Dedicated Assistance With the Filing of Claims and Handling of Appeals
Our Trenton disability benefits attorney has handled many cases where people have already filed a claim and have had it denied. While a denial is not the final word, it may be possible to avoid the appeals process if you work with our experienced lawyer from the beginning. We can help ensure that your claim is filed accurately and correctly.
If you have had a claim denied, we can help guide you through the appeals process. All appeals must be handled within 60 days and will culminate in a hearing in front of an administrative law judge (ALJ). We will work closely with you to prepare you for the hearing by obtaining your medical documentation and preparing you for your hearing testimony.
SSDI vs. SSI
SSDI is available for people who have an injury or illness that prohibits them from working for more than one year. To qualify for SSDI, you must have been employed at some point. At the law offices of Robert D. Paulbeck, Attorney at Law, our legal team works with clients who have an injury or illness that prevents them from working. The injury may have been sustained on or off the job, and can include both physical and mental conditions.
SSI is available for people who have never been employed or those people who have not worked at least 5 out of the last 10 years prior to the onset date of their disability. To qualify, a person must have assets that total less than $2,000 and have a mental or physical condition that prevents him or her from working. Regardless of the type of benefit you are seeking, you can rely on us to help guide you through this sometimes-complicated process.
