The SSDI Appeal Process Explained
Every SSDI attorney at our firm serving Las Cruces, NM, is a compassionate yet aggressive legal advocate who knows what it takes to handle even the most complex SSDI appeals effectively. Let us help you appeal a denied SSDI application and fight for the benefits you need.
The following is a brief look at the various stages of the SSDI appeal process:
Reconsideration
A reconsideration is a complete review of your initial denial by a second examiner. The examiner will look at all the documentation originally submitted plus any new medical evidence that we provide.
ALJ Hearing
Should your claim be denied a second time, you are allowed to request a hearing in front of an administrative law judge (ALJ). One of the SSDI attorneys at our firm serving Las Cruces can represent you at, and help you prepare for, this hearing.
Appeals Council
An unfavorable ALJ ruling can be submitted to the Social Security Appeals Council for review. Generally speaking, the Appeals Council can either (1) decline to review your case, (2) order a second ALJ hearing, or (3) grant you the SSDI benefits you seek.
Federal Court
The SSDI lawyers at Michael Armstrong Law can, if necessary, appeal your SSDI case all the way to Federal Court. Pursuing a formal civil action of this nature is a very complex and time-consuming process that should not be undertaken without being represented by a qualified SSDI attorney.
