Social Security Disability

Southeast Texas SSDI and SSI Attorneys

At the Southeast Texas law firm of Waldman Smallwood, P.C., our attorneys help people obtain benefits through the Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) program or the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program. Social Security Disability Insurance is a federal benefit that provides disability insurance for workers who have paid into the system during their working lives.

If you become disabled and are no longer able to work, you are entitled to the benefits of the insurance. Contact us online or call toll-free at 800-833-9151 for a free initial consultation. From our offices in Beaumont, Nederland and Houston, we represent clients throughout Southeast Texas.

Was Your SSDI or SSI Claim Rejected?

Many Social Security Disability claims are initially rejected. This is not because the claim is invalid; it usually means evidence of the disability was not fully presented. Any illness or accident that prevents you from working can be a qualifying disability under the Social Security programs. Problems such as heart disease, psychiatric disorders and neurological illness can also cause disability and make you eligible for Social Security benefits. If your initial claim was rejected by Social Security, we may be able to help you.

How Our Lawyers Help

At our law firm, we compile the medical records and use them to develop a strong argument for your case. We attend all administrative hearings on your behalf, presenting the evidence of your disability. Of course, the eventual determination is made by the Social Security Administration, depending on the severity of your disability and your age, education, and work experience, but we make sure their decision is based on every aspect of your story.

Understand Your Rights under Social Security Disability

During the SSDI or SSI appeals process, we help disabled workers get the resources they need to pay their bills and put their lives back together. If you have become disabled and cannot work, you have a right to governmental benefits.
