How do I pay a qualified Redford Social Security lawyer? I don’t have any money!
Because the people who need a social security lawyer usually do not have a source of income, social security lawyers structure their fees to make their services affordable. Why? Social Security attorneys only get paid if you get paid. This fee structure is called a “contingency” fee. First off, a social security attorney is legally not allowed to charge more than 25% of the back pay/past due benefits awarded to you, up to a maximum of $6,000. Second, you are insured not to pay more than that because the government must approve of the attorney’s fee before you are required to pay the attorney for his services.

How the Social Security system works: SSDI vs. SSI
SSI (Social Security Income) and SSDI (Social Security disability Insurance) are two separate programs that pay claimants who are disabled. The disability must prevent you from working for a year or more or result in death. While both programs are federal disability programs, they are quite different from each other.
