HOW TO PAY A DISABILITY LAWYER





How to pay a disability lawyer who handles a social security disability case is fairly simple. For ssd cases that have been approved and in which a lawyer has been designated as the representative, the social security administration will actually take care of paying the attorney's fee. The fee payment will simply be a percentage of the backpayment that is owed to the claimant.

How much of the backpayment will go to an attorney? SSA will pay twenty-five percent of an approved claimant's backpayment to a disability lawyer who has provided representation.

However, when it comes to ssi disability claims, the social security administration will not pay a fee to a disability lawyer, but, instead, will leave it in the hands of a claimant to pay their attorney (update: the social security administration now performs withholding on SSI cases as well).
