Bernalillo is another vibrant community nestled along the Rio Grande and is home to a historic community that combines its rich cultural heritage with the warmth of small-town living. Locals love the tight-knit atmosphere and the desert vista surroundings. However, if you are employed within the community, a long-term disability that keeps you out of the workforce can be scary and disheartening. It leaves you asking yourself, “How will I preserve my current financial well-being?”
Ultimately, you might find yourself applying for Supplemental Security Income (SSI) or Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) to maintain your current quality of life. Unfortunately, over two-thirds of applicants are denied. And, while this initial denial compounds your stress and anxiety, there is a path forward to receiving the benefits you deserve.
If you have been denied or need help once your initial application has been filed, our team is ready to assist you! A lawyer from our firm can appeal your denied SSI or SSDI claim and help you confidently navigate what can otherwise be a complex and time-consuming process.

Appealing A Denied SSI Or SSDI Claim Generally Begins With Reconsideration
