It’s possible to access many such SSA services online. However, if you have questions, you might benefit from visiting a field office. Other reasons to visit a Marion Social Security office include:
Filing for SSI or SSDI
You can file for SSDI or SSI at the Asheville Social Security office. Our Marion Social Security Disability lawyers can help you prepare in numerous ways before you start the application process. For example, we can help you gather medical and personal evidence needed to show that you have a disability and meet other relevant criteria to qualify for these programs.
Investigating Benefits Issues
If you haven’t received your Social Security Disability benefits as expected, or the SSA sent benefits to you, but the amount they paid is less than you’re supposed to be eligible to receive, you can address the issue with the Asheville Social Security office.
This is another instance in which you may prepare ahead of time by coordinating with our Marion Social Security Disability law firm.
Appealing a Denial of Benefits
It is highly likely that the SSA will deny your initial application for benefits. Per the SSA, the most common reason for denial is a lack of sufficient medical evidence.
However, you have the right to appeal the SSA’s decision. Although doing so isn’t required, visiting a local SSA field office is an option when you wish to begin the appeal process.
Keep in mind that you can still seek professional assistance with your case even if you didn’t initially hire a lawyer. Although we at Farmer & Morris Law, PLLC are available to help you from the start, we can also assist with your appeal if you didn’t hire us to begin with.
Doing so could be quite beneficial. If you check our Testimonials page, you’ll find clients leave positive reviews. In reference to a case in which we took over the appeal and got an approval after the SSA denied a claim, the client said:
- “I am forever grateful to them and would recommend this firm to anyone facing a disability appeal.” — Tammi K.
