Do You Know Why the Social Security Administration Denied Your Claim?
A significant percentage of Social Security disability claims are denied at the time of first application. It is common to hear Social Security disability law firms state that they help clients get their case denials overturned. We take a different approach. We assume the Social Security Administration may have denied your claim for one of two basic reasons:
- You did not present the right medical evidence; or
- You do not, in fact, qualify for SSD.
For Lack of Evidence?
If you were denied for the first reason — lack of well-presented medical evidence — the lawyers of Sokol & Mazian are prepared to help you appeal — and win if you deserve to win. We are confident of our ability to help clients overturn denials. Often, at the administrative hearing, we are able to show that there had been incomplete information or documentation.
Rightfully Denied?
On the other hand, if you were denied for the second reason (failure to qualify), we are committed to helping you discover that fact in a timely manner so that you can begin to explore other options. Although you are unable to work because of your disability, your claim may not have met the technical requirements that would entitle you to receive SSDI benefits.
We may be able to point you in the direction of other sources of financial relief that you haven't considered, such as a review of any existing private disability insurance.
Discuss your Social Security disability claim denial with an attorney who will take the time and care necessary to understand why benefits were denied, and how best to approach an appeal.
