Unless you were born with a disabling condition, no one ever expects to acquire a disability later in life. Nonetheless, many Americans become disabled due to a serious injury or illness. This can put an individual in quite a predicament because they are no longer able to live life as they once did. Additionally, they are unable to return to work, which can present many financial challenges.

Social Security disability programs were designed to provide benefits to individuals unable to replace lost income or cover the basic costs of living due to a disabling injury or illness. The SSA has a definition of what it deems a disability, and, if an individual meets the requirements, they could qualify for SSD benefits. At the Disability Rights Law Center, we understand that the application process can be complex. Thus, our law firm is dedicated to helping individuals in Los Angeles successfully navigate this process.
