How Does the Social Security Administration Decide if I Qualify for Disability Benefits for Back Pain or Spine Impairments?
If you have a spine disorder that limits movement or causes chronic back pain, Social Security disability benefits may be available. To determine whether you are disabled by your back pain, or other spinal problems, the Social Security Administration first considers whether your back problems are severe enough to meet or equal a listing at Step 3 of the Sequential Evaluation Process. If you meet or equal a listing because of back pain or other spine disorders, you are considered disabled. If your back problems are not severe enough to equal or meet a listing, Social Security Administration must assess your residual functional capacity (RFC) (the work you can still do, despite your back), to determine whether you qualify for benefits at Step 4 and Step 5 of the Sequential Evaluation Process.

About Minneapolis Disability Lawyer, Jerry W. Sisk
Earlier in his career, Jerry represented insurance companies so he knows first-hand how these companies defend against lawsuits by manipulating the legal system in their favor. He knows what it takes to prove entitlement to disability benefits. Insurance companies have infinite resources to fight your case so they can hire expensive defense lawyers and investigators to assist in your denied disability claim. They can send you to their doctors to obtain medical reports which potentially can be used against you during their case. Jerry understands this and works diligently to make sure that all the necessary steps are taken to win at trial. Jerry is recognized by Super Lawyers Magazine as a Rising Star Minnesota disability attorney and has a 10/10 rating on Avvo.
