How Do You Know If You Are Considered Disabled?
Contact the Southern Nevada/Las Vegas Social Security Disability/SSI Attorney
The Social Security Administration considers someone disabled if he or she has health issues that keep him or her from being capable of working for 12 months or more. These medical matters can be physical issues, mental disabilities or a combination of both.
If you believe that you will be unable to work for 12 months or more, contact Southern Nevada/Las Vegas Social Security disability attorney Gerald M. Welt to discuss the options available to you in filing a Social Security Disability/SSI Claim. It does not cost you anything to meet with Mr. Welt. Attorney’s fees are structured and capped by the government and only paid when you receive benefits. In many cases, with the help of counsel, you will be successful and receive the benefits you deserve.
Determining Disability
In order to receive disability benefits you need to prove that you are unable to work due to a physical or mental disability and that you have been unable to work, or will be unable to work, for at least 12 months. You must meet the regulations established by Social Security Administration. You must file a Social Security Disability/SSI claim. If you are denied benefits you should file for reconsideration, and if denied, then you can present your case to an Administrative Law Judge. At the hearing, the Judge will review your case and will request information including:
- Medical condition
- Age
- Abilities
- Training
- Work experience
