👶💼 Navigating Social Security disability benefits for a child or disabled adult child can feel overwhelming. Do you know what options are available to protect your family's financial future?
In this full episode, Calloway County attorney Jeff Roberts (with 34 years of legal experience) breaks down how to secure disability benefits for minor children and disabled adult children, shield assets, and build a strong legal claim:
🔹 Disabled Minors vs. Disabled Adult Children: Understand the difference between needs-based Supplemental Security Income (SSI) for minors and drawing benefits off a parent's earnings record for adult children whose disability began before age 22.
🔹 Special Needs Trusts & ABLE Accounts: Learn how financial instruments can shield inheritances or assets (even up to $1,000,000) so your child doesn't lose their SSI eligibility.
🔹 Medical & School Documentation: Discover why continuous doctor visits, physician support letters, and teacher evaluations are vital evidence for proving functional limitations.
🔹 The Age 18 Transition: Find out what happens when your child turns 18 and is re-evaluated under the adult standard for full-time competitive employment.
Before navigating initial application rejections alone, watch the full video interview below to get clear, practical guidance for your family!
