Practice Areas Description

- Social Security Disability

Your eligibility for SSD benefits (also known as Social Security Disability Insurance benefits or DIB) depends on your work history and your disability. In most cases, if you have worked five out of the last 10 years and are disabled (according to the Social Security Administration's (SSA) definition) — you are eligible, covered and will be fully insured. To be eligible for national SSI benefits, you must meet that same definition of disability and you must have sufficiently limited income and assets.

- Disability and the Age Factor

Even the national government recognizes that job retraining or transitioning back into a previous line of work is much more difficult for people who are over the age of 50. As a result, the Social Security Administration (SSA) is generally less skeptical of disability claims that have been made by older workers. Even so, it is important to remember that nearly one million disability claims are initially denied each year by the SSA, including many that have been made by older workers. In other words, don't make the mistake of assuming that you'll automatically be approved just because you're older. Don't gamble with your future.

- Social Security Disability Application

At My Social Security Disability Benefits, applying for money and benefits is easier. We make certain you have all the right forms and review them for accuracy and completeness. We work with your doctors and gather all of the medical records and information that will be needed to support your claim. In short, we take care of it all so that you can focus on your life. Best of all, you don't pay us, unless we recover money and benefits for you.

- Denial of Social Security Disability Claims

The words "disability claim" and "denied" apply to the nearly one million disability claims that are initially denied each year in the United States. So what is the difference between the relatively small percentage of applicants who are approved and the great majority of those who are denied? In most cases, the people who get denied are people who applied for money and benefits or appealed a denied disability claim without the help of a lawyer. Instead of making that same mistake yourself, or worse, trying to represent yourself in an administrative appeal — let the conscientious and dedicated team of attorneys and professionals at My Social Security Disability Benefits start helping you today.

- Social Security Disability Appeals

Have you already filed your initial claim for Social Security Disability insurance (SSDI) or Supplement Security Income (SSI)? Has your claim been denied by the Social Security Administration (SSA)? If so, do not give up hope. Representation by an experienced Social Security appeals attorney may still help you obtain the money and benefits you need and deserve. At Schwartzapfel Partners P.C., our dedicated team of professionals is standing by to help you with your Social Security appeal. We have handled thousands of cases involving all types of legal matters and have been successful on behalf of our clients more than 98 percent of the time.

- SSD Eligible Impairments Litigation

If you can satisfy work history requirements, and you have a medical impairment that meets or equals a government listed impairment — you automatically qualify for money and benefits. End of story. Unfortunately, doctors don't always understand the medical evaluation criteria, the evidence requirements or what the Social Security Administration (SSA) wants to see before it will issue a favorable ruling. At My Social Security Disability Benefits, working with doctors is an important skill that the dedicated team of attorneys and support staff of professionals have developed, and one that has enabled us to help thousands of people involving all types of legal matters obtain the money and benefits they deserve and need. We help people nationally to obtain Social Security Disability (SSD) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits.
