Applying for or appealing a permanent disability decision

We prepare the file before the social security institute with the medical evidence that supports the degree you claim, and appeal a refusal or an insufficient degree.

Permanent disability benefit

What is included

  • Review of the clinical history and of the documented limitations
  • Preparing and filing the application
  • Prior claim and court claim if the degree is refused or falls short

What is included and what is not promised

Permanent disability is decided on what the medical reports say, not on how unwell you feel. Most of the work is gathering and ordering those reports so the medical panel sees what actually limits you.

What it includes: review of the clinical history and of the documented limitations; preparing and filing the application; prior claim and court claim if the degree is refused or falls short. What it does not include: we cannot guarantee the degree or the award: they are decided by the assessment panel and, where relevant, by the employment court.

Documents you will need

  • Full medical reports and diagnostic tests.
  • Employment history and recent payslips.
  • The authority's decision if you already have one.

Indicative timing

We answer your enquiry within 1 working day and send the written quote within 2 working days.

Once your documents are complete, we prepare the file between 7 and 15 working days.

The social security institute usually decides within months; a court claim adds its own calendar.

See the pricing page for how we charge this kind of matter.

How it works

Estimated duration: 15 days.

  1. We identify the exact procedure

    We read your medical reports and tell you which degree is realistic to request and by which route: a direct application or a review of a degree already recognised.

  2. Document list and quote

    We ask for your medical history sorted by condition and your employment record. Written price for the administrative stage.

  3. Filing and receipt

    We file the application with the social security institute and prepare you for the medical board examination.

  4. Tracking and corrections

    If the degree is refused or falls short, we tell you as soon as the decision arrives and prepare the prior claim within the deadline.

What to have at hand

  • Full medical reports and diagnostic tests
  • Employment history and recent payslips
  • The authority's decision if you already have one

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a private expert report?

It is often what changes the outcome. We tell you whether it is worth it in your case and what it costs.

I was given a lower degree than I claimed.

It is appealed the same way as a refusal: a prior claim, then a court claim.

Can I work with a recognised disability?

It depends on the degree. We explain what each one allows before applying.
