Tampa social security lawyer, the basic primer
Q: How long will it take until a hearing is scheduled for a social security disability case? A: Once your claim for social security disability benefits goes to the Office of Hearings and Appeals, it may take quite some time until a hearing is scheduled. Sometimes it can take up to two years before you have a date for a hearing. The scheduling delay is often dependent upon the backlog in your particular state. It is important, therefore, to not add any more time to the wait by submitting your request for a hearing as quickly as possible. If you do not already have a social security lawyer, it would be wise to seek one to represent your case during the hearing.
