We Advocate For Clients Whose Petition To Receive Benefits Has Been Denied
Most first-time claims for Social Security Disability benefits are denied by the Social Security Administration (SSA). If you have been denied benefits, take action by talking with the lawyers at Oxner & Stacy Law Firm LLC. Our Georgetown and Litchfield, South Carolina, law firm helps workers receive the Social Security Disability benefits they deserve and depend on.
The SSA defines being disabled as being unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity because of a medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or that can be expected to last for a year or more. Sometimes the SSA disputes that applicants are disabled under this definition. Working with an experienced Social Security Disability lawyer can help.
We can help you file a petition for reconsideration and argue your case at a local hearing. If necessary, we can help you appeal further decisions by the SSA.
