Potential changes to Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) rules could significantly affect workers
over age 50, a group that already faces higher risks of disability and job loss.
Age-based accommodations currently make it easier for older workers to qualify when a disability limits
their ability to work, but proposed reforms could weaken these protections.
For millions nearing retirement, SSDI remains a vital safety net that helps preserve financial stability
when health problems force an early exit from the workforce.
Now, more than ever, SSDI is crucial to many in the workforce. Securing an SSDI attorney can ensure
the highest success rate of the SSDI application.
