Knowing The Causes Of Strokes

A stroke occurs when an artery in the brain becomes blocked, thereby depriving the brain of blood and oxygen and damaging the tissue itself. The most common cause of stroke is an arterial thrombosis or blood clot, which can form in the cerebral artery itself or in the heart as a result of variety of heart problems. A blockage in the cerebral artery by fatty deposits as a result of atherosclerosis can also lead to a stroke.

Qualifying For SSD Benefits

In the event that you have had a stroke, you may qualify for Social Security Disability benefits in the form of Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI). The Social Security Administration will examine your case to see if you meet a certain set of criteria before they determine if the effects of your stroke are severe enough to warrant the receipt of benefits as a qualifying disorder. Our lawyers can assist you in filing for these benefits, and will provide you with legal support that may increase your chances of your claim being granted.
