Social Security Disability Benefits: Are You Eligible?
Social Security Benefits/SSI Lawyers
Serving Clients throughout the Nation
There are many misconceptions about Social Security. Most of us think of Social Security as a source of funds for retirement. In fact, many people too young for retirement are, because they are unable to work, entitled to valuable disability payments. At Ruch & Shipon, based in Philadelphia, our Social Security benefits lawyers have been able to help thousands of clients qualify for SSI/SSDI. Since the Social Security Administration is a federal agency, we are able to represent clients nationwide.

No Fee Unless We Obtain Benefits for You
Free No Obligation Consultation
We realize you may think you can't afford or don't need a lawyer to help with your benefits application. Please feel free to contact our office and ask for a completely free consultation about your situation. There is absolutely no obligation to hire our firm, and if we represent you, our fees are regulated and paid by the Social Security Administration. At your initial consultation, you don't even have to provide any personal information.
Our attorneys like to begin working with clients before their first application for SSD / SSDI benefits is filed, helping them avoid mistakes that may destroy their chances of success in later appeals. Disability Eligibility for Supplemental Security Income (SSI) or Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) benefits is determined by a number of factors:
- What is the nature of your disability?
- How long have you worked?
- For spouses of those with disabilities, how long were you married?
- How old are the children in the family?
- What education and training do you have?
- Do you have several health problems, including medication side effects, that may combine to form a qualifying level of disability?
In many cases, the way information is documented and presented in an application may determine its success or failure. Even when an original claim is denied, the success of a reconsideration or appeal often relies on the strength of the original form. You don't have to do this alone - E-mail or phone our office and make arrangements for help with your application for Social Security Disability benefits.
