Hiring a Davis Disability Attorney or Advocate
If you are not familiar with the Social Security Disability application process, you may be under the impression that you will only need to fill out a few forms to receive benefits. Unfortunately, the application process can be much more complicated than that.
Qualifying for disability benefits will require you to stay extremely organized and on top of many different pieces of information. Without the help of a lawyer, it can be very easy to make errors that could potentially harm the outcome of your claim. A lawyer will keep you on track and can take over the majority of the workload.

Davis Social Security Disability Appeal Hearings
After filing an initial disability application, more than half of all applicants will be denied. Fortunately, many of those who are denied initially are approved during the appeals proceedings. However, if you are getting ready to attend an appeal hearing, we urge you to seek the services of a qualified Davis attorney. Appearing before a judge can be stressful and overwhelming. A legal professional will know what to expect and can prepare you ahead of time—ultimately increasing your chances of being approved.
If, while waiting for your appeal hearing, you encounter financial or medical distress, speak to your attorney about congressional inquiry. This means that you or your lawyer can call a local congressperson and explain why you need your hearing to be held sooner. If the congressman or woman agrees, they can contact the hearing office to attempt to have your hearing held sooner.
Davis Social Security Disability appeal hearings are customarily held in the Sacramento hearing office—which is about 20 miles away from Davis. And your local congressperson's office is:
412 G Street
Davis, CA 95616
Phone: 530-753-5301
Fax: 530-753-5614
