The maze of appeals rules, regulations, paperwork, appointments and legal proceedings is stressful and complicated. Additionally, once your appeal is completed, there is no guarantee you will receive your benefits.

Whether your disability is physical, psychological or both, appropriate medical care and documentation of your care and treatment are key. We have handled numerous SSDI/SSI appeals, and we know what the Social Security Administration looks for when approving a claim for social security benefits. We will fully prepare a strong and strategized case for presentation to a federal Administrative Law Judge by working with medical experts and medical care providers to prove your disability.
Federal laws control how attorneys are paid for Social Security Disability (SSDI) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits claims. If your benefits are granted, the SSA will pay you retroactively from the date you applied for benefits and possibly up to 18 months prior to your application date. We will be paid 25 percent of this retroactive amount or $7,200, whichever is less. The SSA will pay us directly, so that you will not have to pay us out of your own pocket.
Going through the Social Security Disability process can be incredibly difficult, and there are various reasons why a claim may be denied. This can include:
The reality is that only around 30% of Social Security Disability benefits applications are approved after the initial application. Many of the denials revolve around technical issues or medical treatment issues that an attorney would be able to guide you through. Unfortunately, appealing a Social Security Disability denial can be even more complicated than the original application process, and there are stringent deadlines involved.
