Protecting the Rights of Injured and Disabled Workers.

Social Security Disability Lawyers ● SSI Benefits Attorneys
Pennsylvania Disability Claim Law Firm

At the law firm of Kunkel & Fink, LLP, in Pittsburgh and Uniontown, Pennsylvania, we have handled thousands of Social Security Disability claims for our clients.  The Social Security Disability and Supplemental Security Income claimants who come to our attorneys for help have usually been denied benefits.

Social Security Disability (SSD) is an insurance policy you paid for if you earned money and paid into the Social Security system.  It is a safety net for working people who can no longer work.

Supplemental Security Income (SSI) is a needs-based program for disabled adults and children.  The disability requirements are the same as SSD, but the person making the claim may never have been able to work.

Why do you need a Social Security Disability lawyer to appeal your denial of benefits?  Experienced SSD and SSI lawyers, like those at the Kunkel & Fink law firm, know the law and the system well.  We know how to present your case in a clear, concise and compelling manner with the information required.

SSD and SSI cases are based on available facts.  Our disability rights attorneys will:

• Gather the necessary medical records
• Ask doctors for additional information as needed
• Present your case at hearings, at appeals and in court
• Makes sure your rights are protected

In many cases, the Social Security Administration will have vocational experts who will testify that you could work – even when they are unfamiliar with your particular case.  Our lawyers will know your case well and will be there to question those and other possible witnesses who do not know the facts of your disability.

For more information about Social Security Disability and Supplemental Security Income, see our SSD & SSI FAQs page.
