Frequently Asked Questions
What does a social security disability lawyer in Encinitas do?
A social security disability lawyer helps you gather medical evidence, complete paperwork, and represent you at hearings before an administrative law judge. They work to prove that your disability meets the SSA listing or prevents you from doing any substantial gainful activity.
How long does a disability claim take in California?
Initial decisions in California typically take 3 to 6 months. If you appeal, the hearing process can take 12 to 18 months or longer. The San Diego hearing office handles cases for Encinitas residents.
Can I work while my disability claim is pending in California?
You can work but your earnings must stay below the substantial gainful activity limit, which is $1,550 per month in 2024 for non-blind individuals. Earning more may disqualify you from benefits during the waiting period.
