Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a Social Security disability claim take?

Initial claims can take 3 to 6 months for a decision. Appeals often take longer. Borah & Shaffer works to prepare strong cases that succeed without unnecessary delays. Call (408) 996-8650 with questions about your timeline.

What's the difference between SSDI and SSI?

Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) is based on your work history and payroll taxes. Supplemental Security Income (SSI) is a need-based program for people with limited income and resources. You may qualify for one or both depending on your situation.

Do you handle appeals of denied disability claims?

Yes. Appeals are a crucial part of the firm's practice. Many people who were initially denied succeed when represented by experienced counsel who properly documents their medical condition and limitations.
