How is the attorney compensated in a Social Security disability case?
Return to FAQsTranscript:
The attorney is compensated in a Social Security disability claim by receiving a percentage of the payment of the back money benefits secured. So, for instance, if you ultimately prevail in your social security hearing, and you have for instance, $25,000 of back money benefits, the attorney would receive a percentage of the back money benefits, and you would then go ahead and receive the full amount of benefits from that point forward.
