Do You Need Help Stabilizing Your Life in Garland?
In Garland, one of the great manufacturing hubs of Texas, people take pride in working hard, raising families, taking care of their homes, and helping their neighbors.
Nobody plans to stop working unexpectedly because of health problems—whether you work for one of the hundreds of manufacturers in the area, or in health care, logistics, energy, technology, retail or any other industry in North Texas.
But when you work, you pay into Social Security. And besides qualifying you for retirement benefits for later, that makes you eligible for Social Security Disability benefits if you can’t work now.
Benefits protect your independence when you can’t work. But it can be tangled mess to get approved.

Types of Help Our Garland Disability Attorneys Provide
Social Security runs two major disability benefits programs.
It’s not your job to understand how these programs work and wrestle with the government to get help. It’s ours.
Talk to us about:
- Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI): You paid into it. It’s not a handout. It’s a form of insurance. Hard workers shouldn’t be left with nothing when medical issues interfere.
- Supplemental Security Income (SSI): You struggle with your health but also financially and maybe haven’t been able to work much or earn much in a long time. SSI benefits are for people who can demonstrate special financial need.
Morgan Weisbrod disability lawyers also help with disability benefits for Texas military veterans, provided by the VA for health problems that started with your service. Sometimes you can get both VA benefits and Social Security Disability.
In Garland, Sachse, Rowlett, Sunnyvale, Mesquite, Richardson and anywhere in DFW, the Morgan Weisbrod disability attorneys are here to help you protect your financial stability and your future.
Pay no attorney fee until you win benefits.

Questions About Social Security Disability Our Garland Disability Lawyers Can Answer
It’s dizzying dealing with a giant government bureaucracy when serious health problems have limited your ability to work and draw an income.
You have many questions, and it can be frustrating finding answers.
The Morgan Weisbrod disability lawyers in Garland are your friends in an unfriendly process. We work with this system all time. You can ask us anything.
These are some of the most common questions people have:
- Does my medical condition qualify for Social Security Disability? You can get disability benefits if your health problems are severe enough to prevent you from working, much at all, for a year.
- How much does Social Security Disability pay? For SSDI, your pay varies with your past earnings history. In recent years, about $4,000 a month is the maximum you could get if you were a high earner.
- Does Social Security Disability come with health care? After a waiting period on SSDI, you can get access to Medicare coverage even though you aren’t retirement age.
- Can I keep working and get disability benefits? Yes, but only a little. Your work could get you denied for benefits. It’s a careful balance.
- What does it cost to get a disability attorney? Nothing up front. You only pay an attorney when you win benefits, and the attorney fee comes out of back benefits.
Having an experienced disability attorney makes the process of proving you deserve disability benefits easier and smoother.
More than anything, the Morgan Weisbrod disability lawyers in Garland got into this because we want to see our Texas neighbors, when they face hard times, able to breathe easier and focus on the important things in life.
