FEES

Social Security Disability and SSI Attorneys Fees

Our firm utilizes a contingent fee agreement approved by the Social Security Administration. We are only paid if we win the case. Our fee is either $5300 or 25 percent of the past-due benefits — whichever is less. Our maximum fee at the Social Security hearing level is $5300. Our fee maximum of $5300 does not apply if the case is litigated beyond the hearing level. This ordinarily involves a case taken into the Federal Court system. In addition to the fees, the claimant is responsible for reimbursing us for any costs incurred to obtain medical records. We do not charge a fee out of a person's future Social Security benefits.

Veterans' Affairs Disability Attorneys Fees

Our firm uses a contingent fee agreement approved by the Department of Veterans' Affairs (VA). We are not paid a fee if we do not win benefits for the veteran. A fee can be charged only in cases being appealed to the Court of Appeals for Veterans' Claims after an adverse BVA (Board of Veterans' Appeals) decision or if we reopen a claim denied by the Board of Veterans' Appeals within the last year. Our fee is 20% of past due benefits obtained on behalf of the veteran. The veteran is responsible for reimbursing certain costs such as court filing fees and reviews performed by medical doctors whether or not benefits are obtained. We do not charge a fee out of the veteran's future VA benefits.

Railroad Retirement Disability Attorneys Fees

Our firm utilizes a contingent fee agreement. We are only paid if we win the case. Our fee is 25% of the past due benefits which are awarded to the disabled claimant. In addition to the fees, the claimant is responsible for reimbursing us for any costs incurred to obtain medical records. We do not charge a fee out of a person's future Railroad Retirement Disability Annuity.
