Social Security Disability
Helping disabled individuals navigate the SSDI and SSI application and appeals process to secure the benefits they have earned.
Appeal deadlines are strict — typically 60 days from the date of denial. Missing a deadline can force you to start over. Contact us today.
When illness or injury prevents you from working, Social Security Disability benefits can be the difference between financial survival and devastation. Unfortunately, the application process is long, complex, and results in denials for the majority of first-time applicants — even for people with legitimate, severe disabilities.
At Smith & Associates, we guide clients through every stage of the Social Security Disability process — initial applications, reconsiderations, hearings before Administrative Law Judges, Appeals Council review, and federal court appeals. We help gather and present the medical and vocational evidence required to meet Social Security's strict definition of disability.
We handle both Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) claims — for people who have worked and paid into the system — and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) claims for those with limited work history but financial need. Our firm takes no fee unless we win your benefits.
