Your Claim — Our Commitment
There are many stages in the Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) process. At the Law Offices of Bruce K. Billman in Richmond, Virginia, we will guide you through all the stages of the claims and appeals process, using our considerable skill and experience to seek the most favorable results for your case.
Contact us for help with your SSDI claim. We have 29 years of experience helping people through all five stages of the process:
- Initial SSDI application: We can help you from the very beginning by reviewing your case and determining if it has enough merit to go forward.
- Request for reconsideration: If your initial claim is denied, we can draft and file a request for reconsideration. These requests must be filed within 60 days of the initial claim.
- Administrative law judge hearing: If your request for reconsideration is denied, we can request a hearing before an administrative law judge. We will help you prepare your testimony for this hearing and work with your doctors to obtain the necessary medical evidence for this claim.
- Appeal to the appeals council: If the administrative law judge denies your appeal, we can represent you before the appeals council. A successful appeal here will send the process back a step for a new administrative law judge hearing.
- Appeal to federal court system: If the appeals council denies your claim, the last resort is a federal court appeal. A successful outcome at this stage will not win you benefits, but rather decide that the administrative law judge failed to properly handle your case and get you a new hearing at that level.
We are well versed in all the stages of the SSDI claims process and have an intimate understanding of the courts and judges you will encounter along the way. This knowledge and experience translates to a better chance of success for your SSDI claim.
