Social Security Reviews and Appeals 2025

This program is an excerpt from the 2025 Wisconsin Equal Justice Conference.

The SSDI/SSI survival guide

For clients facing denials of Social Security disability benefits, every missed deadline or incomplete record can take them right back to step one. With most initial claims denied by the Social Security Administration (SSA),1 knowing how to challenge decisions—and when persistence pays off—can make the difference between success and frustration.

Social Security Reviews and Appeals guides you through the entire process, from determining eligibility to reconsideration, hearings, and federal court review. You’ll gain the insight and strategies needed to help clients through a system that often feels overwhelming, while improving the accuracy, efficiency, and fairness of every claim you handle.
