Social Security Disability Lawyer in Medford
Find an Attorney Who Can Help You with Your SSD Benefits Claim
Often, accidents can result in permanent disability. This can limit an individual's ability to return to work or secure future employment. When this is the case, you may be eligible for Social Security Disability (SSD) benefits. SSD benefits are designed to help people who are not able to support themselves or their families due to disability. However, because there are such strict eligibility requirements, SSD benefits claims are often denied. This can happen even when you are eligible. In fact, most first-time claims for SSD benefits are denied in the state of Massachusetts and throughout the country. If your SSD benefits claim has been denied, or you are just beginning the process and need assistance, it's wise to seek the help of a Medford Social Security Disability attorney who has experience navigating this complicated process.

Who is Eligible for Social Security Disability Benefits in Massachusetts?
In order to qualify for SSD benefits in Medford and throughout Massachusetts, you must meet certain strict requirements. It's important to be aware of these requirements before beginning the claims filing process.
In Massachusetts, you may be eligible for SSD benefits if:
- You are unable to work because of your disability
- You are expected to be unable to work for 12 months or more
Once you have submitted your application for SSD benefits, Massachusetts' Disability Determination Services (DDS) will make a decision on your claim.
