Federal Appeal

Still Denied SSD or SSI Benefits? File a Federal Appeal

At the law firm of Clark, James, Hanlin and Hunt, LLC, our attorneys strongly believe that if you cannot work due to injury, illness or disability, you are entitled to Social Security benefits. However, many deserving people are routinely denied these benefits after going through multiple stages of review.

If your claim for Social Security Disability (SSD) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits has been denied after hearings before both the Administrative Court and Appeals Council, there is still one option left. Clark, James, Hanlin and Hunt can help you pursue a Federal appeal. Contact us to discuss your SSD/SSI appeals case.

Filing an Appeal of Denial of Benefits in Federal Court

• You have 60 days to file a lawsuit in Federal District Court.
• The court will not consider new evidence. Only the transcript (records) from your administrative hearing and your medical records will be considered by the judge.
• A Federal District Judge will review your case to determine if the Social Security Administration (SSA) was in error in denying your claim for benefits.
