How Physical Disabilities Qualify for SSDI & SSI

To qualify for disability benefits, the Social Security Administration (SSA) requires proof that your condition prevents you from working for at least 12 months or is expected to result in death.

We work with your doctors and medical providers to document your condition, treatment history, and functional limitations, giving you the strongest possible case.

Common Physical Disabilities & Chronic Conditions

Back & Neck Injuries

Chronic pain, herniated discs, spinal stenosis, and mobility issues often keep people from lifting, standing, or sitting for long periods — making full-time work impossible.

Arthritis & Joint Disorders

Severe arthritis can cause constant pain, inflammation, and reduced range of motion in the hands, knees, or hips, interfering with even simple daily tasks.

MS is unpredictable and may cause fatigue, muscle weakness, vision problems, or neurological impairment that makes consistent employment impossible.

Cancer

From aggressive forms requiring surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation to chronic cancer-related conditions, treatment and recovery can make sustaining work unrealistic.

Diabetes & Complications

Diabetes can lead to neuropathy, vision loss, kidney failure, and circulation problems, all of which may qualify you for SSD or SSI.

Other Chronic Health Conditions We Handle

  • Heart Disease and Cardiovascular Issues
  • Autoimmune Disorders
  • Chronic Pain Syndromes
  • Severe Orthopedic Injuries

If your condition prevents you from working, you may be entitled to benefits even if it’s not on the SSA’s official “Blue Book” list.

Appealing a Denial for Physical Disability Claims

Unfortunately, most SSDI and SSI claims are denied initially — even for serious physical impairments. If you’ve been denied, you are not alone.


You only have 60 days to appeal your denial. Missing this deadline can mean starting over.


We represent clients from the first denial to the hearing in front of an administrative law judge.
