I have a 9" under mount sink that was just installed, love it but now the garbage disposal will not drain .. the drain is lower than the pipe in the wall.

I see it too often. Try a well stocked plumbing supply house and see if they have, or can order a low inlet trap. This may be enough to bring your trap high enough to drain right. Do you have pics of this setup you've gotten yourself into?
