Appealing a Denied Disability Claim
The first step in appealing a denied disability claim is to file what is called a “Request for Reconsideration.” This request must be completed correctly and within 60 days of receiving your denial notice. If either of those things doesn’t happen, you could be forced to start the process all over.
If a request for reconsideration yields another denial (and most do), it is time to request a hearing in front of an administrative law judge (ALJ). This is commonly referred to as an “ALJ hearing” and it may be the most important step in the entire process. The reason is that the ALJ hearing is the first opportunity you have to tell your story directly to someone from the Social Security Administration (SSA). This is also the stage where most claims are won or lost.
Our lawyers can represent you at this hearing and prepare you for what to expect. They can also make sure you’re prepared to give honest, yet effective answers to the questions you’ll likely be asked about your physical disability or mental health issues.
