BECOMING A DISABILITY ADVOCATE-NEXT LIVE SESSION January 10 – February 21, 2024

The Disability Teacher teaches non-attorneys the ends and outs of Social Security Disability Law. The Social Security Act allows non-attorney representatives to represent a claimant at all stages of a case from initial application to hearing before an Administrative Law Judge. Non-attorneys earn fees from the back pay a claimant may receive if the representative wins approval or a favorable decision for the client. Non-attorney representatives are entitled to 25% of the claimant’s back pay benefits not to exceed $7,200.00 which is the same fee amount for attorneys who practice Social Security Disability Law.
