What Is a Disability?

Disability Attorneys in Syracuse and Rochester

For those who have suffered an injury or medical condition that causes limitations to your ability to perform work it may seem plain enough that you are suffering a disability. To receive disability benefits from the Social Security Administration (SSA) your disabling injury or condition must be quantifiable. There are rules and laws in place that dictate what constitutes a disability in reference to becoming eligible to receive Social Security Disability (SSD).

At Olinsky Law Group, our New York SSD lawyers understand what type of evidence the SSA requires in order to recognize your disability. We also understand how to present that evidence in a manner that is recognized by the SSA. This is very important as the SSA will often refuse to acknowledge even sufficient applicable evidence of a disabling condition if it is not presented in accordance with their fairly strict standards.

With our decades of experience and the volume of SSD cases that we handle, we are fully prepared to help you secure the SSD benefits that you deserve. We were the largest filer of SSD cases in New York in 2010 in the federal court of appeals.

What Is a Disability?

The SSA will recognize your disability if it prevents you from being able to work full time. This does not mean that you cannot work at all. Part time work may not have an impact on whether or not the find you to be disabled. For certain illnesses, the SSA maintains a list of symptoms. If you exhibit all of the symptoms on the list you will be determined to be disabled.
