    Office of Disability Adjudication and Review

    The Office of Disability Adjudication and Review (ODAR) administers the hearings and appeals program for the Social Security Administration. ODAR is in charge of conducting hearings for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI).

    Disability Hearings are held at an ODAR hearing office.  The main ODAR office is also responsible for the Appeals Council where they evaluate the decisions of Administrative Law Judges concerning the appeal filed by claimants.

    ODAR has over 140 hearing offices nationwide where approximately 1,100 Administrative Law Judges conduct hearings. In Southern California, we are in the ODAR region called “San Francisco Region 9” which is 1 of 10 ODAR regions.

    Before you attend a disability hearing, make sure you know where your hearing office is located and make sure you give yourself plenty of time to get to your hearing on time. You do not want to be late to your disability hearing.
