Your Disability Attorney questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Thervo.

How much does a social security disability attorney charge?

Most social security disability attorneys charge 25% of the past-due benefits awarded. This typically is contingent upon whether you win the case. Most disability firms have a maximum fee, which is between $6,000 to $7,000. Keep in mind that attorneys who only work on contingency tend to reject cases that are not likely to win any benefits.

Do I need an attorney for social security disability?

While you do not need an attorney to file for social security disability, it is recommended. A disability attorney can help you file you claim correctly, which means it will be less likely to be denied. An attorney can also help you by acting as your representative during any hearings or court appointments. Having a knowledgeable disability attorney on your side can also speed up the claim process significantly.

Do I qualify for social security disability?

Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) gives monetary aid to people who are not physically or mentally able to work. Most disability recipients have a condition that is terminal or expected to last for one or more years. To qualify, you must have one or more qualifying ailments, such as:

  • Multiple sclerosis
  • Cerebral palsy
  • Blindness or hearing loss
  • Back injuries
  • Broken bones or joints
  • Immune system challenges
  • Respiratory illnesses
  • Anxiety, PTSD, depression, or schizophrenia
  • Traumatic brain injury or concussion
  • Certain types of cancer
  • Loss of fine motor control

What do I do if my claim is denied?

If your claim is denied, you can petition the appeals council to reconsider within 60 days after you receive their initial ruling. First, you must make sure you understand the reason they denied your claim and seek to rectify it if you can. Some reasons, like not having the proper documentation, are easy to fix. Other obstacles may be harder, like not having enough recent work credits.

Are attorney fees for social security disability tax deductible?

Attorney fees for social security disability earnings are tax deductible to a certain extent. If the lump sum awarded is large enough to be taxable, then part of the attorney fees can be deducted. For example, if 30% of your SSDI money is taxable, then you could deduct 30% of the attorney fees you paid that year.

You should receive an SSA-1099 every year you receive benefits. Make sure to consult with a tax professional if you have any concerns.

How do I hire a social security disability attorney?

Start by searching our list of disability attorneys, then:

  • Compare three or more free estimates.
  • Browse reviews and previous cases on Thervo and Google.
  • Choose a licensed and experienced law firm.
  • Choose an attorney you feel comfortable around and who seems interested in helping you.
  • Verify their professional credentials.
  • Get a written estimate before casework begins.
  • Follow a payment schedule instead of making payments up front.

After asking questions and verifying credentials, hire the best attorney in your area.

What questions should I ask a social security disability attorney?

When looking for an attorney near you, consider asking the following questions:

  • How long have you been with this firm?
  • Have you passed the bar?
  • Does your caseload allow you to take my case?
  • How many SSDI cases have you won?
  • How likely is it for my claim to succeed?
  • Do you charge hourly, or are you paid on a contingency?
  • Will you give me a written estimate for my case?

Reviews for Columbus social security disability lawyers (SSI)

Recent success stories from people in the Columbus area.
Andrew F.
Wesp Barwell is a tremendously responsive firm. They took time to understand the issues I was having and gave me great peace of mind. They explained that the process would take some time, and there would be large gaps between when things happened, but they kept me in the loop throughout the process. At no time did I ever feel forgotten, or like a number. They took a load off my mind and let me get on with my life, rather than dealing with insurance companies. I'd recommend them to anyone who has any legal problem. They are upfront, honest and a pleasure to work with.
