Our Fees

Fees in a Social Security disability case are paid on a contingency basis, and are subject to approval by the Social Security Administration. This means that you, as the client, do not pay any fee to us, unless and until you receive a favorable decision. This is true, regardless of how extensive our efforts on your behalf might be.

If your case is successfully concluded at the initial administrative hearing level or at any stage before that, by law, the fee you pay us will be the lesser of either 25% of the past-due Social Security and/or Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits owed to you, and any auxiliary beneficiaries (eligible children and spouse), or $6,000.00, or the applicable maximum set by the Social Security Administration in accordance with the Social Security Act.

If an appeal of all or a part of the administrative hearing decision is filed, and is successful, by law, the fee you pay us will be a maximum of 25% of the past-due benefits owed to you, and any auxiliary beneficiaries, i.e. minor children.

Regardless of whether or not your case is successful, separate and apart from any fee that you might pay us, we will ask that you reimburse us for any expenses we incur that are needed to present your claim. These include copies of requested medical records and the like. Please rest assured that our office does as much as is reasonably possible to keep this figure as low as it can - typically under $300.00 per case.
