PETOSKEY SOCIAL SECURITY DISABILITY ATTORNEY

The determination of disability at the Social Security Administration involves a complex mixture of legal, medical, employment, and vocational information. The adjudication and implementation of disability benefits requires vast amounts of agency resources and staff within a complex bureaucracy. Similarly, there is a vast body of regulations, rulings, and case law regarding social security disability. As a result, information provided in a short article such as this should not be relied upon for any important purpose. The Social Security Administration (SSA) [1] advises that interested parties contact the Social Security Administration for up-to-date and accurate information. Similarly, due to the complexity of the processes and determinations made by the Social Security Administration, organizations such as the American Bar Association and NOSSCR advise that those involved in application for benefits or adjudication seek competent counsel. What is Social Security’s definition of “disability”? Generally, it’s being unable to work because of a verifiable mental or physical impairment expected to result in death, or has lasted, or is expected last, for at least 12 months.
