Social Security Disability (SSD) benefits provide crucial support to individuals in Alabama who are unable to work due to a physical or mental disability. Eligibility for SSD benefits is determined based on the severity of the medical condition, its expected duration of at least one year or resulting in death, and its impact on the individual's ability to work.
There are two main disability programs: Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI). While not everyone qualifies for SSDI, those ineligible may still be eligible for SSI benefits. Our experienced attorneys can help you assess your eligibility and navigate the application process for the program that best suits your situation.
If your SSD claim has been denied, don't lose hope. Our attorneys specialize in dealing with the Social Security Administration and can assist you in appealing the decision. Statistics show that applicants in Alabama have a higher chance of approval with legal representation, making it essential to seek experienced legal counsel.
