Raleigh Social Security Disability Lawyers NC

Are you sick or injured? Unable to work? Filed a social security disability claim in NC only to have it denied? The initial denial of your social security disability claim does not mean that you are not entitled to benefits. There are a number of legal avenues available to help you get the compensation you deserve. At the social security disability law offices of Brent Adams & Associates, our experienced social security appeal lawyers work with you to get the results you deserve.

Claim Denial and Legal Options

Social Security Disability Income Benefits provide federal benefits to individuals who are injured, sick or unable to work. Benefits are determined on an individual basis, based on past wages. It is not uncommon for an initial social security disability claim to be denied. Obtaining a good social security appeal lawyer in NC and filing an immediate request for reconsideration most often proves to be successful toward approval of the money you desire.

If your initial appeal is denied, you can coordinate the next appeal and ask for a hearing where you will meet with an Administrative Law Judge in an informal hearing. The Administrative Law Judge will review your case independent from any prior knowledge of it, then make a ruling either approving or denying your request. Most cases are won at this level.

In the unlikely event that your social security disability benefits claim is denied at this level, Brent Adams and Associates can help you with further appeals.
