Experienced NYC SSD Lawyer for Disability Income
The more that a person has worked, earned and paid into the system, the more compensation that person will be eligible to receive when disabled. There is an eligibility requirement that you will have to meet, showing a specific earnings record. These issues and calculations can be complex and often need a thorough attorney review prior to and during the application process. There are many common mistakes that can undermine your claim for benefits.
There are many other details of SSD benefits that you should know if you are trying to apply for these benefits or if you have already been denied and need to appeal your claim. Talking with an experienced attorney is in your best interests, and may even help you expedite your claim.
