Non-Disability Social Security Appeals -- Overpayments


    The vast majority of the work that this law firm does is on Social Security disability claims but that's not all we do. We're Social Security and we help with all kinds of Social Security appeals.

    The most common type of non-disability case we work on is overpayments. The agency sends you notice that you've been overpaid by $30,000. They tell you that they'll start withholding money from your monthly check so they can get their money back. You think you haven't been overpaid or that the amount should be less or that you shouldn't have to repay it because it wasn't your fault. Yes, we help with that.

    The problem is the attorney fee. Usually we get a portion of your back Social Security disability benefits as our fee but there aren't any back benefits in overpayment cases. Getting you out from under a $30,000 debt can be a big deal for you so it may be worth hiring an attorney but we'll have to charge you upfront and that's a deal breaker for many people. We're sorry about that but we have to make a living.
