Kansas City / Missouri / United States
It is a frustrating feeling to work hard your whole life to support yourself and your family only to suffer a debilitating injury or illness that cuts your career short. Its even more frustrating when Social Security, the government safety-net that you have been contributing to for years, denies your claim to collect Social Security Disability benefits. At the Law Offices of Sharon J. Meyers, in Kansas City, Missouri, we understand how the frustration caused by not being able to go to work is compounded by the stress of facing mounting bills and not having sufficient income to pay them. Our first message is not to panic if your initial application for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI) has been denied. Some 80 percent of first-time applicants are denied benefits by the Social Security Administration.
