ADHD Disability Benefits

If you or your child is struggling with ADHD and unable to maintain employment or academic performance, call the Law Offices of Jeffrey A. Rabin & Associates, Ltd at (847) 299-0008. We can assist you with the complex Social Security Disability (SSD) application process and help you pursue ADHD disability benefits.

Common Symptoms and Hardships Associated With ADHD

ADHD presents a variety of symptoms that can make daily life challenging, including:

Difficulty focusing and completing tasks
Impulsivity and poor decision-making
Struggles with organization and time management
Emotional dysregulation and mood swings
Problems maintaining employment or academic performance

Requirements for Receiving SSD With ADHD

To qualify for Social Security Disability benefits with ADHD, the applicant must meet the SSA’s eligibility criteria. ADHD is listed under neurological disorders in the Social Security Blue Book for children, but adults must prove that their symptoms significantly impair their ability to work. Key factors include:

Medical documentation proving a history of ADHD diagnosis
Evidence of severe limitations in executive functioning, concentration, or social interactions
Medical records, psychological evaluations, and testimony from healthcare providers

From applications to appeals, our disability lawyers at the Law Offices of Jeffrey A. Rabin & Associates work tirelessly to help clients with ADHD secure financial stability through SSD benefits.

Getting Disability Benefits for a Child With ADHD

Children with ADHD may qualify for Supplemental Security Income (SSI) if their condition meets the SSA’s criteria under Listing 112.11 for neurodevelopmental disorders. This requires medical documentation of frequent distractibility, impulsive behavior, or significant learning difficulties. To be considered disabled, a child must have an extreme limitation in one, or marked limitations in two, of the following areas of mental functioning:

Learning and academic performance
Social skills and peer interactions
Self-care and task management

The SSA assesses ADHD claims by reviewing medical records, psychological evaluations, school reports, and evidence of how ADHD affects daily functioning at home and school.

If your child’s ADHD is severely affecting their daily life, the Law Offices of Jeffrey A. Rabin & Associates can help you gather the necessary evidence to present a strong claim.

What Information Do I Need to Qualify for Disability with ADHD?

A strong disability claim for ADHD requires substantial documentation, including:

Medical records detailing the ADHD diagnosis
Reports from psychologists, psychiatrists, or primary care physicians
Evidence of prescribed treatments and responses
Statements from teachers, employers, or caregivers
School records, IEP (Individualized Education Program) reports, and standardized test scores (for children)

Filing for ADHD disability benefits can be complex, but the Law Offices of Jeffrey A. Rabin & Associates, Ltd. is here to simplify the process and strengthen your claim.

Why Our Clients Trust Us

My experience with Jeffrey A Rabin has been very good.

My approval of Social Security disability benefits came much quicker than I had expected. I first met with an associate on April 16, 2020 and we filed my application on May 21, 2020. My application was approved on August 3, 2020, only around a four month process. Even though we were at the beginning of this coronavirus outbreak when we started, it was easy to contact them and complete this process.

Thank you so much for all you and the staff have done for me.

It meant a lot to me every time I called and whoever I talked to knew all about my case. It was wonderful that I didn’t get pushed from one person to another. Your staff was always happy; they acted like they personally know me. But most of all I CAN’T BELIEVE HOW FAST YOU HAD MY CASE DONE. You and your staff really put a smile on my face. Thank you for doing what I couldn’t get done. Everyone will know Jeffrey A. Rabin & Associate

Eric Morris

This was an outstanding experience for me from my first appointment to the last.

This Law Firm was very professional kind and considerate of me and my disability. They knew exactly what it was like for me in the real world and absolutely essential to help me explain that and my disability to the Social Security Administration. I definitely could not have done this without them and they have changed my life for the better forever. In my eyes they are the best social security disability law firm in Chicago and the suburbs.

Steven Sidbeck

I filed for my disability and got denied twice. So I decided that I needed help of a lawyer.

I began to search and in the process of me searching I always look @ the reviews if I see more bad than good reviews I move on to the next, but not with these guys I didn’t they helped me thru the whole process and assured me if there was a problem or concern I had to reach out and they would help me anyway they could, I dealt with with a few ppl there in the office I must say from the receptionist down to the paralegals they are awesome...

Danielle Sanders

I wanted to say thank you for everything that you did for me, I greatly appreciate it.

You believed in me when a lot and social security did not. I was a risk for you to pay for my medical records, not knowing if you would win, if I had not won you would have been out of a lot of money and time. I have known other attorney’s, and have worked with them in the past, but they are nothing like you! You are a very kind generous human being with compassion. I pray that God will bless you practice and make you very successful ...
