Frequently Asked Questions
What does a social security disability lawyer in Dania Beach do?
A lawyer helps you prepare and file your disability application, gather medical evidence, and appeal denied claims. They can represent you at hearings before the Social Security Administration. In Florida, the process can take 12 to 18 months or longer.
How long do I have to appeal a denied claim in Florida?
You have 60 days from the date of the denial notice to file an appeal. This time limit is set by federal Social Security rules and applies to all states including Florida. Missing this deadline can result in starting the application process over.
Can I get disability benefits for a mental health condition in Florida?
Yes, mental health conditions such as depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder can qualify for benefits. You must provide medical records showing the condition limits your ability to work. Florida courts follow the same federal listing criteria for mental impairments.
