Disability Benefits Lawyer Akron
Disability and the Older Worker
If you are unable to work because of a medical condition and are aged 62 or close to it, you may be wondering if the hassle of trying to qualify for disability benefits is really worth it. After all, you could just take early retirement and start receiving benefits almost immediately.
The problem with early retirement is that your benefit amount gets reduced, significantly. There are complicated Medicare issues to think about as well.
At Shifrin Newman Smith Inc., we can help you understand your options and make the right choices. We are passionate about helping people, and we have 25 years of experience handling claims for government disability benefits in Ohio.
We are here to help. If we don't win, you don't pay any attorney fee. For a free consultation with an attorney, call us at 877-230-5500 or contact us online.
At My Age, Is It Worth It to Apply for Disability Benefits?
Our answer to this question is generally a resounding YES! It is definitely worth it to apply for Social Security Disability (DIB) benefits. In fact, you should consider filing for disability benefits and early retirement at the same time.
You deserve the full amount of benefits that you've already paid for over the course of your lifetime and this is a way to get them now without being penalized. If you qualify as disabled, you'll be able to take early retirement at the full benefit rate you're entitled to.
Why settle for less?
Our only goal is your success. If our lawyers can't help you obtain benefits, you don't have to pay an attorney fee. There's nothing to lose and everything to gain. To schedule a free consultation, call us in Akron or Cleveland, Ohio, at 877-230-5500 or contact us online.
