What Are Social Security Disability Benefits?
Social Security Disability benefits are a vital form of financial support designed to assist individuals who are unable to work due to a disabling condition. These benefits, administered by the Social Security Administration (SSA), provide monthly payments to help cover living expenses for those who meet strict eligibility criteria.
The program is aimed at individuals who have worked and paid into the Social Security system long enough to qualify, as well as those with severe, medically verifiable disabilities that prevent them from engaging in substantial gainful activity. Examples of qualifying conditions include chronic illnesses, physical impairments, and mental health disorders, among others.
These benefits are meant to ease the financial burden for individuals and families dealing with the challenges of a disability. By offering a stable source of income, Social Security Disability benefits can help cover essential costs like housing, food, and medical expenses.
If you’re unsure whether you’re eligible or have questions about the application process, an experienced Social Security Disability attorney can provide guidance. We’re here to help you understand the program, handle your claim, and advocate on your behalf to secure the benefits you deserve.

How Do I Know if I Have a Claim?
Determining whether you have a valid claim for Social Security Disability benefits starts with understanding the key eligibility criteria.
Here are some important factors to consider:
Work History
To qualify for Social Security Disability benefits, you need to have worked and paid into the Social Security system through payroll taxes. The amount of work you need to qualify depends on your age and when the disability began. This is measured in “work credits,” which are earned based on your yearly income.
Medical Evidence
A strong claim requires clear and documented medical evidence of a disabling condition. Your disability must be severe, long-lasting (expected to last at least a year or result in death), and medically verifiable. Having thorough medical records, such as test results and doctor’s notes, is essential to proving your case.
Severity of the Disability
The SSA evaluates whether your disability prevents you from performing substantial gainful activity (SGA). If your condition makes it impossible for you to maintain regular employment, you may meet this requirement. The SSA also uses a "list of impairments" to determine if certain conditions qualify automatically, though others may require additional evaluation.
Everyone’s situation is different, and the process can feel overwhelming. That’s where we come in. Consulting with an experienced Social Security Disability attorney can help you better understand your eligibility and what steps to take. We’re here to build a strong claim for you, help with paperwork, and advocate on your behalf throughout the process.
