Challenges of receiving SSD benefits for children

For many adults in Ohio, receiving approval for Social Security Disability benefits can be challenging enough. For disabled children, the process is even more rigorous. Our law firm understands that parents need these benefits to help pay for medical expenses related to their children's disabilities. Although the process may be difficult, it is not impossible when you have an experience Social Security lawyer on your side.

The Social Security Administration is not quick to approve a child's claim for SSD benefits because of several factors. In many cases, the parent's income is too high to qualify, even though they may struggle to pay for the medical care involved with a serious disability. In addition, there is the belief that children often have the opportunity to outgrow their disabilities and make a full recovery, whereas the elderly don't typically have that advantage.
