Practice Areas Description

- Social Security Disability (SSD)

The Social Security Administration provides benefits to individuals who are physically or mentally unable to work and are in need of income. Supplemental Security Income (SSI) provides monthly benefits to the disabled who meet low-income requirements. The Social Security Disability Insurance program (SSD or a SSDI) pays monthly benefits to the disabled who have worked enough years to qualify. At Berger and Green, we are happy to help people from across Pennsylvania, Ohio and West Virginia. Although it is not mandatory that you use an attorney to file for Social Security Disability (SSD), having our experienced SSD attorneys on your side can help you get through the system as quickly and painlessly as possible. You do not have to file on your own and wait to be denied before you consult with a lawyer to help you obtain benefits.

- Supplemental Security Income (SSI)

Supplemental Security Income or SSI is a government program that provides monthly benefits to the disabled who meet specific income requirements. SSI benefits include a monthly check and medical care. Supplemental Security Income is available to individuals with limited resources who are disabled, blind, or age 65 and older. Unlike Social Security Disability Insurance Benefits (DIB), you do not have to have worked and paid employment taxes in order to get benefits.

- Personal Injury

At Berger and Green, we believe that personal injury victims and families of injured people deserve to be fully compensated. In personal injury cases, this includes past and future medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and the loss of life's enjoyment. Too often, these damages go uncompensated and victims are left with the aftermath of financial devastation after an automobile accident, construction accident or other form of negligence. Attorneys at our Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, law firm represent the victims of serious personal injuries, including broken bones, scars, brain injuries, lost limbs and burns. And we are well prepared to handle many different types of personal injury cases. Our clients include the victims of work injuries, boating accidents, car accidents and slip and fall accidents. They also include the parents of children who were injured, as well as the surviving family members of people killed in accidents of all kinds.
