We Partner With You To Protect Your Future
Being laid off or fired from a job can be stressful. When a physical or psychological disability prevents you from earning a wage, your future can be drastically affected.
At Jeffrey Buskirk & Associates, our Grove City, Ohio, attorneys partner with you to protect your future. Our lawyers understand the benefit of working closely with you to ensure you receive appropriate Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) monthly benefit payments.
We Understand Your Options
Our lawyers have provided dedicated Social Security Disability support since 1989. We routinely help clients with:
- SSDI claims - You are eligible for SSDI benefits if you have a psychological or physical disability that prevents you from holding a job and you have worked in the past. There is no financial minimum to qualify - you could hold significant assets and still qualify.
- SSI claims - You apply for SSI benefits through the Social Security Administration. You must be found unable to work due to a disability and meet certain financial requirements.
The Application Process
A snapshot view of the application process can go like this:
- You send in your initial application.
- Your initial application is denied.
- You submit a Social Security appeal.
- Your appeal is denied.
- You request a Reconsideration.
- Your Reconsideration is denied.
- You have a Disability Hearing.
- You are approved, or start the process again.
We Understand The System
To qualify for SSDI and SSI claims under the rules and regulations of the Social Security Administration (SSA), your claims must meet certain criteria. Your doctor must provide accurate medical records that detail your qualifying disabilities. Then the SSA must review your application. With SSI claims, you also must prove a financial hardship through submission of complete financial records.
We Provide Thorough Support
It can take years for your application for benefits to be approved by the SSA. Unfortunately, th odds are that your initial SSDI or SSI claim will be denied. You may need to file a Social Security appeal. If your appeals are denied by the SSA, our lawyers can help you provide proof of disability in reconsiderations and hearings.
