Sacramento Social Security Law

Social Security Benefits Attorney

Sacramento Social Security Law – GCWC

Sacramento Social Security Law doesn’t have to be a headache if you have a good attorney by your side. For some people, a catastrophic injury or a work-related accident can leave someone disabled, whether that is a mental impairment or a physical one or a combination of the two. This results in having to drastically reduce the amount of time they dedicate to work, or even have to leave work altogether. We all primarily live off of wages to survive, which is why it’s crucial for you to have an understanding of Sacramento Social Security Law and how it can help you when you’re in this situation.

It won’t cost you more to hire an attorney as soon as possible, since all fees are a fixed percentage and are dependent on your firm winning the case. Having an attorney from the very beginning can mean a more efficient procedure right from the start. If you’re disabled, there are many things you already have to keep track of and worry about, but Social Security still has very specific rules and deadlines when it comes to submitting evidence and filing applications and appeals.

In fact, hiring a law firm to assist you with this could mean clearing up any doubts or questions you had about the process or guiding you through your options. Many people don’t know this, but Social Security offers two basic disability programs to which general members of the public can apply: SSI and SSDI. Both will provide monthly payments and medical benefits as long as the claimant who filed is eligible for either (or sometimes both). SSDI pays much better and provides more comprehensive medical benefits, but not everyone qualifies for it depending on their work history. If in doubt about which to apply for, apply for both. You can apply for SSDI online but you must submit a written application to get SSI benefits to your local SSA district office. An attorney already knows the best ways to contact the local offices, so even when applying in the early stages of the procedures, there is still great benefit to hiring someone with experience.

California SSI with GCWC

Worker's Comp Lawyer

 

When is it a good time to file for a California SSI claim? The answer to this question varies a lot from individual claimant to claimant, but there are still many guidelines one has to follow to qualify for California SSI benefits.

Disabilities, chronic illnesses, and conditions can affect everyone in different ways. For one, someone could have suffered from an illness from a very young age while others develop one over time or a traumatic injury triggered the development of one. Regardless, you must establish the severity of your condition and speak to a medical professional about your ability to work. They may professionally advise you to stop working, go on bed rest, have someone assist you in your home, etc. At this point, it might be a good idea to explore your options regarding supplemental income and health benefits.

The best time to file for Social Security Disability benefits is as soon as you are out of work due to your ailments. Even if you end up not qualifying or even if your claim ends up denied, many people think they have to wait over a certain time to file. If you file as soon as you are out of work, you can assist in gathering evidence over time while the claim is pending and cooperate with what Social Security asks of you. This could mean filling out questionnaires, going to evaluations, or simply answering questions over the phone.

Usually it’s in your best interest to have an attorney act as a middleman in this situation since they can provide a better buffer between you and the Social Security representatives. For example, before you answer their questions with vague or simple answers, a lawyer can better prepare and advise you on how best to answer the questions. That’s not to say that a lawyer will give you a specific answer that is sure to grant you California SSI benefits. As we’ve noted above, every case is different, but an attorney knows what Social Security is looking for. They can advise you to give them a certain amount of information in one aspect of your condition, or maybe recommend you refrain from giving too much information in another aspect. Every California SSI is extremely different, but the guidelines to qualify still remain the same.

California Disability Case

California Disability Case

California Disability Case with GCWC

Filing a California Disability Case can vary greatly from the claimant to claimant. The complexities of the individual case can make the outcome very different depending on what disabilities the person has, what their income status is, and what their prior work history was. You don’t have to wrap your head around trying to figure out the ins and outs of a California Disability Case from the beginning, though. You can hire an attorney to help you through the process no matter how complex you think the case might be.

For instance, depending on the intensity level of the job you worked prior to filing for disability, the way the outcome is determined may vary from case to case. Some people do light or sedentary work, like working on a computer or clerical duties. Others may have work experience dealing in labor or construction, making it medium or heavy work. This is then compared to the kinds of ailments you suffer from and how likely you are able to go back to what you’re experienced in doing. A laborer who suffered a severe back injury may not likely be able to do their previous work and may not end up only being able to do light or sedentary work. And depending on their age, the likelihood that they can be trained to do a job outside of what they have been used to doing for more than a decade is very low. Thus more than likely granting them disability benefits if the right kind of evidence is provided throughout the claim.

Social Security will try to make a determination within a few months of a claimant applying for benefits. A representative will want many documents filled out and will follow up with doctors, hospitals, and clinics the claimant has gone to for treatment of their conditions. If you are applying for a California Disability Case, it can be very stressful to do this on your own. Handling a busy schedule of attending doctors’ visits, organizing your medications, and overall looking after yourself is more than enough to deal with. Let a professional Attorney handle your disability claim so that you may not have to.

Gold Country Workers’ Comp is a law firm dedicated to not only assist people who were injured on the job but will also assist with peoples’ California Disability Case and get their clients the compensation they deserve. If you or someone you know is disabled and needs help with a claim, call (530) 362-7188 for a free consultation.

SSI Case with Gold Country

SSI Case with Gold Country

If you need some assistance filling for an SSI Case, there are many tools and resources you can probably find on your own. It can be overwhelming sifting through websites and documents trying to make rhyme or reason of how the process works and how you fit into it. While many Americans suffer through infections, broken bones, or other illnesses, some things are easier to recover from than others. Not everyone is so lucky and can live most of their lives with a disability or chronic illness whether they had since very young or developed it later on in life.

Social Security has a program American citizens can apply for which will grant them supplemental benefits while they are disabled. They do this with the implication that you are too impaired to go back to work for the foreseeable future. SSI, or Supplemental Security Income, works as a supplemental program for those looking to get Social Security Disability benefits but might not have the requirements for their main disability program (SSDI).

Having an attorney help you with your SSI Case is beneficial to you because it’s the right kind of support when filing for a claim. They can not only guide you into making sure you fill the appropriate documents efficiently, they can also let you know if there’s something that isn’t necessary for your case. That way you’re not expending more energy than necessary, which for a disabled person can mean a lot.

To qualify for SSI, you have to meet a certain income threshold. People who make very little income are able to receive these benefits once approved. That being said, applying for other government assistance, such as food stamps or Medicaid, won’t hurt your chances of getting approved, so if you need monetary assistance while you’re out of work, we recommend trying to look for other programs you qualify for.

When applying for an SSI Case, having an Attorney is almost always the smartest decision to make before doing anything else, as they have most likely seen a myriad of different cases and how to go about each one. Children can qualify for SSI if the household income meets the requirements, and when the child turns 18 they will need to most likely reapply or go through a review. No matter the case, an Attorney can do their best to guide you in the most appropriate way.

Disability Case in 2021 with GCWC

Disability Case in 2022; Disability Case in 2021

Disability Case in 2021 with GCWC

Do you need help filing a Disability Case in 2021? While some employers might offer some kind of temporary disability benefits when their worker has to be out of work for a prolonged period of time, these benefits do eventually have to cease. There are dozens of employers and insurance companies who don’t offer these kinds of benefits, either, and oftentimes someone who was either injured at their job or started developing a debilitating condition over time, have run out of options on how to support themselves.

This is why a Disability Case in 2021 becomes an option for many working citizens. If you have a medical condition that is keeping you from performing your normal job duties, and you get word from a medical professional that your condition will probably not get any better for several months, then you might want to consider calling an Attorney to help you file a claim.

If you are a California employee, there might be special programs for you. For example, a small percentage of every California employee’s paycheck is deducted and paid into a special disability insurance fund, called State Disability Insurance.   If you cannot work because of a medical condition, whether it is work related or not, you can apply for this benefit.  On the other hand, if you apply for Unemployment benefits, you have to certify you can do your regular work from a medical perspective AND be actively looking for work to continue receiving the benefits. There is also CalWORKS, which can help disabled people with limited income. And of course there’s people who carry their own disability insurance through private means.

Outside of California, all American citizens have the ability to apply for programs such as Social Security Disability benefits, Unemployment, and SNAP benefits. Some of these programs are income-dependent, but sometimes you can apply for more than one at a time.

Some applicants find that the reason they are out of work will be temporary, but in the case of some peoples, their conditions can get progressively worse and will have to stop working or looking for work.

If you wonder whether you are eligible for a Disability Case in 2021, then contact us.  Besides the disability programs mentioned above, you may also qualify for for Social Security Disability benefits as your best option. The monthly monetary benefits along with having Medicare or Medicaid/MediCal can help greatly when you are without a monthly income and in need of healthcare. After all, a disabled person might need to see several specialists in the span of a month, so the combination of health and at least some monetary benefits is crucial.

Gold Country Workers’ Comp Center will diligently work on your Disability Case in 2021 and get you the benefits you deserve. Please call us at 530-362-7188 for a free consultation.
