DON'T DELAY - APPEAL TODAY



DON'T DELAY, APPEAL TODAY (LINK)

Why does this poignant motto hang on my office wall?

Because it represents the only way to win your disability claims once it's been denied.  And 7 out of 10 will be denied on the first scrabble.

A disability denial is nothing more than a way to get to a hearing.  Nothing more, nothing less.  Use the denial to move your case up the ladder--onward and upward.

If you need help, call me at the Forsythe Firm (256) 799-0297.

I will never ask for a fee until you win your case AND collect the back pay you are due.  (256) 799-0297.

    Almost one-half of all denied claims can be won with an appeal and hearing. It is a serious mistake to fail to appeal a denied claim.

    Too many people are victims of procrastination: they wait just a little too long to appeal their denial. This can be a terrible mistake. The 60 day appeal deadline is not a recommendation, it is the law. Fail to appeal within 60 days and your claim dies. Maybe forever.

YOUR DISABIILTY CLAIM WAS DENIED. IT WAS PROBABLY A MISTAKE.

IS YOUR DISABILITY DENIAL CORRECT? You applied for Social Security disability.  They sent you to a doctor for an examination, then denied your benefits.  Should you assume that Social Security made the correct decision?  No.  You should assume they made a bad decision because they probably did. In nearly one-half of denials which are appealed, a judge will review the evidence and overturn the denial to award full benefits to the claimant.  In simple terms, Social Security got the first decision wrong. Never assume a denial by Social Security is correct.  Assume it is wrong and can be overturned. What is the biggest mistake you can make after being denied by Social Security?  Failing to appeal the denial within 60 days is the single biggest mistake you can make. Claimants lose millions of dollars every year by failure to appeal denied claims.  Don't make this mistake. What are the risks if I appeal and lose?  There is no risk.   In an appeal, you have every

CONCENTRATION, PERSISTENCE AND PACE (CPP) ISSUES & DISABILITY

I win many Social Security disability cases by showing how my client has trouble with concentration, persistence and pace (CPP). These issues are not obvious to the casual observer but certainly may qualify for a disability benefit. Under SSR 96-9(p), Social Security considers "work" as the ability to work 8 hours per day, 5 days per week or an equivalent schedule.  CPP issues prevent this and qualify for disability. CONCENTRATION is the ability to remain focused and on task for at at least 2 hours at a time and to complete an 8-hour workday.  Most workers will be off task about 5 to 9 percent of the workday and this is tolerated.  However, concentration can be hindered by pain, fatigue, depression or other mental health issues.  When a worker is off task more than about 10 percent of the workday on a consistent basis due to one of these medical issues,  they become unemployable. PERSISTENCE is the ability to report to work and do a job  8 hours a day, 5 days a
