Finances were tough enough even when you had regular paychecks. Now that serious health issues keep you from working, money is beyond tight.
Food and transportation are suddenly a struggle. Your medical bills make it worse.
But you worked hard and paid into the Social Security system. So when you can’t work, you’ve earned access to the financial safety net of disability benefits. The problem is that benefits are notoriously difficult to win—especially when you have to go at it alone.
When you’re low on money, you probably think there’s no way you could afford a disability attorney. But here’s good news: You can get an attorney without paying anything up front.
Don’t worry about costly hourly rates and retainers. Thanks to Social Security rules, you won’t pay out of pocket for your attorney’s services. You only pay a fee when you win benefits.
The disability attorneys at Lachman & Gorton have helped thousands of hardworking people in Binghamton, Elmira, Endicott, Oneonta, Rochester and across New York—without putting a strain on their finances.
You can’t imagine adding another expense to your budget. Thankfully, the Social Security Administration has special regulations on attorney fees to help people like you secure the representation you need.
Disability attorneys work on a “contingency fee” basis, meaning they don’t get paid until you get paid. Here’s how it works:
And remember, they can’t charge a penny until you win.
On top of that, the disability lawyers at the Lachman & Gorton Law Office won’t charge anything at all for an initial evaluation of your situation.
