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!

CAN YOU WIN YOUR DISABILITY APPEAL WITHOUT A LAWYER?

The Social Security Administration does not require you to have a lawyer to file an appeal or to appear at a hearing.  However, most people heading for a disability hearing will hire a lawyer or advocate to help them.   Studies have shown that you are about twice as likely to win with a lawyer.  A recent study found that claimants with no lawyer win about 30 percent of the time while claimants with a lawyer or advocate win 60 percent of the time.   " He just cooked his own goose." These statistics cover only one aspect of a disability appear--your odds of winning. The other important aspects are time and convenience. If you prepare and adjudicate your own disability appeal, expect to spend 12 to 24 months working on the case.  You will be collecting, reading and submitting hundreds or thousands of pages of medical records.  These records are complex and often difficult to understand.  And you must know how each medical record helps (or hurts) your dis...

GET YOUR APPLICATION RIGHT - GET PAID SSDI B ENEFITS

  Get your Social Security application right - get paid.   There are hundreds of ways to mess up a Social Security disability application.  One of the most common ways that I see?  Blank lines.  Questions left blank.  One way or another, these questions will get answered before a decision is made on your claim.  They may get answered 6 months later when the Social Security office calls you--but you have just wasted 6 months.   Worse yet, Social Security may assume that since you didn't answer the questions, all the answers are "no," so nobody bothers to call you. This will lead to a negative action on your claim.   The complete disability application will consist, not just of the basic application, but several forms.  Many of those forms will be mailed to you AFTER you file the claim.  The following is always required for a complete application: The basic disability application (5 pages)  Disability Report (14 p...

HOW TO PASS A SOCIAL SECURITY DISABILITY EXAM

  So, Social Security is sending you to one of their doctors for an exam.  The first thing you may ask is, How do I pass this exam?   First, I should say that Social Security exams are not "pass or fail."  The doctor or examiner cannot tell Social Security whether or not you are disabled or whether you should get a benefit.  The doctor is going to check certain facts. For example, the doctor may check the range of motion in your joints and list the measurements. They may check your grip strength. (S)he may determine if you have difficulty walking, squatting, kneeling standing from a seated position.  The examiner may answer specific questions asked by Social Security: Is the use of a cane or assistive device medically necessary? Why is it necessary? Can the claimant use his/her hands to grasp and hold objects? Is the claimant able to understand and follow simple directions?  Here is advice I give my clients for a Social Security examination:  ...
