If you live in Gorham, Maine and cannot work due to a disability, a social security disability lawyer can help you apply for benefits or appeal a denial. Maine has a high approval rate for initial claims compared to some states, but many cases still require a hearing before an administrative law judge. A lawyer familiar with the Portland hearing office can guide you through the process and gather necessary medical evidence.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time limit to appeal a social security disability denial in Maine?
You have 60 days from the date you receive the denial notice to file an appeal. This deadline is strict and includes weekends and holidays. A lawyer can help ensure your appeal is filed on time.
How does Maine define disability for social security benefits?
Maine follows the federal definition: you must be unable to do any substantial gainful activity due to a medically determinable physical or mental impairment expected to last at least 12 months or result in death. The Social Security Administration uses a five-step sequential evaluation process.
Can I work part-time while my disability claim is pending in Gorham?
You can work part-time, but your earnings must stay below the substantial gainful activity limit, which in 2024 is $1,550 per month for non-blind individuals. Earning more than this may hurt your claim. A lawyer can advise on how work affects your case.
