What is SSD?
Our contribution to Social Security pays for our future by supporting people who presently need benefits. As a “pay-it-forward” system, Social Security touches almost every family in America. We pay to support people who are retired, disabled, survivors of deceased workers, and dependents of beneficiaries through these payments with the understanding that these benefits should be available for us when we need it.
If you are abruptly mentally or physically disabled and believe it will last longer than one year, you may need to apply for Social Security benefits earlier than retirement. Depending on how long you have worked, you may be eligible for monthly payments provided by the government to support you.
SSD denials
If you are denied Social Security Disability benefits, you may need to take legal action to protect your rights and entitlement. You have the right to appeal your denial through the Social Security Appeals Council. You must send your request in writing within 60 days from the date of the denial. While some appeals go through a hearing, others are approved by a third party. If you are denied again, you have the right to take legal action in federal court. If your appeal is denied in federal court, you will have no further opportunities to appeal the decision about your SSD application. It is important to have an experienced attorney assist you through the appeals process and fight for your future.
