Supplemental Security Income (SSI)

If you suffer from a physical or mental disability that has prevented you from ever working, meaning you never contributed to Social Security, you may be eligible for financial assistance known as Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits.

For Those Who Haven’t Paid Into Social Security

At the Law Office of Ellene Welsh, we help qualifying individuals obtain SSI benefits. To discuss if you are a candidate for these payments, call us at 770-489-3456 to schedule a free initial consultation. We serve clients in Douglasville, Columbus and western Georgia.

How Does Supplemental Security Income Work?

SSI is a federal income supplement designed to help people suffering from a long-term disability who have been unable to work due to a qualifying physical or mental condition. Based on each individual’s needs, this financial assistance is paid monthly and helps cover basic needs such as food, clothing and shelter. If you obtain SSI payments, you may also receive Medicaid to pay medical bills.

How Can a Lawyer Help?

Qualifying for Supplemental Security Income is complicated and requires:

  • A certain level of physical or mental disability
  • Evaluation of potential future employment
  • Interviews with the Social Security Administration
  • Disclosure of your income and expenses

Having an experienced lawyer prepare and persuasively present your case can significantly improve your chances of success. Our attorney, Ellene Welsh, can determine whether or not you have a qualifying mental or physical disability. If you meet the hardship standard, she will walk you through the process.

If your claim is denied, there is no need to worry. We will swiftly begin the appeals process, vigorously representing you.

When I first got my review denial letter from SSA and had to appeal I was crushed...I contacted several lawyers and no one wanted to take my case. I contacted Ellene Welsh law firm and spoke with Annette and told her about my situation(she spoke with Attorney Welsh) they agreed and took my case. Let me tell you, they are so thorough...they took the time to explain everything to me each step of the way and obtained all medical records, worked endlessly with my SSA hearing officer, and help ease my anxiety. I'm happy to write after a long battle I received a fully favorable decision with no hearing!! If you need a office that will work tirelessly for you then look no further...Thankyou so much to Attorney Welsh and Annette...

I had tried to get my disability first with a different lawyer and was turned down. When I called thier office to ask about an appeal they said they couldn't help me and was very rude and hung up on me. Found another lawyer who did my appeal was turned down. I called Ellene Welsh and her and her staff were very nice and helpful. Of course it was during the pandemic so we had to do things differently but she helped me and I won my case. Anytime I had a question they were very helpful and nice. If I could just say if you need a great lawyer with a great staff call her. They will fight for you. Love them.

I became a client of Ellene's 3 years ago. When I first met Ellene she took a great deal of time to go over my denied paperwork from Social Security. She explained it was not a quick process and we would be looking at least another year to eighteen months before a hearing. She explained every step! When I had questions Becky and other office staff were always there to walk me through my questions and ease my mind and at times frustrations. Never along this journey did I feel ignored or abandoned. Ellene's staff got all my records together for my hearing and thanks to their hard work we got an immediate decision. It is very rare, I knew it was a good case going in, but Ellene made sure every "I" was dotted and every "T" was crossed. She was excellent in front of the judge and knows what she is doing. It was her 20 plus years experience that makes her so good! I can't thank Ellene and her staff enough for all their time, hard work and dedication in helping me with my case. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a Social Security Disability Attorney.
