Long-Term Disability Insurance Attorney

With the assistance of disability lawyers, individuals can determine whether they qualify for disability insurance from the Social Security Administration or for Supplemental Security Income (SSI) from the government. These two government-sponsored programs are intended to provide individuals who are unable to work with income assistance. Disability benefits often continue until an individual is able to return to work or reaches retirement age, at which point they are converted to retirement benefits. SSI, on the other hand, is funded by federal taxes instead of Social Security taxes. SSI benefits are designed to provide income for basic needs, including food and shelter.

Work With Disability Lawyers to Apply for Insurance Benefits and SSI

In the event of a disability, there are a number of sources where individuals may be able to turn.

If they hold long-term disability insurance policies, lawyers can assist them in filing their initial claims. One of the common reasons that claims for SSI and disability insurance are turned down is simple errors in the applications. Lawyers can also help clients evaluate whether or not they qualify for Social Security Disability Insurance or SSI, depending on their financial circumstances. Finally, lawyers at disability law firms can provide representation in the event that claims are denied by long-term insurance providers or the Social Security Administration.
