The vast majority of Social Security Disability Insurance and Supplemental Security Income claims get rejected.

At Hansen Dirani & Associates Law Offices, our experienced attorneys understand the Social Security system and know how to help clients prepare their claims.

Avoid these SSDI or SSI application mistakes

The following are some common SSDI or SSI application mistakes we have seen:

Not providing enough information — The Social Security Administration wants a lot of details about your medical condition and your work history when considering your claim. If you fail to gather your medical records and provide a list of the doctors who treated you and the medication you've been using, your claim may get rejected. At Hansen Dirani & Associates Law Offices, we can help you prepare and improve your chances of success.

Not double-checking what you put on your application — In some cases, people put down financial information on their application that doesn't match their W-2 tax forms. It's easy to make mistakes when dealing with numbers. A focused attorney can review your application and make sure all your information exactly matches important documents.

Not getting help — The application and appeals process can be extremely complex. The Social Security Administration has many rules and deadlines related to SSDI and SSI claims. It's important to realize that you can contact an attorney at any time during the process. We are prepared to help you put together your initial claim. We can also step in if you've been turned down and need help filing your appeal.
