The State of New York has designed specific laws to protect and assist those unable or support themselves because of a mental or physical disability or injury. The Social Security Administration oversees the benefits program these laws outline.
Receiving social security benefits is not complicated at face value. The state requires you to have worked a sufficient number of years. While working, you must have paid sufficient money into Social Security via taxes.
Oftentimes, there is a dispute regarding what people view as "sufficient" instead of what the state does. Yet other times, other misunderstandings or clerical errors in documents cause cases to be denied. A disability claims lawyer can help appeal cases that should have been approved because they have a legitimate grounding in the law when these sorts of complications arise.
In New York, the amount of compensation you are awarded is determined by how much you have paid into the Social Security "pool." Therefore, paying more means you will be qualified for a higher amount of compensation. In order to substantiate this, the State of New York requires you to provide a record of earnings.
This is where things typically get really tricky.
These records require complicated calculations in order to be submitted successfully. While it is possible to do them on your own, many people make mistakes. Attorney reviews are extremely common. Partnering with an attorney off the bat would eliminate the need for this review and streamline the process.
