types of disabling impairments | chicago disability attorney

The Social Security Administration lists a large number ofconditions, known as the “Listing of Impairments, ” for bothchildren and adults, that can meet its definition of disability.

To qualify, the condition must be backed by medical proof that a Social Security Disability applicant will be unable to work for a period of more than 12 months.

The SSA reviews each applicant’s submission on a case-by-case basis,and many applicants have been awarded benefits when multiple

impairments, taken together, meet the SSA’s definition of disability.

The SSA will consider you disabled if:

- You cannot do the work you did before;

- It decides you cannot adjust to other workbecause of your medical condition; and

- Your disability has lasted or is expected tolast for at least one year or result in death.

We work on a contingency fee basis, which means no money up front and no hourlyfees. Our fees must be approved by the Social Security Administration (SSA) and

comply with SSA guidelines. We file our fee agreement with the SSA in every case.
