Frequently Asked Questions

Can I file for Social Security disability if I was wrongfully terminated?

Yes, these are separate matters. You can pursue an employment claim while filing for disability benefits. The firm handles both to ensure your rights are protected in both contexts.

How might my employment status affect my disability application?

The SSA considers your recent work history, earnings record, and whether you currently work. The firm explains how your employment record supports or complicates your disability claim.

What employment protections exist while I pursue disability benefits?

Federal law protects you from discrimination based on disability. The firm ensures your employer complies with these protections and can pursue claims if your rights are violated.
