The law firms sending non-attorneys are not advertising that they are sending non-attorneys to Social Security hearings with you the claimant. In a previous Blog we challenged attorneys and non-attorneys alike to show us any advertising listing them as “non-attorneys”. We are still waiting for any response.
It is important to hire an actual attorney. Disability Experts of Florida, Quikaid, and Allsup are not attorneys. Binder & Binder although attorneys in New York send non-attorney clerks to hearings. Avoid these names and others where you don’t meet or can not talk to an actual attorney.
We recommend, to ask to see your representatives Florida Bar card before the Hearing and find that person on the www.FloridaBar.org website to see his or her history with the Florida Bar.
If your Social Security representative is not an attorney you should immediately ask the Judge for an attorney. This is your right.
Don’t be hurt by a law firm sending a non-attorney to your most important day of your claim which will predict the outcome of winning or losing precious benefits.
The Social Security Administration has a list of actual attorneys who can represent you and/or you can call us at 813-657-9175
