Social Security Disability Lawyers Who Know the System
To receive SSDI benefits, you must prove that you suffer from a physical or mental impairment that prevents you from working. The process involves medical records, work history documentation, and often multiple rounds of review. We've helped thousands of Arkansans navigate this process over the past three decades.

Most Initial Claims Are Denied. That's Not Where Your Case Ends.
Getting a denial letter is discouraging — but it doesn't mean you don't qualify. Many initial SSDI claims are denied due to incomplete paperwork, missing medical records, or technical errors. Our attorneys have successfully appealed thousands of denials over the past three decades and know what it takes to help you through the process.
The Appeals Process
- Reconsideration — A different examiner reviews your claim with any new evidence
- ALJ Hearing — You appear before an Administrative Law Judge. We prepare you and present your case.
- Appeals Council — If the ALJ denies your claim, we can request review by the Appeals Council
- Federal Court — In rare cases, we can take your case to federal court

Your condition has lasted or is expected to last at least 12 months
