Appeals: When Your Disability Claim Is Denied

Have you been denied Social Security Disability benefits or Supplemental Security Income (SSI)? Your claim does not need to end there. You are entitled to a disability claim appeal. Our experienced attorneys can work with you to ensure that your appeal is a strong one so that you receive the benefits to which you are entitled. With experience in helping people in Cleveland and throughout Northeast Ohio with Social Security Disability claims appeals since 1965, the lawyers of Bentoff & Duber Co., L.P.A. understand the process. We know what it takes to make a strong case on your behalf.

Appealing Is Faster Than Filing A New Application

Your best chance of winning a claim after being denied is through an appeal. Filing a new application takes longer and will likely be denied for the same reasons it was denied the first time. Remember: You only have 60 days to file an appeal after receiving your denial, so do not hesitate to contact us at for help with getting started.
