Understanding Social Security Disability Benefits: Free E-Book Now Available

If you are like most Americans, you are aware that you can get benefits from the government if you have a disability — but you probably don’t know too many details. Many of us are fortunate to not have to learn about disability benefits firsthand. However, if the time comes that you are unable to work due to a disability, you will want to learn as much as possible about your rights.

The Social Security Administration (SSA) offers two types of disability benefits: Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI). Both SSDI and SSI are designed to help people who cannot work because of a disability. However, there are a number of important differences between the two programs, including how a person can qualify for each type of benefit.

If you have a disability that is expected to last for 12 months or longer or to result in death, you may be eligible for SSDI and/or SSI. Both types of benefits require an applicant to prove that they are unable to work due to a disability. To qualify for SSDI, you must have paid into the system through working, while SSI is a needs-based program that analyzes your income and resources.

Just 28% of all Social Security disability benefits claims are approved after an initial application. Denials can be appealed through a four-level process, which often includes a hearing before an Administrative Law Judge (ALJ). 

Understanding what the SSA looks for when deciding disability benefit applications can help as you work your way through the process. Our new e-book on Social Security claims lays out all of the information that you need, including:

  • The difference between SSDI and SSI
  • How to apply for Social Security disability benefits
  • What to watch for when applying for benefits
  • How to appeal a denial

We have written this e-book to be accessible for everyone, with a focus on empowering Americans with disabilities as they go through the SSDI and/or SSI application process. This e-book is available free of charge.

Bross & Frankel was founded in 1995 by a former Benefit Authorizer for the Social Security Administration. Over the past 25 years, our law firm has represented thousands of clients as they apply for disability benefits, whether through the SSA, the Department of Veterans’ Affairs, or their own long-term disability insurance company. We are fierce advocates for our clients, putting our knowledge of the system and the law to work for each individual.

Client Reviews

I thought I could apply for social security on my own and breeze through the process. After being denied my neighbor told me about Bross & Frenkel, so I gave them a call. Mr. Bross called me directly and took on my case.

- Pun!Kin

Rich Frankel is a great person and made me feel taken care of through all my disability issues with the VA and my employer. He is very knowledgeable of the VA disability and employment law and I thank him for all of his help.

Very helpful for our family and helped in a timely manner.

- Bernadette Barricella Forbes

After the first interview, the process seemed to move right along. All the paperwork was filed fast and emails were sent on detailed updates. SSI is a very slow and agonizing journey, but it’s good to have representation that knows what to …
