Explore Your Eligibility for Government Benefits

If you find yourself unable to work due to a disability resulting from an accident, illness, or any type of physical or mental impairment, you may be eligible for federal benefits through Social Security. Our team would be honored to help you navigate the complex application process for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program.

To begin, we can figure out which assistance program will be best for you:

• Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) is a federal program that provides benefits based on disability and work credits. To qualify for SSDI benefits, you must meet Social Security’s disability criteria and must be “insured” due to contributions you’ve made on your earnings or earnings made by a spouse or parent.
• Supplemental Security Income (SSI) is a different type of program that provides benefits based on age/disability and income. In Nevada, the state pays an optional state supplement to SSI recipients who are elderly or blind and to people with disabilities only under limited circumstances, such as being part of a couple with an elderly or blind partner.

Evaluating whether you qualify for benefits paid by Social Security can be difficult, which is why you should let our professional SSDI lawyers handle that process for you. We want what’s best for you, which means finding the best way to get the most benefits possible in your name.
