Why location matters!

Why your area matters in a Social Security disability claim.!

Disability law is federal, but the people who decide your claim are local. Where you live shapes approval rates, wait times, and what evidence wins.

01

State Disability Determination Services (DDS)

Each state runs its own DDS office, which evaluates the medical evidence in your claim. Approval rates and processing times vary significantly by state.

02

OHO Hearing Offices and ALJ Approval Rates

The Office of Hearings Operations handles ALJ hearings regionally. Wait times and ALJ approval rates differ by office.

03

State SSI Supplements

Some states pay an additional SSI supplement on top of the federal benefit - knowing which affects what a claimant actually receives each month.

04

Medicaid and Medicare Interactions

SSI recipients qualify for Medicaid, state-administered, so the scope and speed of enrollment varies. SSDI recipients become eligible for Medicare after a 24-month waiting period.

Do I need to live in one of your office cities to work with your firm?

No. We represent clients throughout Northern California and, in many cases, nationwide. The office list shows where we have a local presence, not a limit on who we help.

What if there is no Sackett & Associates office in my city?

Choose the location nearest to you and reach out from there. Much of a disability claim happens by phone, mail, and video hearing, so your distance from an office rarely changes how we represent you.

Do you handle Continuing Disability Reviews?

Yes. Along with initial applications and appeals, we represent beneficiaries whose benefits are under review by SSA.

How are your attorney fees structured?

Our fee is set by law: 25% of your back pay, capped at $9,200. You pay nothing unless we win your case. No retainer. No surprise bills.
