OVERVIEW:
Experienced And Focused Attorneys
Since our beginning as Silverman & Silverman more than 70 years ago, this firm has focused exclusively on helping our injured New York clients obtain financial compensation for their injuries.
Because of our many years of experience and focus on this area of law, we have gained a thorough understanding of the trials that workers face after suffering injuries and illnesses that prevent them from working. We know you are going through a difficult time, and we will treat you with the dignity and respect you deserve as we help you through the process. Our Schenectady Social Security Disability attorneys have also gained a thorough understanding of the legal aspects of obtaining benefits for injured workers. We can help you:
Navigate the complex legal processes: Both Workers’ Compensation and Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) can pose tremendous bureaucratic challenges for injured workers. We have handled tens of thousands of these cases, so we know how to help you through it.
Maximize your benefits: Our experience is especially beneficial when navigating the intersection between Workers’ Compensation and SSDI. Simple mistakes can lead to diminished benefits. For workers who are eligible for benefits from both programs, it is essential to have attorneys experienced at coordinating both at the same time.

Our attorneys and staff have dedicated our careers to helping regular people get the benefits they need when injuries and illnesses keep them from being able to work.

The Intersection Between Workers’ Compensation and SSDI
Although they both provide means for injured workers to obtain compensation for work-related injuries, Workers’ Compensation and SSDI are very different programs. Many people don’t realize that SSDI can require offsetting payments for injured workers who are also receiving workers’ comp benefits.
