The firm of Pond Lehocky Stern Giordano represents disabled persons throughout Pennsylvania, Delaware and New Jersey. Our success in the field of Social Security Disability is largely due to effectively working with medical providers on individual cases and educating doctors about disability claims and supporting medical information.

Our mission is to help doctors and other treating professionals recognize candidates for SSD or SSI and understand the type of medical documentation needed to secure sorely needed benefits.

Our Social Security Disability Handbook, a thorough but easy-to-understand reference, has been distributed to practitioners statewide. We would be happy to provide a free copy.

Identifying Candidates for Disability Benefits

Your patient may be eligible for Social Security Disability if he or she:

  • Have severe physical and/or mental impairments
  • Was working and paying taxes until the injury or illness
  • Will be unable to work a full-time job, in your medical opinion, for 12 months or more
