Frequently asked in Louisville/Jefferson County
What makes someone eligible for SSDI?
To be eligible for SSDI, you typically need a sufficient work history where you've paid Social Security taxes. Your medical condition must be severe enough to prevent you from engaging in substantial gainful activity, and it must be expected to last at least one year or result in death. We can help assess your work credits and medical condition.
Is the ticket to work program a trap?
The Ticket to Work program aims to help beneficiaries with disabilities return to work by connecting them with employment services. It's designed to be a helpful resource, but it's important to understand its rules and how it interacts with your benefits. We can discuss whether it might be a good fit for you.
What is the difference between SSI and SSDI?
SSDI is a benefit for those who have worked and paid Social Security taxes, while SSI is a needs-based program for individuals with limited income and resources, regardless of their work history. The eligibility requirements and benefit calculations for each program are quite different. Understanding these distinctions is crucial.
What does SSDI usually pay?
What is the most a SSDI lawyer can charge?
SSDI lawyers typically work on contingency, meaning they only get paid if you win your case. Their fee is a percentage of your back pay, capped by federal law. This fee structure means you won't have to pay anything upfront, which is a significant help when you're unable to work.
Is it easier to get SSDI with a lawyer?
Many applicants find that legal representation significantly improves their chances of a successful SSDI claim. Lawyers are familiar with the complex Social Security system, can help gather crucial evidence, and effectively advocate on your behalf. This expertise can make a substantial difference.
