Supplemental Security Income

Milwaukee Supplemental Security Income Lawyers

Individuals unable to work can obtain benefits through Supplemental Security Income (SSI). We have an extensive background representing individuals who have a disability, as well as clients considered impoverished who do not qualify for welfare.

At Welcenbach Law Offices, S.C., we understand that everyone's situation is unique. For more than 30 years, our attorneys have tailored their approach to clients' specific circumstances. We are ready to help you. Contact us today to schedule a free initial consultation and discover whether you or your loved one qualifies for benefits through SSI.

Who is Eligible for SSI?

Our law firm's attorneys take pride in clearly explaining how individuals qualify for benefits through the government program. During a free initial consultation, we will carefully explain the specific criteria, such as

• Must have limited income
• Must be a U.S. citizen, national or an eligible immigrant
• Must have limited resources, such a disability keeping you from working

Individuals who qualify do not need a work history to show they have paid into Social Security. Rather, SSI is a government program that covers basic needs for individuals unable to work.

For example, SSI includes compensation for food, clothing and shelter, but the amount each person get adjusts monthly according to their specific needs or circumstances. If someone obtains charitable donations from a church or another source, this would be counted as income and the amount received that month would be less.

Why Do I Need an Attorney?

The application process to obtain benefits through SSI is complicated. Often, individuals who qualify for SSI coverage are denied when important details are overlooked or left off the application. We will make this as seamless as possible by carefully preparing you for the detailed process, which starts with an interview by the Social Security Administration.

The attorneys at our law firm will also help you prepare all the necessary documents, including your monthly income and expenses. We will also carefully explain your level of disability or reason you are unable to work, as well as your potential to be employed in the future.
