Social Security Disability and SSI Claims

When Should I See An Attorney?

When you are disabled and know you will not be working for at least 12 months, contact a Social Security Disability Attorney. The attorney will be able to assist you in determining if you are disabled as that term is interpreted by the Social Security Act. When you go for your first meeting with your attorney be sure to bring:

Denial Notices
Any Correspondence From The Social Security Administration
Any Medical Records That You Have

How Much Are The Attorney's Fees?

Fees are set by legislation. They are normally paid directly to the attorney from the Federal Government when your case is settled. There are costs involved when retaining counsel in a Social Security Disability and/or SSI Claim. You will be obligated to pay any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the attorney in your representation, normally at the conclusion of the case. Such expenses usually involve charges for copying medical records and payments to doctors for medical reports. In most Social Security Disability cases, the attorney's fee is withheld from your lump sum payment for past-due benefits. The attorney does not get paid unless your case is won. There should be no charge for an initial consultation.

Do All Attorneys Know About Social Security Disability?

Not all attorneys practice before the Social Security Administration. You will do best to find an attorney familiar with the maze of Social Security Regulations and the somewhat unusual Social Security procedures. The National Organization of Social Security Representatives (NOSSCR) can direct you to an attorney in your city who is familiar with these ever changing Social Security Disability laws, or go to the internet and look for www.social-security-lawyers.net/.

You are disabled if you have physical or mental health problems or a combination of problems severe enough to keep you from working in a regular, paying job for at least 12 months. If you have been denied benefits by the Social Security Administration for Social Security Disability or Supplemental Security Income you have the right to file for Reconsideration or a Hearing. You may be entitled to benefits and you have the right to legal representation to help you analyze your case and prepare for a Hearing. Fees are normally paid directly to the attorney out of past due benefits from the Federal government when your case is settled. There is no charge for your initial consultation.
