How Much Will I Get if I’m Approved for Social Security Disability Benefits?

November 22, 2021 | By Natalie | Social Security Disability

How Much Will I Get if I’m Approved for Social Security Disability Benefits

If you’ve become unable to work due to an injury or medical condition, you may qualify for benefits such as Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI). SSDI is a federal insurance program that provides monthly benefits to eligible workers who can no longer work. How much a disabled worker receives in monthly Social Security benefits is […]

Gastroparesis Awareness Month: Gastroparesis and Social Security Disability

August 18, 2021 | By Natalie | Social Security Disability

Gastroparesis Awareness Month

A lot of people have never heard of gastroparesis. Gastroparesis is a condition that affects the muscles responsible for moving food through the stomach. The stomach is unable to empty its contents, resulting in symptoms that include pain, retching (dry heaves), acid reflux, nausea/vomiting, and bloating. Gastroparesis is a poorly understood condition. Its exact cause […]

What Is a Date Last Insured (DLI)? And How Does It Impact Your SSDI Claim?

March 18, 2021 | By Natalie | Social Security Disability

Date Last Insured and Your SSDI Claim

Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) benefits aren’t permanent. In most cases, you only have five years from the date you last paid into Social Security before your SSDI benefits expire. If you are applying for Social Security Disability Insurance benefits, your “date Last Insured” (DLI) will have a big impact on your claim. To better […]

Disputing Vocational Experts Testimony in SSDI Claims

August 18, 2020 | By Natalie | Social Security Disability

May 12, 2020 | By Natalie | Social Security Disability

Challenging a Vocational Expert at a Social Security Disability Appeal Hearing

If an injury or illness has left you so disabled you can no longer work, you may qualify to collect disability benefits from the Social Security Administration (SSA). In order to be approved for Social Security disability benefits, it’s not enough that you can no longer work at your present job; your medically determinable physical […]

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 […]

The Importance of Medical Records in Social Security Disability Claims

January 15, 2020 | By Natalie | Social Security Disability

The Importance of Medical Records in Social Security Disability Claims

The first thing I ask a potential client is: are you being treated for your medical condition? I am always surprised by the number of people who say “no.” Many of them have valid reasons — no insurance, can’t afford to get medical care. However, medical records in Social Security disability claims are what help […]

December 9, 2019 | By Natalie | Social Security Disability

Social Security Disability and Taxes

It’s a common misconception among Social Security Disability beneficiaries that the income you receive isn’t subject to taxation. Even though your income is from the federal government, it still may be considered taxable income. Here is what Houston residents should know about Social Security disability and taxes. Withholding Allowed When you work a regular W-2 […]

What to Do If Your Continuing Disability Review Results in Losing Benefits

March 26, 2019 | By Natalie | Disability Denials, Social Security Disability

What to Do If Your Continuing Disability Review Results in Losing Benefits

For those who receive Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI), the Social Security Administration (SSA) does a periodic review known as a Continuing Disability Review (CDR) to ensure its recipients still meet the qualifications. The SSA mainly looks to see if your condition has medically improved, and if so, your SSDI review may render you at […]

American Heart Month Raises Awareness of Heart Disease and Cardiovascular Impairments

February 13, 2019 | By Natalie | Disability Attorneys, Disability Denials, Social Security Disability

American Heart Month Raises Awareness of Heart Disease and Cardiovascular Impairments

You may notice a lot of people wearing red this month — that’s because it’s February and the American Heart Foundation has designated February as American Heart Month. They’re wearing red to remind people that heart disease is the No. 1 cause of death in the United States and to educate them on the important […]

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
