Social Security disability is a federal benefits process, so representation is not limited to the communities closest to our Culver City office. Availability depends on the medical evidence, work history, financial circumstances, procedural posture, and deadlines.
We assist with SSDI and SSI applications, medical documentation, denied claims, reconsideration, administrative hearings, and later appeals when appropriate.
A disability application or appeal can require detailed information about medical treatment, work history, job duties, medications, and the ways a condition limits sustained work activity. Social Security permits a claimant to appoint an attorney or another qualified representative to assist with an appeal.

Social Security Disability Insurance is generally connected to a worker's earnings record and Social Security contributions. Supplemental Security Income is generally based on disability or age together with limited income and resources. Some people may qualify for both programs.
A denial may be appealed. Social Security's process can include reconsideration, a hearing before an administrative law judge, Appeals Council review, and a federal district court action. Deadlines apply, so the notice should be reviewed promptly.
