SSI and Children’s Cases

Dirk May Children, Denial, Help, Lawyers, Medical, Social Security, Social Security Disability, Supplemental Security Income


Yes, I represent people in Children’s SSI cases.

Not many lawyers do these type of cases.

They are difficult cases to win.

Maybe because Judges do not like the cases, or they are used to seeing adult cases that focus on ability to work.

In a child’s case you must prove marked limitations in 2 areas out of 6, or extreme limitations in 1 area out of 6.

The areas cover physical limitations and mental or emotional limitations.

Just being in special education classes is not enough.

You must show that the child is at the extreme end of the spectrum within the special education grouping.

Examples might be extreme classroom problems, serial suspensions, extreme drug abuse, several hospitalizations for mental problems, or severe asthma.

Work Comp Settlement Tips

Of course you want to get the most value out of your settlement.

Things like restrictions increase the value of the case.

For example, do you have a permanent weight limitation?

Do you have limits on sitting?

Do you have limits on standing?

The Workers’ Compensation insurance company should have to pay extra money if you have any type of restriction.

Did you have to leave your former position and move to another position?

This adds value to your claim.

Did your wage decrease as a result of your injury?

This can dramatically increase your offer.

Does your injury keep you from working at all?

This results in permanent total disability.

The insurance company should increase your work comp settlement to reflect these limitations.
