Social Security for Children Lawyer in Pittsburgh, PA

Social Security for Children Overview

Raising a child requires a substantial financial commitment, in any circumstance. If your child is disabled, however, the costs of caring for and supporting him or her are greatly increased. If you have a child with a disability, it may be possible to obtain Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits to help meet your child’s needs.

At the Law Offices of Kenneth Hiller, PLLC, we help families in Pittsburgh and the surrounding areas of Pennsylvania apply for and obtain much-needed SSI benefits for children. If your application for children’s SSI benefits has been denied, we will help you through the appeals process. With more than 25 years of experience, you can rely on us to take you through each step of the SSI process.

Children’s SSI benefits are based on how the child’s medical impairment (disability) affects him or her. If a mental, emotional or physical problem prevents your child from functioning normally, SSI benefits may be available. For example, a qualifying condition may be one that affects a child’s:

• Emotional stability
• Physical functions
• Ability to socialize
• Ability to care for his or her own personal needs

A child may qualify for SSI even when parents have not paid enough Social Security taxes to qualify for Social Security Disability (SSD) benefits. When you visit our Pittsburgh office, we sit down with you and help you understand the guidelines that determine the amount of SSI your child can receive. We use our experience and skill to maximize the amount available, whatever your circumstances.
