At the Law Offices of Norman J. Homen, we recognize the challenges you face when applying for Social Security Disability (SSD) benefits. If you live in Anaheim our experienced attorneys can help simplify this complex process. With over 30 years representing SSDI and SSI claimants in California, we are committed to assisting you at every step.
Understanding SSDI and SSI Benefits
Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) provides financial support to individuals who have worked and paid into the Social Security system, while Supplemental Security Income (SSI) supports disabled individuals with limited income and resources. Our attorneys will determine which program matches your circumstances and guide you accordingly.
Reasons Social Security Disability Claims Are Denied
Initial disability applications are often denied for several reasons, including:
- Insufficient medical documentation
- Application errors or missing information
- Failing to follow medical treatment instructions
- Excess income or assets
We help correct these issues and prepare strong appeals to improve your chances of success.
Navigating the SSD Application and Appeals Process in Anaheim
If your initial application is denied, our attorneys will help you through each phase of the appeals process:
- Reconsideration: A second review of your case by the SSA
- Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) Hearing: Held locally at the Anaheim or Orange hearing offices
- Appeals Council: A further administrative review if necessary
- Federal Court: Available for selected cases requiring additional appeals
Our familiarity with the Anaheim Social Security offices gives you a valuable advantage.
How Hiring an Attorney Benefits Your SSD Case
Working with an attorney experienced in Social Security Disability claims provides significant benefits, including:
- Preparing accurate, detailed, and persuasive applications and appeals
- Organizing critical medical evidence
- Advocating for you during hearings
- Minimizing delays to obtain your benefits efficiently
How Long Does the Process Take?
In Anaheim, SSD claims typically take several months to reach an initial decision. If appeals are necessary, the process can extend significantly longer. Our attorneys actively manage your claim to reduce delays wherever possible.
Our Attorney Fees and Costs
We handle Social Security Disability cases on a contingency basis. You do not pay any upfront attorney fees, and we only collect a fee if we successfully obtain your benefits. All attorney fees are regulated by the Social Security Administration.
