What Makes A Person ‘Disabled’ In The Government’s Eyes?

The federal government considers you to be “disabled” and entitled to SSDI benefits if:

  • You are unable to do work that you did before;
  • The Social Security Administration decides that you cannot adjust to other work because of your physical and/or mental medical condition(s); and
  • Your medical disability has lasted or is expected to last for at least one year

While this seems fairly straightforward, the process becomes much more complicated once the government denies your claim. In fact, the government denies many SSDI claims at the initial stages of the process. The Law Offices of Melissa A. Proudian focuses entirely on assisting clients with their Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) benefits claims, as well as claims for Supplemental Security Income (SSI).
