is committed to diligently representing the disabled and injured in
the following:
Social Security Disability Benefits/SSD
Giannet Law Firm helps the disabled with their social security disability application, social security disability denial, social security disability reconsideration appeals and social security hearings appeals.
When one faces the devastation of a disabling condition or injury and can no longer work and function normally, they may be entitled to disability benefits through the federal government.
The Social Security Disability and Supplemental Security Income programs provide assistance to people with disabilities. While these two federal programs are different in many ways, both are administered by the Social Security Administration and only individuals who have a disability and meet medical criteria may qualify for benefits under either program.
To qualify for Social Security Disability (SSD) benefits, the claimant must have worked in jobs covered by Social Security. They must have a medical condition or impairments that meet the federal regulation's definition of disability which requires that the claimant be unable to perform their past relevant work or any other work. Entitlement to SSD benefits also entitles a claimant to receive Medicare coverage.
If you suffer with any of the following disabilities and impairments and are unable to work due to your disabilities, symptoms and limitations, you may qualify for Social Security Disability benefits:
heart problems, coronary artery disease, diabetes, respiratory or breathing problems, degenerative disc disease, spinal problems, poor vision, neurologcial disorders, fibromyalgia, rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, arthritis, high blood pressure, migraines, headaches, kidney disease, cancer, lupus, anemia, thyroid disease, pain, parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, neuropathy, brain injury, depression or anxiety.
If you believe that your diagnosis and your limitations may entitle you for social security disability benefits because your conditions prevent you from working, please call our disability attorney for a free consultation about applying for social security disability or appealing a social security disability denial.
Attorney Giannet is a very experienced social security disability lawyer who represents disabled workers pursuing their social security disability benefits with initial social security disability applications, social security disability reconsideration appeals and social security disability hearings appeals.
Supplemental Security Income/SSI
Supplemental Security Income (SSI) is a Federal income supplement program funded by general tax revenues. It is designed to help aged, blind, disabled adults and disabled children, who have little or no income; and provides cash to meet basic needs for food, clothing, and shelter. Eligible claimants also receive Medicaid coverage. SSI is the disability program available to disabled children.
