Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) Attorney Serving Oklahoma Residents
Clear Guidance for SSDI Claims Across Oklahoma
When a medical condition prevents you from working, navigating Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) can feel overwhelming. You’ve paid into the system through your work — but qualifying for benefits requires meeting strict rules, submitting detailed evidence, and following a process that often isn’t clearly explained.
At Polly Murphy, PC, we help Oklahoma residents understand their SSDI eligibility, prepare strong applications, and avoid the common mistakes that can delay or derail a claim. Our role is to guide you through the process, answer your questions, and make sure your case is presented clearly from the start — so you know where you stand and what steps to take next.
Why Work With an SSDI Attorney Instead of Handling It Alone?

With Polly Murphy, you get more than help completing paperwork. She gathers supporting documentation, communicates directly with the Social Security Administration on your behalf, and ensures your claim is presented as strongly and accurately as possible.

Who Qualifies for SSDI?
To be eligible for SSDI, you typically must meet the following key criteria:
You Must Have Enough Work Credits
These credits come from the years you’ve been employed and the Social Security taxes you’ve paid. The number required depends on your age when you became disabled.
You Must Be Unable to Perform Substantial Work
Your disability must prevent you from earning above the monthly income limit set by the SSA—often referred to as “substantial gainful activity.”
Your Medical Condition Must Qualify Under SSA Rules
The Social Security Administration requires medical evidence showing your condition is severe, expected to last at least 12 months, or likely to result in death, and significantly limits your ability to work.
SSDI Explained: Do You Meet the Requirements?
If you’ve worked, paid into Social Security, and now face a condition that prevents you from working, you may qualify for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI). This is not a handout — SSDI is a benefit you’ve earned through your work history.
At Polly Murphy, PC, we help Oklahoma residents understand their eligibility, navigate the SSDI application process, and avoid common mistakes that can delay or derail a claim. Our goal is to provide clear guidance so you know where you stand and what steps to take next.
Your SSDI Benefits May Support Your Family Too
Many people are surprised to learn that Social Security Disability Insurance can extend beyond the individual applicant. In some situations, your family members may also receive monthly benefits based on your SSDI record, offering additional financial support during a difficult time.
Who May Be Eligible Under Your Benefits:
Minor Children: Your dependent children may qualify for monthly payments tied to your SSDI award.
Your Spouse: Depending on age or caregiving responsibilities, your spouse may also be eligible for benefits.
Adult Children With Disabilities: If your child became disabled before age 22, they may be able to receive benefits based on your work record.
