My little rant on social security lawyer
You must have been employed for five out of the previous ten years as a mimimum. That employment must have been with a position that had you contributing to Social Security. To be eligible for disability and receive social security benefits, you cannot be older than the Social Security Retirement age. Last, but not least, your injury needs to be such that you will not be able to join the workforce again for a minimum of 12 months. The Social Security Administration does not extend benefits to individuals with partial or short term disabilities.
