Frequently Asked Questions

How long do I have to appeal a social security disability denial in Carmichael?
In California, you generally have 60 days from the date you receive a denial notice to file an appeal. This deadline is strict, so it is important to contact a lawyer as soon as possible after a denial to avoid losing your right to appeal.
What is the difference between SSDI and SSI in California?
SSDI (Social Security Disability Insurance) is for people who have worked and paid Social Security taxes, while SSI (Supplemental Security Income) is for people with limited income and resources. A Carmichael lawyer can help determine which program you qualify for and assist with the application for either or both.
Do I need to see a specific doctor for my disability case in Carmichael?
You do not need a specific doctor, but your medical records must show that your condition meets Social Security's definition of disability. A lawyer can help ensure your treating physicians provide thorough documentation that supports your claim under California and federal guidelines.
