Fight for the Disability Benefits You Deserve

What Is SSDI?

SSDI stands for Social Security Disability Insurance, a federal program that provides monthly income to people who are unable to work due to long-term disabilities. To qualify, you must:

  • Have a severe physical or mental impairment

  • Be unable to perform your previous work or adjust to new work

  • Have paid into Social Security through employment taxes

Even if you meet these criteria, many claims are denied due to missing documentation or small errors in the application process.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is SSDI?

SSDI is a federal program that provides financial assistance to individuals with disabilities who cannot work.

To qualify, you must have a severe disability that prevents you from working and have earned sufficient work credits.

You can apply online, by phone, or at your local Social Security office. An attorney can help streamline the process.

If denied, you can appeal the decision through a reconsideration request, hearing, or further appeals with legal support.

The approval process can take several months, but retroactive benefits may be available from the time you became disabled.

SSDI allows limited work under a trial work period, enabling you to test your ability to work without losing benefits.

Hedtke Law made my chapter 7 bankruptcy a breeze. Neil informed me of all my options before filling for chapter 7. After coming to the conclusion chapter 7 was my best option he explained the whole process answered all my questions promptly. He eliminated the stressful process by handling all the court paper work and informing me of everything I needed to do. Highly recommend this firm!
