you need to do to improve your chances of being approved. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our step-by-step process and experienced Social Security Disability team make it easy to understand SSD benefits and what the approval process will look like.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As of 2023, Arizona sees over 15,000 individuals apply for Social Security Disability benefits annually due to disabilities or illnesses. According to the most recent data from the<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ssa.gov\/\"> Social Security Administration<\/a>, only about 37 percent of these applicants are approved for disability benefits upon their initial application.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This implies that more than 60 percent of applicants are denied, and the likelihood of success is even lower for those who apply without professional assistance. The reasons for denial of SSD benefits may vary, but the reality remains that it can be challenging to achieve success without expert guidance.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fortunately, there\u2019s a way to put the odds of success back in your favor. The process of applying for SSD benefits is complex, but at JacksonWhite Law, we can help simplify your options and provide a clear legal plan of action. In Arizona, applicants who are represented by an attorney are three times more likely to be approved for SSD benefits. With Jared Everton&#8217;s dedicated and knowledgeable services, you&#8217;ll have the opportunity to get closer than ever to approval for SSD benefits.

A disability lawyer will know how the application process works and will be able to help you fill out the paperwork in a way that could increase your chances of being approved.<\/span><\/p><h4>Getting Approval After Being Denied<\/h4><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even if your application is denied in the beginning, there are still plenty of chances to get approved. The next stage in the application process is called, \u201cClaim Reconsideration.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is not uncommon for applicants to be denied following the Claim Reconsideration, and we are well prepared to begin the third step, \u201cALJ Disability Hearing\u201d following your second denial. This is when an administrative law judge from the Office of Appeals will hear your case.<\/span><\/p><h4>The Disability Hearing Process<\/h4><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is your chance to plead your case in person instead of being a name on a piece of paper. Even at this stage, very few applicants win their cases. This is because applicants don\u2019t hire a Social Security benefits attorney. By hiring an Arizona SSD lawyer, your chances of winning the case increase greatly.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the administrative law judge denies your disability claim, your Social Security disability attorney can appeal it to the Appeals Council on your behalf. At this point, the Appeals Council will review the administrative law judge\u2019s decision to look for any procedural errors. At this point, your SSD attorney can submit new evidence for consideration.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Worst case scenario, the court upholds the previous decision. At this stage in the process we can appeal the case to the Federal Court and try to get the decision overturned. If the case doesn\u2019t get approved at this level, there is the U.S. Supreme Court, but this option is not recommended as t<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">he Supreme Court chooses the cases they want to hear.\u00a0 The recommended path is to start over and submit a new application.

Firstly, you must review the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ssa.gov\/hlp\/radr\/10\/ovw001-checklist.pdf\">Adult Disability Checklist<\/a> provided by the Social Security Administration (SSA). Secondly, you must complete the Disability Benefit Application also provided by the SSA.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To speed up the application process, it&#8217;s recommended that you have information readily available related to your work history, medical condition, and employment history. These factors will be considered during the SSA&#8217;s review of your application and in determining your eligibility for benefits.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you have submitted your application, the SSA will confirm receipt and initiate the review process. After processing your application, they will send a final decision to you by mail. It&#8217;s important to note that the process can take some time, but you can check the status of your SSD application if you haven&#8217;t received a decision yet.<\/span><\/p><h4>Should You Apply on Your Own or With a Lawyer?<\/h4><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While there are two ways to approach the application process for Social Security Disability (SSD) benefits, working with an attorney can provide significant benefits. While it&#8217;s free to apply for SSD benefits on your own, partnering with a Social Security Disability lawyer can provide valuable support and guidance throughout the process.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An experienced attorney can help you better understand the complexities of the application process and help you organize and present your information in a way that maximizes your chances of approval. While it&#8217;s true that working with an attorney comes at a cost, the potential benefit of a greater chance of approval can be well worth the expense of hiring legal help.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you&#8217;re considering applying for SSD benefits in Arizona, don&#8217;t hesitate to reach out to us at <a href=\"tel:4805713870\">(480) 571-3870<\/a> to schedule your free consultation. Let JacksonWhite provide you with the assistance and guidance you need to successfully navigate the application process.<\/span><\/p><p><strong>Statistics show that applicants represented by an attorney are three times more likely to receive benefits than those who apply on their own.<\/strong><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The reasons for SSD benefits application denials are varied, but applicants who choose to apply on their own often struggle with understanding the complex intricacies of the process and may not present their information in a way that fully highlights their disability. In contrast, an experienced SSD attorney has completed numerous benefits applications and understands exactly what needs to be presented to give the applicant the best chance of success.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ultimately, whether to apply for SSD benefits on your own or with an attorney is a personal decision based on your goals. If you&#8217;re willing to take your chances and risk a lower approval rate, applying on your own may be the best option. However, if your goal is to maximize your chances of approval, working with a Social Security disability attorney may be the ideal choice.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A skilled attorney can simplify the application process and provide comprehensive support from start to finish, increasing your chances of success and ensuring that your needs are fully taken care of throughout the process.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Call our office today at <a href=\"tel:4805713870\">(480) 571-3870<\/a> <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">to schedule your free consultation.
