Florida social security lawyers, a review of the topic
Q: Is it true that everybody's social security disability claim gets denied the first time? A: While you may hear plenty of horror stories about constant rejection from the social security disability program, the truth is that not all first claims are denied. In truth, the SSA has no rule in place that directs them to deny all first claims. One the other hand, it is also true that first claims are denied quite often, and that the highest success rate with social security disability claims is in appeals, not on first application. Of all social security disability claims, about 70% are denied the first time they apply. Unfortunately, many of those who are denied do not have a full understanding of what they should do in order to be approved next time they apply.
