Representation For Ohio Social Security Disability Claims
Social Security Disability (SSD) benefits are designed to be a lifeline for people who can no longer work due to physical or mental disabilities. Unfortunately, obtaining those benefits is not easy. The vast majority of initial claims are denied, forcing people to endure long waits and difficult appeals processes.
At Shawn Taylor, PLLC, we are passionate advocates for the disabled. Our SSD attorney, Shawn Taylor, has more than 30 years of experience, including work as a former municipal judge and assistant attorney general. Because SSD is a federal program, our attorney can help you no matter where you are located in Ohio, and we understand what it takes to get positive results.
We Can Help You Challenge Unfair SSD Denials Anywhere In Ohio
At Shawn Taylor, PLLC, we understand that this is a difficult time for our clients, and we do our utmost to make things easier. Our clients are never required to visit the office or go to court. Everything can be handled over the phone, via email or through online/virtual meetings.
If your initial application for SSD benefits is denied, you have the right to appeal the decision. The appeals process includes:
- A request for reconsideration
- A hearing before an Administrative Law Judge (ALJ)
- Review by SSA’s Appeals Council
- Review by the federal district court
At Shawn Taylor, PLLC, we take a strategic approach to every claim and work hard to overcome some common reasons for denials. We make sure that your application includes detailed medical records, including diagnoses, treatment plans and opinions from your medical providers. Errors and omissions in the application process or your supporting documents are some of the most common problems we see. If your claim goes before an ALJ, our lawyer will advocate for you fiercely.
