Disability pension lawyer Bucharest

Description

Disability pension lawyer in Bucharest

Has your disability pension application been rejected, do you dispute the amount, or have you received an unfavourable medical decision? We assess the medical documents and the pension authority’s decision separately to identify the appropriate legal route.

The medical decision and the pension decision are different acts

Work capacity is assessed by the medical expert in accordance with the law. The pension authority’s decision concerns pension entitlements. Challenging one decision does not automatically replace challenging the other. We check who issued each decision, its reasoning, proof of service and the procedure applicable to it.

Situations in which we provide assistance

Rejection of a pension application or determination of pension entitlements.
Legal challenge of acts regarding work capacity.
Reviewing, amending, suspending or terminating the rights, as the case may be.
Review of documents concerning contribution periods and the income taken into account.
Preparation of appeals and representation in litigation.

Legal analysis does not replace medical evaluation

We do not establish the diagnosis or the degree of disability during the legal consultation. We verify compliance with the procedure and the documents on which the contested act is based. If specialized evidence is required, we analyze the method of requesting it and its relevance in the case, without guaranteeing a specific classification.

Check the date of the communication immediately

The deadlines and the recipients of the appeal may be different for the medical decision and the pension decision. Keep the envelope, the electronic confirmation or other proof of communication. Do not wait for the response to an ordinary petition assuming that it prolongs the time limit for an appeal.

Where the appeal is filed and within what timeframe

The medical decision regarding work capacity

In the procedure regulated by Law no. 360/2023, the appeal must be submitted within 30 days of the notification to the issuing medical expert office. The resolution belongs to the regional medical appeals committee. The decision of this committee may be appealed in court within 30 days of the notification.

The decision issued by the territorial pension authority

For this decision, Article 127 of Law no. 360/2023 provides for appeal to the competent court within 45 days of notification. This term must not be confused with the term applicable to the medical decision. Decisions not appealed within the deadline become final.

We verify each act and proof of communication before calculating the deadline. For older acts or situations subject to a special regime, we first identify the applicable law; the above deadlines do not automatically apply to any pension-related document.

Documents for consultation

Prepare the medical decision and pension decisions, proof of service, the application submitted and any replies received. Records of contribution periods, income and relevant medical reports are also useful. Tell us about any scheduled review or proceedings already underway. Medical documents should be sent only by the method agreed with the law office.

Frequently asked questions

Does a disability certificate automatically replace the medical decision for pension?

Do not assume that they are equivalent. The documents and entitlements are subject to their own procedures, which must be checked.

Can I only contest the amount?

We analyze what you consider to be wrong and the documents supporting the request, separately from the medical evaluation.

Can you guarantee the granting of the pension?

No. We are preparing the legal proceedings and the necessary evidence, and the solution belongs to the competent authority or court.
