Social Security Request
for Reconsideration
in Madison

Wisconsin social security lawyer Donald Becker
Your First Option if You’re Denied Disability Benefits

If you applied for Social Security Disability benefits, only to find out the Social Security Administration (SSA) has denied your claim, your first appeal is known as reconsideration.

At this stage in the appeals process – should you choose to appeal – all of your paperwork is sent to the Disability Determination Bureau (DDB). The DDB is a Wisconsin state agency contracted by the SSA to review cases that have been denied.

This part of the appeal is strictly resubmitting paperwork. In fact, it’s very similar to the application phase as someone from the DDB reviews your application and any updated information to make a decision on your case.

If your case is due to a mental health condition, pain or fatigue, it may be harder to prove at this stage in the appeals process. Of all the appeals that go before the DDB in Wisconsin, about 15% are approved. If you have questions about a request for reconsideration,  call Becker Law Office today.
