Why SSDI Claims Are Often Denied

Nearly 65-70% of SSDI initial applications are denied. But with Advocate’s expert guidance and innovative technology, you can fight back and improve your chances of approval.

Why Expert Representation Matters at Your Hearing

You’re not on trial, but your ability to present your case clearly and accurately is critical. Being prepared to answer the judge’s questions with confidence and detail makes a big difference.

This is where Advocate’s team of EDPNAs provide real value. Our in-depth hearing preparation and professional representation improve your odds of approval and take the pressure off you.

I didn’t know where to start with my app before signing up with Advocate. The process is long and confusing but the team always picked up or responded to my questions.

My case was fairly unusual and other organizations were unwilling to help me. But Advocate agreed to help almost immediately. They made the whole process so much smoother and easier for me and they kept me updated and informed throughout the whole thing. I had many different people working on my case (and they were all very helpful and kind), but the person who represented me during my hearing was Priscilla. She did an excellent job explaining things and answering my questions. Thanks to everyone at Advocate I was able to get a fully favorable decision after the hearing. I highly recommend them to anyone who is currently at the hearing stage / second denial.
