DON'T DELAY - APPEAL YOUR DENIED SOCIAL SECURITY CLAIM NOW

If you've been denied Social Security disability benefits, don't delay.  Take action NOW to protect your claim and get all your benefits.

The Social Security Administration will deny 8 out 10 disability claims filed in Alabama in 2025.  Many of these denials will come after a brief, mechanical review of the application.  Often, they will not get all of the medical evidence. Faulty denials are common.

The majority of denied claims can be won and paid with appeals.  Yes, appeals are time consuming, complex and frustrating.  But they often get your money for you, including back pay or past due benefits.

Here's how THE FORSYTHE FIRM can help you if you've recently been denied (denied within 60 days):

1.  We will meet with you and get to know your disability and your needs.  The consultation is free with no obligation.

2.  If you appoint us to represent you, we will review your denial carefully to see what went wrong.

3.  We will obtain any missing or additional evidence to support approval of your claim.

4.  We will file appeals as necessary to take your disability case up the chain of command--to higher authorities--to seek payment.

5.  When required, we will take your case to a hearing before an Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) and go with you to the hearing to protect your rights.  Note:  Over one-half of all denials are approved and paid at hearings.   

How much does all the work cost?  Absolutely nothing until you win and receive your past due benefits.  If you don't get past due benefits or "back pay," you will never pay a cent in legal fees--no matter how much we have worked on your case.  

We pledge to work tirelessly with you to get your benefits approved.  We have the skill, knowledge and experience to handle Social Security disability cases at all levels--from application to appeals.

Call (256) 799-0297 for a free consultation. You can begin with a phone call.  If a visit to our local office is desired, we will schedule an appointment at your convenience.  We never ask you for money!

IF I CHANGE ATTORNEYS WILL IT DELAY MY DISABILITY CASE?

No.  Getting a new attorney will NOT delay your pending Social Security disability claim or appeal .  Your new attorney "inherits" the case and picks up where the other attorney left off.  There is no re-filing or starting over, so your case is not set back or delayed at all.  Social Security maintains an electronic folder stored in its system.  This folder contains every document ever submitted concerning your claim or appeal.  Your new lawyer may log into your electronic files and see, in real time, all the evidence and other documents in your file. While we do not recommend changing attorneys while your case is pending a decision, it is sometimes necessary.  You may need a new lawyer if your attorney dies, retires or  becomes disabled before your case is settled.  You may choose a new attorney without delaying or causing any set back to your case. If you are considering obtaining a lawyer to handle your Social Security disability case in...

URGENT MESSAGE FROM SOCIAL SECURITY'S TOP OFFICIAL - February 18, 2025

There is a lot of talk and speculation about Social Security in the new Trump Administration.  The acting commissioner of Social Security recently resigned and Lee Dudek has been appointed the new Acting Director. Today (2/18/2025) I received a message from the new Acting Commissioner Dudek.  Here is part of Director Dudek's message on Social Security for 2025:   Our continuing priority is paying beneficiaries the right amount at the right time, and providing other critical services people rely on from us. DOGE personnel CANNOT make changes to agency systems, benefit payments, or other information. They only have READ access. DOGE personnel do not have access to data related to a court ordered temporary restraining order, current or future. DOGE personnel must follow the law and if they violate the law they will be referred to the Department of Justice for possible prosecution.                      ...

SOCIAL SECURITY DISABILITY APPLICATION PROCESS

  Here is a brief overview of what takes place after you file your Social Security disability application : Application confirmation  – Social Security will mail you a copy of your application to sign. You will have an opportunity to review the application, correct any errors, and send it back to Social Security for processing. You must return the signed application. Social Security will not process your application until they receive your signed confirmation. And they don't send reminders about this. Function report  – Social Security will mail you a form called a function report . This form will ask questions about your personal care, meals, house and yard work, getting around, shopping, money, hobbies and interests, social activities,  and other abilities. This form will help Social Security determine what you can and cannot do on a daily basis. It must be filled out carefully and fully and returned. Work history report  – Social Security will ma...
