Social Security Lawyer Los Angeles

Why Should I Hire The Law Offices Of Kenton Koszdin?

Many people ask the question, why should I hire you when I can apply on my own?

Why should I pay an attorney to handle my case when I can save money by doing it myself?

The short answer to both of these questions is that the amount of the attorney fee is trivial compared to the potential benefits you can receive from winning your Social Security Disability/SSI case.

The attorney fee is 25% of the past due benefits up to a maximum of $ 5,300.  What this means is the most that will be withheld as an attorney fee is $ 5,300 from benefits owed to you from the date you are found to have been disabled to the time your payments start.

All benefits you receive after you are approved are yours with no attorney fee on future benefits.

Many people are confused about the fees.  Some people think that the fee is both $ 5,300 and 25% of back benefits.  It is the lesser of 25% of the back pay or $ 5,300.  For example, if you are owed back benefits of $ 10,000, the attorney fee is only $ 2,500.

According to Social Security, the average claim is worth approximately $ 250,000 over the duration that benefits are provided.  The attorney fee that we charge is a bargain considering the potential benefits you can receive.

Social Security Disability can be a complex and frustrating process.  You should hire my office to prepare your application to maximize your chances of getting accepted.

If you are not accepted the first time, we will work to get your claim accepted before the hearing.

If your case does go to a hearing before a Social Security Administrative Law Judge, you will have the benefit of our experience in winning many social security cases before the Office of Disability Adjudication Review.

When you hire our office, we work with you as a team to get the evidence needed to win your Social Security Disability case.

The Commissioner for Social Security has proposed regulations which will likely go into effect in February 2008 which will make it more difficult to handle your own case.

About SSI/SSDI

The Social Security Administration provides two benefit programs for people unable to work due to physical or mental impairment. These programs are Social Security Disability (SSDI) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI).

Cash Benefits

Social Security Disability provides two primary benefits: a monthly check. The amount of the monthly check is determined by a formula which takes into account the amount paid into Social Security and the length of time of employment.
