Ghitterman, Ghitterman & Feld Relentlessly Protecting California Workers' Rights Since 1956

Social Security Disability Attorney Fresno, CA 

In Need of a Fresno Social Security Disability Lawyer?

The State of California has several government-sponsored programs that offer financial compensation to people injured or disabled in accidents, including Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI), Supplemental Security Income (SSI), and state workers’ compensation.

About The Social Security Administration

The Social Security Administration (SSA) supplements the income of permanently disabled individuals who make less than the designated amount each month. The SSA could determine that you are “disabled” when your medical condition prevents you from performing basic tasks at work for at least a year.

How Does SSDI Work?

Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) is funded by the Social Security tax fund. Those who qualify for SSDI in Fresno, CA should have enough credits in their job history to qualify for monthly payments.

Applicants applying for SSDI must have paid Social Security taxes on their wages for a certain amount of time to qualify for benefits. Younger applicants under the age of 22 can use their parents’ work credits with their application.
