Social Security Benefits Lawyer in Pittsburgh, PA

Social Security Benefits Overview

Many people who receive Social Security Disability (SSD) benefits want to return to work as soon as possible. However, they may be concerned that employment will jeopardize their continued eligibility for benefits. At the Law Offices of Kenneth Hill, PLLC, we advise clients in Pittsburgh and the surrounding areas on their options regarding work and SSD. We have focused our practice exclusively on this area of law for more than 25 years, and use our knowledge and experience to help our clients make informed decisions regarding their employment options.

Unbeknownst to many, the Social Security Administration (SSA) has several programs for those who wish to return to work. These programs are designed to provide a trial period for recuperating workers and do not negatively impact their continued or future eligibility for benefits. If a person is able to return to work, he or she will most likely be receiving more money than by staying on SSD benefits. Therefore, clients should consult with their doctor about the possibility of returning to work.

If, however, a person is unable to return to work right away, our firm can provide assistance with applying for or extending SSD benefits. The inability to successfully hold down a job can significantly strengthen your case for the SSA. We have also seen clients who have received benefits for the unsuccessful work attempt period.

Generally we advise our clients to try to return to work if possible. As far as SSD benefits are concerned, there is no downside to seeking employment. Our lawyers are always ready to assist you in returning to SSD benefits if necessary.
