SSI Case

Are you looking for a Sacramento SSI Lawyer? If a medical condition seriously hinders your ability to work, there is no better time than now to call a Sacramento Social Security Disability SSI Lawyer. There are several ways to help you depending on what brought about your disability. Although some conditions might have occurred over time or from an early age if you were injured while at work, if severe enough, it could turn into long-term issues with the necessity for long-term financial support.

Gold Country Workers’ Comp Center is a very reliable and trusted disability law firm that can help you get back your lost wages and compensation if you suffered an injury while at work.  Workers’ Comp benefits are available for specific injuries, like lifting too much or falling, OR that resulted from micro day-to-day trauma on any body part that eventually develops to the point of seeking medical care or the medical need to take time off.  We can help you file the correct forms and assist you through the possibly lengthy process. While this is going on, you might also qualify for additional programs as well.  In fact, if you are still employed there might already be benefits offered to you by your employer you might not know about. We can also help determine if you qualify for a private insurance policy, as the definition of “disabled” differs and might involve some measures to be sure you are eligible.  Gold Country typically does not charge a fee for these services.

A PIECE OF ADVICE:  DO NOT MISS WORK FOR MEDICAL REASONS WITHOUT A DOCTOR’s REPORT SUPPLEMENTING THE NEED TO TAKE SOME TIME OFF TO PURSUE MEDICAL TREATMENT!  Disability benefit programs all require medical evidence in support of whatever benefit is being sought after.

When it comes to California residents, there’s a small percentage of every employee’s paycheck that is deducted and put into a special disability insurance fund. If you cannot perform your regular work duties and suddenly find yourself out of work due to your conditions and you are not receiving any other type of similar benefits, then you might be able to receive these funds.

Of course, if you do not meet certain disability requirements or cannot substantiate these claims, do not worry, as there are still a few programs out there to all Americans that can assist you while you’re dealing with your illnesses and being without an income. SNAP benefits will give you a hand if you have a low income, TANF (temporary assistance for needy families), a program that also benefits low-income families, and Unemployment benefits provide assistance if you are involuntarily unemployed but are still looking for employment in the near future. Some of these are rather temporary, but can definitely help you. It’s not easy navigating all of the various requirements for these programs, which is why a disability law firm can be there to guide you and meet the correct deadlines for all of them.

No matter the issue you are facing, we are here to help you. Call Gold Country Workers’ Comp Center at our toll-free number 877-233-8399 or (530) 362 7188 for a free consultation today. Early intervention works, so do not hesitate to pick up the phone even if you have any questions.  Getting an early understanding of the possible benefits available to those with medical conditions that interfere with work is very crucial.  We will help you through this transition and relieve any insecurities.

SSI in Sacramento with GCWC

SSI for Sacramento; Applying for SSI

SSI in Sacramento with GCWC

If you are thinking of filing for SSI in Sacramento look no further than Gold Country Workers’ Comp Center. Our attorneys are professionals who are equipped to manage Social Security Disability claims, SSI claims as well as other disability programs available for residents of California.

For example, “CalWORKS” is a program of benefit payments and employment assistance for those who are partially disabled and have limited income. Participation in an employment services program may be required. There are private insurance sources that automatically include some disability benefits but whose policies vary on how they consider a disability and how they define the disabled.

In California, it may be important to note that a small percentage of your paycheck is deducted and paid into a special disability insurance fund, called State Disability Insurance. This will pay you disability benefits if you cannot perform your regular work due to any medical reason and are not receiving comparable benefits elsewhere.

A lawyer can help you get SSI, SS Disability or Workers’ Compensation benefits or other benefits in Sacramento by guiding you to a program that better fits your needs and determine which one you will more than likely qualify for. Each program has pros, cons, and benefits, and sometimes there’s a possibility to qualify for more than one at a time.

In order to win a Social Security Disability claim (whether that is for SSI or SSDI), it normally requires a lot more work and effort than other programs. Unfortunately, showing documentation that you were diagnosed with a debilitating illness is not nearly enough. In almost all cases, Social Security will still investigate whether this deters you from working various jobs that the Dept. of Labor says are available even with the medical conditions your medical file establish s that you have.  That is, the SSA will still require you to produce medical proof of your inability to work at any job covered by the Dept. of Labor using its definition of functional job demands, including minimum wage work requiring you to deal with a myriad of stress-inducing questions and forms to fill out, which is why having a lawyer by your side is not only advantageous but a great support system.

But Social Security Disability is available to all United States citizens who have enough earnings history. If your earning history is not enough, you may still qualify for SSI benefits based on the same medical showing.  If you have questions about whether you qualify for benefits, you should contact an SSI attorney in Sacramento as soon as possible. It doesn’t cost you any upfront money to hire one, and it’s generally recommended to get the process started as soon as you’re out of work. An attorney can help you at any stage from the application process all the way to a hearing if necessary.

Attorneys Kim LaValley and Kyle Adamson of Gold Country Workers’ Comp Center have worked for many years on behalf of their clients pursuing Social Security benefits and have an excellent record in winning their cases. They have received praise for their work from many specialists in the field, including witnesses called by the government to testify against their clients. Please call us for a consultation at
