Epilepsy and Social Security Disability Benefits

April 8, 2015 By dlawguide

If you have severe and frequent epileptic seizures that interfere with your daytime activities, you may be able to get disability benefits

Adults with epilepsy may be eligible for Social Security disability benefits. The Social Security Administration (SSA) mainly evaluates epilepsy according to the type, frequency, duration, and nature the seizures. Because epilepsy isn’t necessarily disabling if it’s well-controlled, you will need to prove that your epilepsy interferes with your daily activities even though you’ve taken anticonvulsant medications as prescribed for at least three months. You’ll also need to show that any alcohol or drug use isn’t contributing to your medication’s lack of effectiveness.

The best way to determine whether you may be eligible for Disability related to Epilepsy is to speak with one of our experienced Disability Attorneys today. The evaluation is FREE. Fill out our Disability evaluation form below to get started.
