Indianapolis Social Security Disability Attorney
There is no need to feel that you are asking for a "government handout" if you seek disability benefits. Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) is similar to other types of insurance: you pay in while you are healthy and working so that you can draw benefits in a time of need.
Are You Eligible?
If you have been told by a doctor that you have a disability that is likely to last 12 months or longer, you may be entitled to Social Security disability benefits.
You have paid into Social Security as long as you have been receiving paychecks, precisely to prepare for the difficult situation that you now face. Whether your disability is expected to be temporary or permanent, you may be eligible for SSDI benefits if your doctor says you will be unable to work for 12 months or longer.
