Frequently Asked Questions
What does a social security disability lawyer in Laguna Niguel do?
A social security disability lawyer helps you apply for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI). They gather medical evidence, complete paperwork, and represent you at hearings. In California, they also help you meet the strict medical and work credit requirements.
How long do I have to appeal a denial in California?
In California, you generally have 60 days from the date you receive a denial notice to file an appeal. This time limit is strict and applies to all levels of appeal, including reconsideration and hearing requests. Missing this deadline can require you to start the entire application process over.
What is the success rate for disability claims in California?
Nationally, about 40 percent of initial applications are approved. In California, the approval rate is similar, but appeals significantly improve your chances. With legal representation, the approval rate at the hearing level can be much higher, often exceeding 60 percent.
