA ). Even after you apply for benefits, you may have to deal with the lengthy appeals process if you are denied. Contacting a lawyer with a social security disability experience is recommended to make this process more manageable.

Contacting an SSD Attorney Mount Pocono

Both the Pennsylvania Disability Determination Services and the Social Security Administration will review your application to decide whether you are eligible for social security disability benefits. Your application must be as thorough as possible, and understanding what is expected can be difficult when legal and technical terms are used on the application. Having a legal professional on your side to assist with this process helps because lawyers can understand the application and advise you on how to proceed.

A social security disability lawyer is responsible for helping you gather necessary medical records that are used as proof of disability. Any technical terms that are confusing will be explained to you in detail by your lawyer, and you can consult a legal professional for help with a denial notice if you have already applied for benefits and been denied. The goal of a SSD lawyer is to help you get the benefits that you need to pay for your basic necessities because disability has left you unable to work.

Supporting Your Family Through Disability

Individuals who support a spouse, children or even grandchildren may be eligible to receive social security benefits that are sufficient enough to pay for the needs of these dependents. If you have any immediate family members who depend on you for financial support, you should let your SSD lawyer know so that they can reflect this information on your application.

A failure to mention dependents could lead to approval for far less than you need to support your family, but the Social Security Administration and Pennsylvania Disability Determination Services will take these dependents into consideration if they are told about family members during the application process. Consult a legal professional to help you get the benefits you need to maintain quality of life for you and your family.
