The Disability Evaluation Process

Social Security Disability Determination

Do You Qualify for Benefits?

Contact the Social Security Disability Law Firm, P.A. for a free consultation if you are filing for or have been turned down for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI or SSI). Attorney Chris R. Borgia will personally handle your case and use his extensive knowledge to submit or appeal your claim. We represent clients in Miami-Dade, Broward, and West Palm Beach counties, and throughout Florida. Call toll-free at       1-866-693-4742.

The graphic below shows the Social Security Disability determination process. You must meet several criteria to eligible for benefits, including:

  • Not gainfully employed at the time of filing
  • Having a severe impairment as defined by the Social Security Administration
  • Having an impairment that will last (or has lasted) 12 months or more, or which will result in death
  • Unable to work at your former job
  • Unable to perform other generally available work

If your SSA disability evaluation results in denial of benefits, we can help you throughout the appeals process. Contact us with any questions.
