When benefits have been stopped, this is different than a denial. This will probably cause confusion and stress for the client. We recommend that clients submit a Request for Reconsideration that asks a case worker from the SSA to look over the application again. This is always the best place to start, but clients might want us to send that form to the SSA. We know how to complete the form and support our request with documentation.nnIf that is not possible, we will submit a request for a hearing with an administrative law judge, which allows us to meet a judge who decides these cases every day. Although clients can submit this paperwork on their own, they can come to LeViness, Tolzman & Hamilton for help at any time.
