Disability Benefits Law Center, P.C.
Many people wait too long to file their disability application. You should file your application as soon as you believe that, because of your medical condition, you will be unable to work for at least 12 months. This is because the Social Security Administration requires that you be disabled (or expect to be disabled) for 12 continuous months in order to qualify for benefits.
If you are unsure as to whether or not to apply for disability benefits, call or e-mail our office and obtain a free consultation from one of our attorneys.
Although the disability application looks simple, there are important ways to enhance your application. With the right knowledge, it is possible to improve the chances that your application will be approved. We want to share that knowledge with you before you apply.
The best time to have an attorney become involved with your disability case is before you even apply. Our attorneys routinely perform a free review of your disability application. When we do, we are always able to suggest ways that the disability application can be strengthened. In some cases we will be able to explain how you can qualify for an earlier disability onset date (and, therefore, more retroactive disability benefits) based upon your work history.
