Your Case Is Our Cause

Although the Social Security Disability Appeals Council does not review every case, in many situations it will be worthwhile to ask the Appeals Council to reconsider an unfavorable ALJ ruling.

If we successfully obtain a disability claim reconsideration, the Appeals Council may review your file itself or direct the ALJ in your case to review your file one more time. At this stage, we will look for issues that the ALJ might have missed when reviewing your file, or information that has become available since you first filed your application. Our Oregon lawyers know what makes for a strong claim, and our experience becomes your advantage as you seek the benefits you may be eligible to receive.
