How to Appeal a Social Security Disability Claim Denial
DENIED SOCIAL SECURITY DISABILITY BENEFITS?
DON'T GIVE UP! YOU ARE NOT ALONE!

 


Only about 37% of initial Social Security disability claims are approved. Unfortunately many claims, if not most, are never appealed and the applicant loses all chance of receiving their monthly "cash in the bank." However, of the disability claims that are appealed and are heard before an Administrative Law Judge, the chances of winning reach about 50%, especially if the applicant wisely hires a Social Security disability lawyer to assist in preparing the paperwork, subpoenaing witnesses, questioning witnesses on the stand and more. A person filing for Social Security disability benefits bears the burden to show that they are disabled and a good Social Security disability lawyer can be a valuable asset during the fight.

What to do to Appeal a Social Security Disability Claim Denial

Step 1

Wht to do if your Social Security disability claim has been deniedDetermine Why  Your SSDI or SSI Claim Was Denied

There are many reasons you may have been initially denied Social Security disability benefits. Read the denial letter carefully and it will provide you with the basis for denial of your Social Security benefit claim. Now you know the area in which you need to focus your appeal. Many times the application was not worded properly to impress upon the reviewer the need for benefits or perhaps your doctor did not send your medical records.

Considering the reason for denial written in the letter, can you still prove (in court if necessary) your need for benefits? If you are not sure or would like help please fill out the form on this page for a FREE evaluation of your claim by a Social Security disability lawyer.
