Dear Drea,

When you say your attorney wants 10% of you loss wage check, is that a loss wage check from federal disability? If it is I would question that. The cap on attorney fees for a disability claim is currently $6000 and if you don't get it he gets nothing. When I filed it was $5300 and it went directly from the Social Security Office to him and taken off my loss wage check and documented as such on all my papers from social security.

Filing for disability is really a pain. It took me 2 tries, never had to go to court it was settled in lawyers office.

I hope this is a help.
