I represent clients in the Kansas City area who are seeking assistance with Social Security disability benefits. I bring over 30 years experience representing Social Security disability claims.
There are two kinds of Social Security disability benefits:
Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI): These are benefits available to someone who has paid into the system through their paycheck. You have to meet certain requirements and when you do you essentially become insurance if you were to be disabled.
Social Security Insurance: These are benefits available for those who have not paid into the system through their paycheck but can obtain benefits if they have been deemed to have a disability.
Denial of Social Security benefits
Many of my clients come in to see me after being denied disability benefits by the court or have told them they do not have a "disability" under the law. Under federal law, to be considered "disabled" you must have a severe impairment and the impairment must keep you from performing any substantial gainful employment for at least a year. In most situations, my clients need guidance on how to prove their disability. As a laweyr, I have the experience and knowledge to know what steps to take and how to make effective arguments under the law.
I understand that my clients are in a stressful situation where they are unable to work and need money to support themselves and their family. I want people to know the process of securing Social Security benefits can be time consuming often with a long waiting period. I work with my client's directly on all aspects of their case and will take the necessary steps to make the process more efficient.
