If you live in Gilroy and cannot work due to a medical condition, a social security disability lawyer can help you apply for benefits or appeal a denial. California law requires the Social Security Administration to consider your specific work history and medical records. A local attorney understands the hearing process for Santa Clara County and can assist with gathering evidence to support your claim.

What Does a Social Security Disability Lawyer in Gilroy Cost?

Most social security disability lawyers in California work on a contingency fee basis. This means you pay nothing upfront. The fee is typically 25 percent of your past due benefits, up to a maximum of 7,200 dollars set by the Social Security Administration. If you do not win your case, you generally owe no fee. Costs for medical records or expert reports may be added separately. This is general information, not legal advice.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do I have to appeal a denied disability claim in Gilroy?
You have 60 days from the date you receive your denial letter to file an appeal with the Social Security Administration. This deadline is strict and includes weekends and holidays. A lawyer can help you prepare the required paperwork on time.
What is the difference between SSDI and SSI in California?
SSDI is for people who have worked enough years and paid Social Security taxes. SSI is for people with limited income and resources, regardless of work history. Both programs require you to have a qualifying disability that is expected to last at least 12 months or result in death.
Can I work part time while my disability claim is pending in Gilroy?
You can work part time, but your earnings must stay below the substantial gainful activity limit. In 2024, that limit is 1,550 dollars per month for non-blind individuals. Working too much can hurt your claim, so it is best to discuss your situation with a lawyer.
