I can’t do my old job. Am I disabled?

March 10, 2020 | By Natalie | Social Security Disability

I can't do my old job. Am I disabled?

Social Security doesn’t decide if you are disabled based on whether you can do your old job. While that is one of the factors, that is not how the law defines “disabled” in the context of Social Security disability benefits. “Disabled” is defined as being unable to “engage in substantial gainful activity” due to a […]

Attorney M. Stanley Whitehead - 5 out of 5 based on 36 user reviews.  
"I would highly recommend this firm to everyone, Wonderful firm, they took my case , when I was told by a few firms in Ohio that I did not have a case, Marc Whitehead and Associates settled the case in a timely fashion"  Delecia via
"I want to thank the office of Marc Whitehead and especially Jaime Almaguer who was my caseworker. I had begun the disability process myself until I heard about this lawyers' office in Texas. Seemed strange working with folks across the country that I would never meet. Nevertheless, they were able to get my disability first time around. I felt comfortable discussing my issues privately with them and being able to let Jaime do the work. He was responsive, caring and very professional. Thank you all so much, this has changed my life."  Lynne via
