Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between SSDI and SSI benefits?
SSDI is based on your prior work history and contributions to Social Security, while SSI is a needs-based program for individuals with limited income and resources. Parmele Law Firm can evaluate which program you may qualify for based on your personal circumstances.
How long does the Social Security disability process typically take?
The timeline varies widely depending on whether your initial application is approved or denied. Some cases are resolved within months, while others involving appeals may take two years or longer. The firm will give you a realistic timeframe based on your specific situation.
Do I need a lawyer to apply for Social Security disability?
You can apply without legal representation, but having an attorney significantly improves your chances of approval, especially on appeal. Parmele Law Firm's experience with Social Security cases helps ensure your application includes all necessary medical evidence and properly addresses how your condition affects your ability to work.
