Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) is a government program that is supposed to provide financial support to anyone who is unable to work because they have become permanently disabled due to an illness or injury. To qualify for SSDI benefits you have to file a disability claim with the Social Security Administration (SSA) and your claim must be approved.

Each year, the SSA received over 2 million claims for disability benefits. The odds of getting a claim approved are not very good. Only about 35% of all SSDI claims are ultimately approved, and only 30% of disability applications are approved at the initial stage. In some cases, disability claims are properly denied because the applicant is not truly disabled and simply does not meet the eligibility requirements. In many other cases, however, claims are denied for technical reasons, usually involving an incomplete application or insufficient medical documentation.

Emotional distress or emotional harm can often be just as painful as a physical injury. This post will provide a detailed, reliable answer to the very common question of when someone can file a lawsuit and get damages for emotional distress.

What is Emotional Distress?

Emotional distress is a legal term that is used to describe mental pain, suffering, or anguish that is caused by the negligent or intentional actions of someone else. Tort law in the U.S. generally recognizes emotional distress (often referred to as “pain & suffering”) as a type of injury for which monetary damages can be awarded. In most states, however, damages can only be awarded for emotional distress if the emotional distress is directly caused by physical harm.

In the U.S., we have 2 different levels of courts: federal courts and state courts. This page will attempt to explain the difference between federal and state courts.

State Courts

State courts are courts of very general jurisdiction. They have the authority to hear and decide almost any legal issue within the general purview of the state’s authority — which is basically everything.

This includes everything from criminal offenses, divorce, estates, and more.
