Frequently Asked Questions
What does a social security disability lawyer in Newtown do?
A social security disability lawyer helps you prepare and file your initial application or appeal a denial. They gather medical evidence, complete forms correctly, and represent you at hearings before an administrative law judge. In Pennsylvania, these hearings often take place in Philadelphia or Trenton, but your lawyer can handle the process remotely.
How long do I have to appeal a denial in Pennsylvania?
In Pennsylvania you have 60 days from the date you receive a denial notice to file an appeal. This deadline is strict and missing it can mean starting over. A lawyer can ensure your appeal is filed on time and includes all necessary documentation.
What is the success rate for disability claims in Pennsylvania?
Nationally about 35 percent of initial claims are approved. In Pennsylvania the approval rate at the hearing level is higher, often around 50 to 60 percent. Working with a lawyer significantly improves your chances of a favorable decision.
