Tampa, FL personal injury attorney Mark Lee addresses what to do if your Social Security Disability claim is denied. He shares that when a Social Security claim is denied, there are multiple levels of appeal available. At each stage, claimants have a 60-day window to request reconsideration or appeal the decision. The process begins with the initial application, followed by a request for reconsideration. If necessary, a hearing can be requested before a judge. Beyond that, an appeal can be made to the Appeals Council, and ultimately to federal court. He emphasizes that meeting the 60-day deadline at each level is critical, making it essential to file appeals promptly.
