Appeal a Denied Social Security Disability Claim

According to SSA, 2 out of 3 disability claims are initially denied.

This means that most people seeking disability benefits from SSA will receive at least one claim denial in the mail. However, this is a very common occurrence, and there are usually multiple arguments to raise on appeal to overcome a claim denial.

We have excellent relationships with the various Field Offices and Hearing Offices in Arizona, and our approval percentages are significantly higher than the published statistics. We welcome the opportunity to learn more about your disability claim.

Common Denial Reasons from SSA

Claimants will be denied if SSA was not able to obtain enough medical evidence that proves the disabling condition has been diagnosed 'severe'. 

Your condition is expected to improve...

Your condition is expected to improve...

Your condition is expected to improve...

One of the more common denial reasons used by SSA is that the severe medical condition is expected to improve over time with treatment. 

You can adjust to other work...

You do not qualify for disability benefits...

You do not qualify for disability benefits...

Depending on a person's age and transferrable job skills, SSA will deny a claim if they determine that other work may be available.

SSA will deny an SSDI claim if the taxpayer does not have enough work credits, and will deny an SSI claim if the household income is too high.

If you have been DENIED, do not DISTRESS!

Sadly, SSA denies claims at a high rate, especially in the beginning. There are many good arguments to raise on appeal, such as: 


- SSA was not able to gather all of your medical records

- SSA is relying on the opinion of a medical consultant that has never seen you

- SSA did not fully review or understand all of your medical conditions


Every case is different. Desert Disability knows what it takes to get SSD claims approved on appeal. Contact us for a free case review.
