We Take On All Types of Social Security Disability Cases in Colorado

Social Security Law Group is a firm specialized in SSDI, SSI and other Social Security disability claims. Founded nearly three decades ago, we are here to demystify the SSD application and appeals process for our clients. Our Colorado Social Security disability lawyers help people and families with all stages of the process—from the initial application to an ALJ hearing to federal litigation. Along with other types of Social Security disability cases, our Colorado attorneys have experience with: 

• Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI): Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) is the primary Social Security disability insurance program. It covers people who cannot work due to an injury, illness, or other chronic medical impairment. To qualify for SSDI, a person must have a sufficient work history based on their age. If you have any questions about filing a claim or an appeal, contact our SSDI attorney in Colorado for help.
• Supplemental Security Income (SSI): Supplemental Security Income (SSI) is the alternative Social Security disability program. Instead of a work history requirement, financial/legal eligibility is based on needs. There are strict income and financial resource requirements. We have extensive experience handling SSI claims and SSI appeals in Colorado.
• Survivor’s (Widow’s) Benefits: We handle survivor’s (widow’s) benefit claims. You can entrust us with the delicate handling of survivor benefits in Colorado. These benefits cushion families mourning the demise of a loved one who had accrued substantial Social Security credits. Have questions about the claims process? Contact us for help.
• Childhood Disability Claims: Childhood disability claims can be especially challenging. For parents of disabled children, financial support may be available through Social Security disability. Though, child disability claims can be complicated. You do not have to take on the claims process alone. Contact our Colorado childhood disability lawyer for help with your disability claim or disability appeal. We champion the cause of disabled children.
• Medicare: Medicare is a federal health insurance program. Although it primarily covers people who are 65 years of age or older, some disabled people who are not senior citizens may also qualify for Medicare coverage as part of their disability claim. Our Colorado Social Security disability attorneys help clients with the full range of Medicare cases.

What to Know About Social Security Disability Appeals

Was your Social Security disability claim rejected in Colorado? Do not give up hope. While it is normal to feel stressed out and unsure of what to do next, you should know that a significant share of initial SSDI and SSI claims are denied. Indeed, more than two-thirds of initial disability cases are rejected by the SSA. You have the right to appeal a denial. Our firm helps clients with each and every stage of the Social Security disability appeals process. Here is a more detailed overview of the Social Security disability appeals process in Colorado: 

• Reconsideration: Reconsideration is the first stage in the appeals process. During this stage, your Social Security disability claim will be reviewed by a different, more senior claims examiner. Notably, new evidence can be presented during reconsideration. A request for reconsideration should be filed within 60 days of an initial denial letter. 

• ALJ Hearing: If your claim is denied after reconsideration, you may request a hearing with an Administrative Law Judge (ALJ). The ALJ impartially reviews the claim. A Colorado Social Security disability lawyer can help you present a strong and compelling case. A request for an ALJ hearing should be filed within 60 days of a denial of reconsideration. 

• Appeals Council: The Appeals Council stage is available if you disagree with the ALJ’s decision. The Council will review your case, focusing primarily on the ALJ’s decision and any legal errors or new substantial evidence that may affect the outcome. 

• Federal Court: If your case is unsuccessful at the Appeals Council level, you have the option to file a lawsuit in a federal district court. While it is relatively uncommon in SSDI or SSI appeals, you always have the right to take your case to a federal court in Colorado.
