Newark Social Security Disability Lawyers

If you are disabled and wanting to apply for social security disability benefits you should know that the social security administration outlines a specific list of disabilities that it uses to determine if a person is disabled and eligible for disability benefits. Your Newark social security disability lawyer or advocate can help you better understand if your specific disability falls within the guidelines. The list contains impairments for all of the body and its major systems, the impairments listed are all considered severe disabilities that would render a person unable to perform any type of gainful work. If the disability is within a child under 18 years of age, the listed impairments would be cause for severe limitations within the child.

Most all of the impairments that are listed on the listing of impairments are permanent disabilities or are ones that will result in death. If your specific disability does not appear on the listing of impairments, you will then have to prove and show to the social security administration that your disability has or expected to remain for a minimum of one year. The listing of impairments comes in two parts, one part is the criteria for those who are adults and 18 years of age or older. Some of the criteria in the first part can be used in determining disability in those 18 years of age and younger if the condition has the same sort of affects on both adults and children.

Again, it is important that you contact a Newark disability lawyer or advocate to help you understand all specified guidelines within the list of impairments, click here for your free evaluation and be on the road to better understanding of how the social security administration works.

The second part of the listing of impairments consists of medial criteria in addition to the first part, for those who are 18 years of age and younger. The reason for this second part is that the first part does not always consider the affects that a condition can have on those who are younger. For example, there are some conditions that only affect younger people and some that have different types of effects on younger people than it will adults. Part two is used for determining disability in children, if they cannot use it or the condition is not listed then they will refer to part one.

It is extremely important to remember that even if your specific disability is not listed on the listing of impairments, it does not mean in any way that you are not disabled. This will simply mean that there is to be more investigation into the determination of rather or not you are deemed disabled by their rules and regulations.
