Social Security Disability Appeals Nationwide Olinsky Law Group is one of the largest filers of Social Security Disability Federal Court cases in the country. If you’re an attorney or non-attorney representative and your client’s case needs to be appealed to Federal Court, our help can be invaluable. Our Federal Court Practice Group Attorneys will represent your client in Federal Court. Olinsky Law Group has written briefs in over 11,000 Appeals Council cases. We know the issues which the A.C. is remanding on. Many of those cases were referred from attorneys and non-attorneys like you. We Assist Attorneys and Non-Attorney Representatives at The Appeals Council and in Federal Court. If the A.C. denies, we screen the case for Federal Court automatically. A typical Federal Court case takes an experienced attorney approximately 20+ hours to write the brief and reply; even more time to write an objection if necessary. With paralegals assisting, your office will commit 30-40 hours on the case. Do you have 30-40 hours to devote to a Federal Court appeal? You don't but we do. We have a whole team of experienced Federal Court attorneys to take your client's case to Federal Court.
