Skilled Guidance in the Disability Claims Process
If you have been denied disability benefits from Social Security or your employer’s long-term disability plan, you are not alone. Every year, hundreds of Pennsylvania residents who are unable to work due to an injury or illness have had their disability benefits unfairly denied or stopped. The good news is that, with a lawyer’s help, many people successfully have their benefits approved or reinstated.
If your disability claim has been denied, it is important to contact a lawyer promptly. Specific deadlines must be met, or you may give up your right to an appeal. At Shollenberger Januzzi & Wolfe, LLP, our attorneys offer a free initial consultation to explain your rights and answer your questions. With offices in Harrisburg and Enola, we represent disabled people throughout central Pennsylvania.
Fighting for Your Right to Compensation
Receiving a disability claim denial can make it seem like you are out of options. At Shollenberger Januzzi & Wolfe, LLP, we will fight for you to get the benefits you deserve.
The following pages provide more information about disability benefit claims:
- Social Security Disability Insurance: If your SSDI claim gets denied after your initial application or request for reconsideration, you’re not alone. Many claims are unsuccessful at these early stages. We can help you at the next (and arguably the most important) stage in the process when you can present evidence before an administrative judge. Our attorneys’ experience with presenting medical evidence, making strong legal arguments, and even the appeals process is an enormous advantage.
- Long-Term Disability: Many employers offer long-term disability plans that provide weekly benefits if you cannot work due to a disability. Many insurance companies pay these benefits initially but stop making payments after two years when the definition of disability becomes more restrictive. You have limited time to contact a lawyer to appeal that decision.
Our attorneys will always put your best interests at the forefront of any legal strategy. If we can settle your case without litigation, you can trust our skilled negotiators to advocate for you. However, we will fight tirelessly for you in court if litigation becomes necessary.
