Minnesota SSI Claims for People Over Age 50
Not all SSI and SSDI claims are created equal. If you are over the age of 50, you do not face the same challenges and you do not have to meet the same requirements as younger people with the same disabilities.
At the Minneapolis law offices of Edward C. Olson, Attorney at Law, we help disabled individuals over the age of 50 get everything they can out of their Social Security disability plan.

The Social Security system is not perfect, but one thing they have done for the benefit of all workers is to realize that as we grow older, our ability to adapt to other types of work decreases. As you reach the age of 50 or 55, after a career focused in one area of work, it becomes easier to meet the standard for disability set by the Social Security Administration.
People who are over the age of 50 do not have to be as limited by their disability in order to qualify for SSDI benefits. If you are under the age of 50 and you can still complete a simple, unskilled job, you will not be eligible for benefits. For disabled individuals 50 and older, if you are severely limited in your ability to carry out a simple job, you may be entitled to disability benefits. In some cases, it is even possible to continue working while receiving Social Security disability insurance.
If you have never dealt with the Social Security Administration before, it is hard to know what you can expect. Attorneys Edward C. Olson or Frank W. Levin will work with you throughout the process, answering any questions you may have and making sure your rights are protected. We encourage all interested parties to contact us as soon as possible, so we can help you take action.
