Throughout your working life, you pay into the Social Security system. When you make an SSDI claim, the government may turn you down. It doesn't seem fair, but it's not unusual. About 70 percent of all Social Security Disability Insurance claims are rejected for one reason or another. It's important not to give up. An experienced lawyer can assist you with your appeal process, which generally consists of four levels:

  • Reconsideration: You generally have 60 days to file appropriate documents after receiving a denial notice. Many people are successful in the reconsideration.
  • Hearing before an administrative law judge: This is a person who played no part in the reconsideration decision or the initial denial. An attorney with our firm can explain your case at the hearing before the administrative law judge.
  • Review by the Appeals Council: This council looks at all requests for review, but it may deny a request if it believes the hearing decision was correct. We can help you with your request for review.
  • Federal court review: We can help you file a lawsuit in a federal district court if you disagree with the Appeals Council's decision or if the council refused to review your case.
