The Social Security Disability Insurance (SSD) program is available to Americans who are too disabled to work. However, those seeking help from the program must provide specific information and follow certain procedures. Your entitlement to an award of SSD benefits should not be taken for granted. Kingston NY social security attorneys can help those seeking SSD benefits to receive the assistance they need. The law firm of Ryan Roach and Ryan has expertise in dealing with SSD claims and appeals.

Understanding the SSD Program

The Social Security Act established a system of old-age benefits for workers, benefits for victims of industrial accidents, unemployment insurance, aid for dependent mothers and children, the blind, and the physically handicapped.

The SSD program is an important element of the Social Security system, especially when considering that one in four Americans will become disabled before they are old enough to retire. Those who become disabled before reaching the retirement age may be eligible tor SSD benefits.

Benefits may be available to those who are unable to work due to a wide variety of physical and mental health conditions, including but not limited to the following:
-Neck and/or back pain
-Heart disease
-Complications from Diabetes

-Multiple Sclerosis
-Psychological conditions
