Welcome to Disability Benefits Help, an organization committed to helping claimants across the United States receive approval for disability benefits.
Since applying for Social Security disability benefits can be a difficult process, a disability attorney or advocate may increase your chances of being awarded benefits by helping accurately and favorably complete the complex paperwork, ensuring that all deadlines are met, and providing you with representation at a hearing. After submitting our web form, you will receive a 100% FREE evaluation of your disability claim. Disability attorneys and advocates receive compensation if you are awarded back benefits. We have no affiliation with the Social Security Administration, the agency at which you can apply for Social Security disability at no cost.
Were You Denied Social Security Disability Benefits?
Unfortunately, most initial applications for disability benefits are denied by the SSA. There are several reasons for disability denials.
Ultimately, regardless of how strong your case is, disability denials boil down to the fact that the SSA has a backlog of applicants, and the criteria for disability approval is hard to meet.
The initial stage is a big hurdle to get over, with more than 60% of claimants facing denial.
You will have 60 days to deny this decision in most states. You can start the appeals process easily online.
Unfortunately, the SSA rejects over 85% of Reconsideration requests.
The next stage of the appeals process will be fighting your case in a hearing before an Administrative Law Judge (ALJ). It’s critical to take the Hearing seriously and prepare as much as possible, as this is your best chance of approval. Nearly 50% of applicants are approved at the Hearing stage.
If you’d like to significantly improve your odds of approval at the Hearing, you should hire a Social Security disability attorney or advocate.
