Do You Have a Social Security Disability Claim or an Appeal?

It isn't easy to file or appeal on your own. Get help from a Kentucky SSD law firm.

For disabled veterans, people injured on the job or in car accidents, people who develop diseases and conditions that limit their abilities, and millions of others, Social Security benefits provide a means to live a dignified existence. Isaacs & Isaacs helps people in Louisville, Kentucky and the surrounding areas with their Social Security Disability (SSD or SSDI) claims. We can assist when you:

First file for disability Need to understand what to expect
Receive a denial of your disability claim Need to quickly get claim approval
Are frustrated and overwhelmed by paperwork and the SSDI claims process Want to maximize your benefits

Many legitimate Social Security Disability claims and appeals are denied.

For many disabled people, dealing with day-to-day challenges can be hard to manage on a good day. Dealing with Social Security, paperwork, filing deadlines, and appeals adds unnecessary complications. Without the proper approach, claims may be denied.

Sometimes a claim may be denied because someone does not appear to be disabled because some disabilities are more apparent than others. For example, people with multiple sclerosis, limited vision, brain trauma, or back injuries can look perfectly fine, but their disability can make it impossible for them to stand, sit, or concentrate for more than a moment - making full-time employment nearly impossible.

Don't be overwhelmed by the paperwork or the process. Let us take care of it for you!

At Isaacs & Isaacs, PSC, our experienced Social Security Disability attorneys take the time to understand your disability. We let you know what to expect and keep you informed throughout the application and appeals processes. Just bring in all your paperwork and we will take care of it on your behalf.

Social Security provides much needed assistance for the most vulnerable.

The Social Security Administration (SSA) provides disability benefits for total (not partial or short-term) disability. SSA considers you disabled if the following are all true:

  • You cannot do work that you did before
  • We decide that you cannot adjust to other work because of your medical condition(s)
  • Your disability has lasted or is expected to last for at least one year or to result in death

According to SSA "This is a strict definition of disability. Social Security program rules assume that working families have access to other resources to provide support during periods of short-term disabilities, including workers' compensation, insurance, savings and investments." SSA lists the types of disabilities that may be covered under SSD.

You need a lawyer to help you navigate the SSD rules.

SSD rules can be very confusing. SSA will deny benefits if these rules are not closely followed. A lawyer with experience with Social Security Disability claims can save time, avoid frustrations, limit appeals, and get you benefits much sooner than if you attempt to file on your own. The attorneys at Isaacs & Isaacs, PSC have helped people in Louisville and throughout Kentucky get much needed benefits. And, they can help those who do not qualify under the SSD rules, apply for and obtain other benefits such as Supplemental Security Income (SSI).

If SSA denies your claim, call us immediately. Contact us now. Don't delay.

When your claim is denied by SSA, if you don't file an appeal within 60 days, you will need to start again with a new application. If you think you have a disability claim, contact us as soon as possible. We can help you find the right options for your situation. It can take up to eight months for a claim to be processed and more than a year when a claim is appealed. The attorneys at Isaacs & Isaacs, PCS can help move you through the claim process and/or any appeals quickly and efficiently.
