Helping People With Disabilities Nationwide

Learn About The Social Security Disability Claim Process

For most people who obtain benefits under Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI), it is a long, frustrating process. Fewer than 30 percent of all initial applicants receive benefits the first time they apply. Without the help of an attorney, you risk losing out on SSDI or SSI benefits that you need.

At Midwest Disability, P.A., our No. 1 focus is helping our clients obtain SSDI and SSI benefits. We represent clients throughout the country who need guidance at every stage of the Social Security Disability process. Our legal team started in the Midwest but now provides legal assistance to Social Security applicants throughout the nation. Let us bring our Midwest values to you no matter where you live. Learn how we can help you. Contact us today for a free case evaluation.

Helping You At Every Stage Of Your Social Security Claim

We have extensive experience at every step of the SSDI and SSI processes:

  • Initial application: Many of our clients are surprised to learn that approximately 70 percent of all SSD claims are denied upon the initial application. We can help you complete the application and file it with the Social Security Administration (SSA).
  • Reconsideration: This step in the process is exactly what the name implies. In all but the 11 states that do not have a reconsideration step, the SSA literally reconsiders the claim, starting at the beginning of the process with a different claims examiner. If you do not know whether you are in a state that has reconsideration, contact an attorney to learn more.
  • Hearings with the administrative judge: If your claim is denied at the initial application and reconsideration stages, we will appeal that denial and have a hearing with an administrative law judge.
  • Appeals: After the hearing, if you are still denied benefits, we will appeal that denial and have a hearing with an administrative law judge.

Wherever you are in your disability claim process, our attorneys will help make the best case for you, so you can get the benefits you need.

Contact A Midwest Disability Lawyer Early In Your Claim Process

It is always best to contact us as early in the process as possible. If you have just recently been injured or stricken ill, contact us before you file. If we can help you at the initial application stage, we can greatly increase your chances of obtaining SSD or SSI benefits without having to go through the hearings and appeals. This will save you time and money, get you your benefits faster, and minimize the stress of the entire process.
