Social Security and Supplemental Security Income

The government offers monthly income benefits and healthcare benefits to disabled individuals and the elderly through Social Security and Supplemental Security Income (SSI). However, the process for successfully obtaining benefits can be difficult. At R. Steve Bowden & Associates, we offer a team of focused paralegals and a Social Security lawyer with extensive experience handling Social Security claims, denials, and appeals. Contact our Greensboro SSI lawyer, Jarvis Harris today for a free initial consultation.

The Process of Obtaining Benefits

The Social Security Administration (SSA) typically denies applications for benefits twice before finally approving them. Therefore, it is important to be patient and have confidence in an experienced attorney - such as our Social Security lawyer, Jarvis Harris. At R. Steve Bowden & Associates, we provide experienced representation from the initial filing for benefits through the various stages of denied claims until ultimately, benefits are approved. The following is a summary of the typical application process.

• Phase 1
  • File Social Security Claim
  • Receive initial denial of benefits
• Phase 2
  • Request for reconsideration
  • Receive second denial of benefits
• Phase 3
  • Request for hearing
  • Testify before a judge regarding the need for benefits and why the claim should be approved
• Phase 4
  • If benefits are not approved after the hearing, we will file a notice of appeal and represent the client through the appellate process
