Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between SSDI and SSI?
SSDI, or Social Security Disability Insurance, is based on your work history and the Social Security taxes you have paid. SSI, or Supplemental Security Income, is a need-based program for individuals with limited income and resources, regardless of work history.
What should I do if my disability claim was denied?
A denial is not the end of the process. You have the right to appeal, and many claims that are initially denied are eventually approved at the reconsideration or hearing level. Disability Law Center can help you file an appeal.
How long does the Social Security disability process take in Mississippi?
Timelines vary, but initial decisions can take three to six months, and if a hearing before an Administrative Law Judge is required, the wait can extend to a year or more depending on the local office backlog.
Does Disability Law Center charge upfront fees?
Disability attorneys typically work on a contingency basis, meaning they are only paid if you win your case. Fees are regulated by the Social Security Administration and are generally capped at a percentage of back pay.
Where is the Gulfport office of Disability Law Center located?
This office is located at 266 Debuys Road in Gulfport, Mississippi. You can reach them by phone at (228) 868-8888.
Can I apply for disability benefits if I have never worked?
If you have little or no work history, you may still qualify for SSI benefits based on your financial need and disability status, even if you do not qualify for SSDI.
