Elizabeth NJ Benefits Claims Attorney
Have you applied for Social Security Disability Insurance benefits but your claim has been denied? You are not alone.
Without the experienced guidance of a determined Social Security benefits claims attorney, your chance of prevailing at a denied benefits hearing drops significantly (to about 60%). Also, if your claim is denied at the hearing, your right to submit evidence essentially ends.
We are one of the relatively small number of firms that will handle appeals to the United States District Court and Third Circuit Court of Appeals when all other avenues have been exhausted. In fact, appellate work is a significant part of our practice.
We will guide you through the process of gathering the necessary documentation and completing the required applications in order to file a claim for benefits through the Social Security Administration for your:
- Life-changing or catastrophic accident
- Heart attack, stroke or other sudden event
- Chronic Fatigue Syndrome or Epstein-Barr
- Mental and emotional disorders including schizophrenia, severe clinical depression and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
- Occupational injury or illness including hearing loss and chronic back pain
Thirty to 90 days after your claim is filed, you should receive a Notice of Determination, which in most cases will be an initial statement of denial. We will then file a request for reconsideration. If your claim is denied again, we will request a hearing before an administrative law judge. At these hearings, our rate of success is significantly higher than without representation.
