Applying for Disability Benefits in New York
Disability benefits from the Social Security Administration (SSA) can make a huge difference in the lives of those who need them. When someone is unable to work because of an injury or illness, household finances can become worryingly tight. Adding the stress of living in dire financial circumstances to the other difficulties that are part of having a disabling condition can be too much for some people to bear.
Social Security Disability (SSD) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits can provide some measure of financial relief to those who are suffering from some disabling medical condition that is preventing them from earning an income.
At Olinsky Law Group, since 1986 our New York SSD/SSI attorneys have been helping people to secure the SSD and SSI benefits that they deserve. Our firm filed more SSD cases in 2010 in New York state with the federal appeals court than any other firm. We utilize our experience with the Social Security Administration's (SSA) rules and procedures to secure the maximum benefits for our clients. We understand what is necessary and how to qualify for Social Security Disability benefits as well as SSI benefits.
