I didn't know that it was ever "okay" for a lawyer to charge more. Do you happen to know if the SSA specifies how much more can be charged, if there is another cap ? Or have a specific link to the applicable details from the SSA ? I should have looked myself for Rrae, but my brain fog is winning the battle today.
I believe that there is still a max of 25% of benefits plus costs if appealed to Federal court. The cap of $6000 does not exist at the Federal court appeal level from what I have researched. I would post the link but the 2 tries I made of posting links has not worked for me. Remember, I am not computer savvy. The links show but do not work. Not sure what I am doing wrong so I did not try this time.
