Representation of claimants on a contingency fee – we only get paid if you get paid.

If you have any questions, please contact us.

Our firm is available to assist you with the application process. We can help you complete applications, collect medical records and other documents you may need. If your claim is denied, you have a right to appeal the decision. There are four appeal levels. The first appeal is called "reconsideration." Reconsideration is a complete review of your claim by someone who did not take part in the first decision.

If your claim is denied after reconsideration, you may request a hearing, the second appeal. A hearing will be conducted by an administrative law judge. The hearing is usually held within 75 miles of your home. You will have an opportunity to personally appear and present your case. Our attorney will prepare you for the hearing and present your case before the judge.

If you disagree with the hearing decision, you may ask for review by the Appeals Council. The appeals council may or may not review a judge's decision. At this stage, our office will continue to monitor the case while it remains pending, keep the record updated with relevant evidence and present a brief to the Appeals Council in support of the case. If the Appeals Council believes the judge's decision is correct, it will decline to review it. If a review is conducted, the Appeals Council will either reverse the judge's decision and issue a favorable decision or send the case back to the judge for further consideration. If you disagree with the Appeals Council's decision, you may file a lawsuit in federal district court.

Our office charges no fee for any work on your case unless and until a favorable decision is made.
