About Federal Appeals

In taking your case to federal court, the Social Security Disability Law Firm, P.A. is filing a motion for summary judgment — a vote up or down on your eligibility for SSDI or SSI benefits. There are actually three possible outcomes:

(1) The federal appeals judge can deny your claim, ending your chance of receiving benefits (unless your disability worsens).
(2) The judge can remand your case to the Appeals Council or an Administrative Law Judge to review your case based on errors of law or errors of fact. We will represent in a new hearing or appeal.
(3) The judge can award disability benefits to you.

Our firm has prevailed in numerous federal appeals. We attribute our success at the appellate level to extensive experience in Social Security Disability (we practice only in this area of the law), knowledgeable staff (including former SSA employees), and thoroughly researched and compelling legal briefs.

For the best chance of success in your federal appeal, contact Social Security Disability Law Firm, P.A. today. We offer a free consultation. Contact us online or call 1-866-MY-DISABILITY. Our fee (25 percent of retroactive benefits) is collected only if we succeed in your appeal.
