If you live in Virginia and have a medical condition that prevents you from working, you may qualify for Social Security disability benefits. Learn about the eligibility criteria for the Social Security Administration's disability programs and the average payment amount for Virginians.
For more information about the disability benefits, check out the Atticus Advice Center.
We’ll go over how to qualify for benefits, how much you might earn once you do, and what you can do to improve your odds of getting approved.
When you have a question for the SSA, they often suggest calling their national number, or visiting their website.
If you’re a resident of the state of Virginia and can’t work due to an illness or disability, you might qualify for federal disability benefits programs, including Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI).
More than 200,000 Virginians with an illness or disability receive federal disability benefits, including Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI), Supplemental Security Income (SSI), or both.
If you’re a Virginia resident who’s unable to work due to an injury or illness, you might qualify for Social Security benefits.
At the bottom of many websites, you'll find a small disclaimer: "We are not a law firm and are not qualified to give legal advice." If you see this, run the other way. These people can't help you: they're prohibited by law from giving meaningful advice, recommending specific lawyers, or even telling you whether you need a lawyer at all.
There’s no disclaimer here: Atticus is a law firm, and we are qualified to give legal advice. We can answer your most pressing questions, make clear recommendations, and search far and wide to find the right lawyer for you.
Two important things to note: If we give you legal advice, it will be through a lawyer on our staff communicating with you directly. (Don't make important decisions about your case based solely on this or any other website.) And if we take you on as a client, it will be through a document you sign. (No attorney-client relationship arises from using this site or calling us.)
