Social Security Benefits

Attorney in West Hartford, Connecticut

Experienced Counsel When You Seek Social Security Benefits

If you have been injured or are suffering from an illness that will prevent you from working for at least 12 months, you may be entitled to benefits under the federal Social Security system. These benefits can cover lost wages, the cost of medical care, and job training. If you believe you have a Social Security disability (SSD) claim, you want an experienced lawyer to guide you through the process and help you get the benefits you need.

At the Law Offices of James F. Aspell, P.C., we represent men and women throughout Connecticut who seek benefits for a disability under the Social Security laws. We dedicate ourselves to providing each client with a high level of personal service, striving to keep you constantly informed regarding the status of your case and your options moving forward, so that you can make good decisions. Contact our offices to schedule a free initial consultation.

The Social Security system will provide you with compensation, regardless of age, if you meet the Social Security Administration's definition of "disabled." The injury need not be work-related and can be psychological as well as physical. We have handled SSD claims involving a broad range of injuries, including

  • Trauma suffered in car or other accidents, such as
    • Broken bones
    • Spinal cord injury
    • Traumatic brain injury
    • Paralysis
  • Cancer
  • Heart disease
  • Arthritis
  • Repetitive stress syndrome
  • Mental illness, including depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder and schizophrenia

We know from experience that most applications for Social Security disability benefits are initially denied and many are denied upon review or appeal. We work with individuals at all stages of a Social Security disability claim, from the preparation of the initial filing through review and appeal. We understand that these cases often take time and perseverance to win and are dedicated to helping you get full and fair compensation.

For sound advice from an experienced Social Security disability lawyer in Connecticut, contact us or call us at 860-523-8783 to set up a free initial consultation. Our offices are open Monday through Friday, 8 am until 5 pm. We have free onsite parking with easy access off I-84.
