Was Your Social Security Disability Claim Denied?

If your application or initial appeals have been denied, Mark & Associates, P.C. can help. From filing your first appeal to filing a suit in federal court, the professionals at Mark & Associates, P.C. are determined to get you the benefits you deserve.

The Appeals Process:

Administrative Hearing

If you appeal your Social Security Disability application a hearing date will be scheduled before and Administrative Law Judge. This judge is supposed to independently review of your application and make a decision on your case. The judge may call medical or vocational experts to try and determine the extent of your disability and assess your ability to work. It is strongly recommended that you attend a administrative hearing with an experienced Social Security Disability lawyer.

Social Security National Appeals Council

If the Administrative Law Judge rules against your application for Social Security Disability benefits you can file an appeal with the Social Security National Appeals Council. The Social Security National Appeals Council is located in Virginia and reviews the decisions of the Administrative Law Judge. Unfortunately, applicants and their attorneys are not able to attend a hearing before this council. This means that all relevant arguments need to be made during the administrative hearing, because the Appeals Council will review these arguments as well as the judge’s decision.

Filing a Lawsuit

If your appeal is rejected by the Social Security National Appeals Council, Mark & Associates, P.C. can file a lawsuit on your behalf in federal court. This process is like any other civil federal lawsuit, it can be time consuming but may ultimately get you the benefits that you deserve.

Why Hire an Attorney?

Hiring an experienced Social Security Disability lawyer as soon as possible in the application or appeals process can help improve your chances of receiving the benefits you deserve. An experienced attorney can make sure your application and appeals are filed correctly and insure that all arguments on your behalf are made. Best of all, there are no up front legal fees. Mark & Associates, P.C. handles Social Security Disability cases on a contingency basis, this means we don’t collect money unless we recover money for you. Attorneys are also limited to the amount they can charge in legal fees, which helps make the decision to hire an attorney, an easy one.
