If you are suffering from a chronic illness or injury that prevents you from working, you may be eligible for Social Security Disability benefits, and our attorneys are here to help you get them.
Throughout your career, you’ve contributed to the Social Security system through automatic payroll taxes. This system is designed to start paying money back to you in the event that a severe physical or mental ailment prevents you from being able to work any longer. However, these Social Security Disability benefits can be difficult to obtain, even for those suffering from the most severe conditions. The process of developing a theory, compiling medical evidence, and filing your claim with the Social Security Administration can be a confusing and challenging ordeal. With the help of a Social Security Disability lawyer, these challenges can be overcome.
MCV Law is here to help.
We assist claimants from Rochester and surrounding areas at all stages of the SSD process.

To help you make a case and prove your eligibility for SSD benefits, we can:
- Secure medical evidence and opinions that prove not only the severity of your condition, but its impact on your ability to work
- Help you formulate a well-founded theory that substantiates your claim
- Represent your interests and protect your rights in any hearings convened by the Social Security Administration
