Admin • December 1, 2021
Navigating the field of Social Security disability benefits can be exhausting. You need to compile substantial evidence and present your case in the best light possible to be granted any benefits. The whole process can feel endless.

difference in your case. We have served the area of Detroit, MI for over 60 years, advocating for the rights of individuals like you.
How the Process Works
If you are filing for the first time, you may feel overwhelmed with the amount of work you need to do. You have to prove your inability to work in
order to gain any benefits, and this process requires considerable amounts of medical evidence and documentary paperwork. Working with a
Social Security attorney can relieve you of this burden.
Your attorney can compile the necessary paperwork and evidence for your case. At Gordon & Pont, we are familiar with every type of medical
documentation you will need to get your case approved for benefits. Our extensive experience is available to you every moment of the process.

Your attorney can help you appeal your denial. This will require more time and documentation on your part, but with the help of your attorney, you can still get the benefits you need.

A recent Washington Post article revealed how frequently the SSA loses when Claimants appeal their denials in Federal Court. Remands back to the ALJ are at a record high. "In the last two fiscal years, federal judges considering appeals for denied benefits found fault with almost 6 in every 10 cases and sent them back to administrative law judges at Social Security for new hearings - the highest rate of rejections in years, agency statistics show." Why is this Happening? "Federal judges have complained of legal errors, inaccurate assessments of whether claimants can work, failures to consider medical evidence, and factual mistakes, according to court rulings and Social Security’s own data." The SSA is making more mistakes and wrongfully denying more claims. “The system has become one of ‘how do we deny this claim’ rather than ‘what is the right answer in this person’s case?’” ... “And the Federal Courts agree: ‘You have to do a better job.’” Success Stories: "At his hearing in March, a new Social Security judge considered the rulings by three federal judges who found that the agency failed to properly consider the severity of his headaches, nerve damage, and other impairments by ignoring treatment notes from his doctors. An outside doctor Social Security hired to examine him also described severe “pain and anxiety” from his injuries. He prepared to wait for months for another rejection. Instead, the written decision came just two weeks later: Sheldon had been awarded the monthly benefits — along with $205,000 in back pay. His first check landed in his bank account this month."
