ATTORNEY FEES
In Social Security and SSI cases, the attorney's approved fee is withheld from the lump sum payment.
Although we do not charge for our services unless we are successful, you are responsible for paying costs as they occur, including payment of any fees charged by doctors for their reports.
If you have any questions once you leave our office, feel free to telephone us. You should advise us if you experience any change in your condition, if you receive any notice from Social Security, or if you move or change your telephone number.
Our office will work hand in hand with your worker's compensation or personal injury lawyer to ensure that the best possible outcome in your Social Security disability matter. Our practice is limited to Social Security Disability Claims. We understand that any referral made to us is for that area alone. We will refer you back to your other attorney should additional legal matters arise in areas outside of Social Security Disability. In this manner, we can assure that you receive the best legal representation in all of your legal matters.
Our office handles Social Security disability and SSI cases on a contingent fee basis. In other words, we are paid only if we succeed in getting benefits for you. A written copy of the retainer agreement will be given to you. All fees or fee agreements must be approved by the Social Security Administration. We generally request a fee of 25% of the retroactive benefits, although we may have a specified minimum fee.
