Step 1

There are many reasons you may have been initially denied Social Security disability benefits. Read the denial letter carefully and it will provide you with the basis for denial of your Social Security benefit claim. Now you know the area in which you need to focus your appeal.

Considering the reason for denial written in the letter, can you still prove (in court, if necessary) your need for benefits? If you are not sure or would like help please fill out the form on this page for a FREE evaluation of your claim by a Social Security disability lawyer.
