Civil litigation refers to any type of legal dispute between two or more parties where the subject is not a criminal matter. Instead, the goal of a civil dispute is to obtain monetary damages or equitable relief. Because there are many different types of cases or disputes which can be classified as civil litigation, a civil litigation attorney must be knowledgeable in many different areas and have experience representing clients in trials, hearings, arbitrations, and mediations, both in federal and state courts.
We handle civil litigation including trials, discovery, motions, hearings, settlement negotiations, mediations, arbitrations, and appeals. Our attorneys have represented individuals and businesses in a wide range of civil disputes.
If your application for Social Security disability benefits has been denied, you probably have questions: Why was my claim denied? What does this mean for me and my family? Can I appeal? First, know that disability claim denials are very common. Two thirds of initial applications are denied, often due to technical errors in the application process. In these cases a judge will not even consider your medical condition. If your application does not meet the stringent technical requirements it will be denied.
Some but not all technical denials can be appealed. Examples of appealable errors include errors in calculating assets and income, not working long enough or recently enough to qualify for SSDI, and exceeding the income threshold for an SSI claim. You have only a 60 day window from the date you receive your denial notice in which to file an appeal. If you believe your disability benefits claim was denied in error and you would like to appeal, contact Horgan Law today to discuss your case.
