Our Garden City Social Security Disability Attorneys Will Fight for You and Your Family
If you can’t work for at least a year because of a disabling condition, you could face financial ruin without assistance. Thankfully, the Social Security Administration (SSA) offers monthly payments and other benefits for disabled individuals who find themselves in this difficult situation. However, claiming these benefits is often easier said than done.
The SSA denies many initial claims because of a lack of evidence, missed deadlines, or other issues. When you turn to Bader Scott, our Garden City SSD attorneys can help you avoid these common mistakes, increasing the odds that your claim will be approved. If you have already filed your claim and received a denial, it’s not too late. We can also help you file an appeal.
We have extensive experience in the SSD claims process, and we are ready to fight for you and the benefits you need to live a fulfilling life. Your attorney will take the lead on your case, so you won’t have to go through a case manager or paralegal to get answers to your questions. We will also send you regular updates on your case, so you are never left in the dark.
How Our Attorneys Can Help With Your SSD Claim
You can try to handle your SSD claim without a lawyer, but we don’t recommend it. The SSA requires extensive paperwork and medical evidence of your disability, and it can be difficult to understand the requirements and ensure you comply without legal assistance.
Our Garden City SSD attorneys have extensive experience in getting disability claims approved for our clients. We will help you by:
- Determining which disability program you qualify for
- Building your case, including gathering all necessary evidence to prove your disabling condition and your qualifications for receiving benefits
- Ensuring you meet all required deadlines
- Communicating with the SSA on your behalf and fulfilling any additional requests for information or evidence
- Helping you prepare for your consultative exam (CE) if the SSA requests one
- Helping you file an appeal if the SSA denies your initial claim
- Representing you in your Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) hearing
- Taking your case all the way to the Appeals Court or federal court, if necessary
- Answering all your questions and addressing your concerns in language you can understand
You don’t have to go through this challenging process alone. Let us give you the peace of mind that your claim is being handled by well-trained, competent legal professionals.
How Do Our Garden City SSD Lawyers Get Paid?
If you’re fighting for disability benefits, you likely don’t have a lot of extra money in your bank account that you can use to pay a lawyer. That’s okay—you don’t have to pay us anything upfront to handle your case.
Our Garden City Social Security disability benefits attorneys work for a portion of the backpay we recover for you. You only pay us if you recover benefits.
You have nothing to lose and potentially everything to gain by letting us assist with your claim. Contact Bader Scott today to get started.

What’s the Difference Between SSDI and SSI?
The SSA offers two benefits programs for disabled individuals: Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI). The qualifications for each program are different. In general:
- To receive SSDI benefits, you must have a documented work history in jobs covered by Social Security. You must also have a disabling condition that is expected to last for at least one year or result in your death. The SSA Blue Book lists conditions that commonly qualify for benefits, but you may qualify even if your condition is not listed.
- To receive SSI benefits, you must be over 65, blind, or disabled and have little or no income or assets.
Both programs offer monthly financial payments. The precise amount you receive will depend on various factors, but the SSA reports the average monthly payment for SSDI claimants in 2025 is $1,580. As of April 2025, SSI claimants in Georgia receive an average of $687.12 per month, per the SSA.
In addition to financial benefits, SSDI and SSI claimants also often receive access to federal programs such as Medicare, Medicaid, and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP).
