Expert Social Security Disability Lawyers

Conveniently located in historic Rockville, MD 

Typically when people think of Social Security benefits they think of retirement benefits. However, Social Security also provides a security blanket for people who are injured and unable to work. Bromberg Rosenthal LLC has significant experience helping clients obtain Social Security Disability benefits.

Understanding Social Security Disability

Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) is designed to provide income to people who are injured and have been unable to work for more than twelve months. In addition to handling cases involving Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI), we also represent clients seeking Supplemental Security Income (SSI). SSI provides income to people who are disabled and unable to work, but have not paid into the Social Security trust fund.

Why Do I Need a Social Security Disability Lawyer?

Unfortunately, most people who apply for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI or Supplemental Security Income (SSI) are denied. Our firm has more than 35 years of experience helping injured people obtain the Social Security Disability benefits they have earned. We routinely assist our clients with initial application for Social Security Disability benefits as well as those who have been previously denied by filing a Social Security Disability appeal with an Administrative Law Judge.

Benefits for You and Your Family Members

In addition to the disabled individual, certain family members may qualify for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) benefits based on the disabled worker’s earnings record. Some of the family members who may qualify for Social Security Disability benefits include:

• Your unmarried children under age 18, or under age 19 if attending high school full-time
• Your unmarried child 18 years of age or older, when that child was disabled before reaching age 22
• Your spouse age 62 or older
• Your spouse of any age who is caring for a child of yours under age 16, or who is disabled and also receiving disability checks

Additionally, people who qualify for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI) become eligible for Medicare, including Part A (hospital benefits) and Part B (medical benefits) once they have received SSDI benefits for twenty-four months.
