What does a Social Security Disability lawyer in Porterville do?
A Social Security Disability lawyer helps you prepare and file your application for SSDI or SSI benefits. They can represent you at hearings before an administrative law judge and help appeal denials. Their goal is to ensure your medical records and work history are presented correctly to meet California and federal 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 with the Social Security Administration. Missing this deadline can result in losing your right to benefits, so it is important to act quickly and consult a lawyer.
