Salt Lake City Disability Appeals Lawyer

Utah SSD Claims Denial Lawyer

All too often, people who have injuries or illnesses that render them unable to work have their Social Security disability (SSD/SSDI and SSI) claims initially denied, not because they do not need the disability payments, but because they did not complete a form appropriately or their doctors did not detail their injury in a manner that "complies" with a Social Security disability. It does not have to be this way.

At Matt Nielson Law Offices, P.C., our legal team is entirely devoted to assisting clients with their SSD questions, applications, appeals and hearings. Call 801-790-4936, toll free at 866-489-9320 or contact us online to discuss your unique situation today.

Salt Lake City Disability Appeals Attorney

If your initial application has been denied, do not give up. Approximately two-thirds of those who are applying for Social Security disability on their own are denied benefits the first time around. Many claimants do not understand that they have the right to appeal this initial denial. But they must appeal for what is called a Request for Reconsideration within a short time limit or they lose their rights to appeal.

When you work with our compassionate and experienced SSD legal team, we will help you throughout the entire appeals process, including:

  • Gathering your medical records and updating your current status as your injury or disability may have changed over time
  • Helping your treating doctors understand the Social Security disability process through the use of simple, specific forms that will accurately reflect your situation and treatment
  • Develop a theory of the case that helps the Social Security Administration understand why you are disabled and unable to work
  • Assist you in accurately and thoroughly completing Request for Reconsideration forms
