Your SSI or SSDI application: it makes a big difference
The vast majority of the initial applicants are denied social security benefits: generally, between 65% and 70%. By working with an experienced Baldwin Park social security lawyer, you can increase your chances of success because you will be working with someone who understands the criteria that the review board is looking for. For many, losing their social security claim has devastating consequences. Those who are disabled who do not have an alternative source of income potentially face homelessness. The SSI and SSDI systems provide monthly payments from the federal government for our most vulnerable citizens. These payments can cover the cost of living, and in some cases the SSI and SSDI systems also provide medical coverage.
How can I afford a Social Security lawyer when I can’t work?
Because the people who need a social security lawyer usually do not have a source of income, social security lawyers structure their fees to make their services affordable. Most all Social Security lawyers work on a contingency basis: which means they only get paid if you win your case. The social security system oversees the amount a social security attorney can charge. For example, they are capped at making 25% of the back pay awarded to you. Even then, they can only make a maximum of $6,000 on your case. Contact your Baldwin Park Social Security lawyer today by filling out the form on the left.
Learning about the SSI and SSDI programs
Both Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) have strict requirements. Both systems provide disability payments to those who cannot work for a year or more due to an injury. While related, these programs are quite different.
Social Security Disability Income (SSDI) – Work with a Knowledgeable Baldwin Park Disability Insurance Attorney Today
To receive payments under the SSDI plan, you must have worked a percentage of the previous years (depending on your age). Thus, only those with a work history can qualify. Beneficiaries may also qualify for Medicare coverage. Speak with an experienced Baldwin Park SSDI lawyer to learn more.
SSI: You may qualify - Reach a qualified Baldwin Park Disability Attorney
The SSI system provides monthly payments, of a minimum amount, to disabled people. The benefits are paid regardless of whether you previously paid into the Social Security System.
