A Disability Appeal Team That Stays in the Fight With You

Most Social Security Disability claims are denied at first. That does not always mean you do not qualify. It often means Social Security did not see enough medical evidence, did not fully understand your limitations, or misapplied its own rules.
At Idiart Law Group, we focus on helping people who cannot work because of physical or mental conditions. For more than 25 years, our attorneys and staff have represented injured and disabled clients and guided them through complex systems like Social Security Disability.
Our disability appeal team knows how frustrating a denial can be, especially when you have done your best to explain your situation. We step in to review what went wrong, strengthen the evidence, and present your case in a clearer and more complete way on appeal.

Turn a Disability Denial Into a Plan for Appeal
A denial letter can be confusing and discouraging. You may wonder if it is even worth appealing, or if you should simply start over. The reality is that many people who are eventually approved for disability benefits were denied at least once before.
Idiart Law Group helps you understand your denial and decide on the best path forward. When we review your disability appeal, we look at:
- The reasons Social Security gave for denying your claim
- Whether important medical evidence or records were missing
- How your symptoms and limitations were described in your forms
- Whether Social Security correctly applied its rules to your age, education, and past work
- Whether you are at the reconsideration, hearing, or later stage of appeal
After this review, we explain your appeal options in clear language and outline a strategy to strengthen your case.
Free Review of Your Denial and Appeal Options
If you received a denial for SSDI or SSI, you do not have to face the appeal process alone. There are strict deadlines and multiple levels of appeal, and the way you respond to the denial can affect the rest of your case.
Our disability team offers a free evaluation of your denial letter and your case. We will:
- Examine your denial and explain what it really means
- Identify missing evidence or problems in your initial application
- Discuss whether an appeal, new application, or both may make sense
- Outline the next steps and what to expect at each stage of the appeal
Idiart Law Group handles Social Security Disability cases on a contingency fee basis. That means No Fee Until We Win. Attorney fees in most SSD cases are a percentage of past-due benefits and must be approved by Social Security. If there is no recovery, you do not pay an attorney fee.

HOW IT WORKS
Appealing a Social Security Disability Denial With Idiart Law Group
A strong appeal is more than simply saying “I disagree.” It means correcting gaps in your file, responding directly to Social Security’s reasons for denying you, and clearly showing how your conditions prevent you from working. Here is how we help.
Step 1
Review Your Denial and Deadlines
We carefully review your denial letter, your initial application, and any forms Social Security used in making its decision. We also confirm important deadlines so your right to appeal is protected. Then we explain, in plain language, what went wrong and what we can do next.
Step 2
Strengthen the Evidence
We help gather missing medical records, test results, and statements from your providers or people who know you. We work with you to better explain your symptoms, limitations, and day-to-day challenges so that Social Security sees the full picture.
Step 3
File the Appeal
We prepare and file the appeal paperwork that applies to your stage of the process, such as a request for reconsideration or a request for a hearing before an Administrative Law Judge. Our team handles forms, follow-up, and communication with Social Security.
Step 4
Pursue the Claim
If your case goes to a hearing, we help you understand what to expect, what the judge may ask, and how to clearly talk about your conditions and work history. We appear with you at the hearing and present arguments and evidence in support of your disability claim.
