Guest guest Posted May 14, 2006 Report Posted May 14, 2006 , Attorneys who specialize in SSDI cases do not *cost* anything. If you claim has to go for a Hearing (at which both you and your attorney are present), once the Administrative Law Judge rules in YOUR favor (meaning you will be awarded SSDI benefits), the SSA will pay your lawyer, no more than 25 % of your back due benefits. I understand the " run around " difficulties. Unfortunately this is a government agency you are up against, and no kidding, but filing for SSDI benefits CAN in itself be a *full-time job*. So, I still am suggesting you contact NOSCCR and meet with a lawyer, and hopefully you can do this before your June surgery, and then let your lawyer handle things - but do stay in touch with her/him. ~ Gretchen Quote
