At The Law Center For Social Security Disability, Shawnee Social Security Disability attorney Gary Wayne Jones has been helping clients qualify for and receive the benefits they are entitled to for more than thirty years. If you are feeling frustrated and overwhelmed by the Social Security disability process, we can help.
If you are disabled or injured and can not work, you may be entitled to receive Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) benefits or Social Security Income (SSI) benefits.
Determining which Social Security disability programs you qualify for can be confusing. Additionally, proving that you qualify for benefits can be difficult.
Most first-time claims are denied and many are denied again during the reconsideration phase. Statistics show that your chances of approval are far greater when you have experienced legal representation.
Additionally, if you are seeking assistance for Social Security Income, consider consulting a Shawnee Social Security Income lawyer to maximize your chances of success.

Comparing SSDI And SSI Benefits
Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) pays benefits to workers who have become disabled if they have paid enough premiums to qualify. Premiums are paid monthly by employees when their employer withholds FICA from their paychecks. If you have paid in long enough and have a qualifying disability that prevents you from working, you may qualify for SSDI benefits.
Supplemental Security Income (SSI) pays benefits to severely disabled people with very limited income and resources. To qualify for SSI, a person must either be ineligible to receive SSDI or are only able to receive a very small amount of SSDI. The SSI program also pays benefits to people who are blind and adults with limited income who are 65 or older.
