Where Lowell Disability Cases Are Heard

Lowell does not have its own hearing office. If your claim reaches the hearing stage, it is assigned to the Social Security Office of Hearings Operations in Lawrence, at 439 South Union Street, which handles appeals for the Lowell, Lawrence, and Haverhill areas. Knowing that office and how its judges weigh medical and vocational evidence is part of preparing a Lowell case well.

Most hearings are now held by phone or online video, so you can be represented by our Cambridge office without traveling. We handle claims throughout the state; you can also read our Massachusetts Social Security Disability page.

Why Lowell Claims Get Denied, and What We Do About It

Most denials come from medical records that do not clearly tie your condition to specific work limitations, vocational factors that were never developed, or a claim built without a clear legal theory.

We work a Lowell claim on four tracks. We identify the theory of the case, the exact medical and vocational evidence that supports approval under the law. We develop the medical evidence, gathering records and treating-source opinions. We develop the vocational evidence with an independent specialist who examines your past work and what work you can still do. And we argue the law that decides these claims.
