My attorney I had was amazing! He talked to me about what to expect during my hearing. He was knowledge of my records. Kind & understanding. Very helpful.
Run, don't walk away, RUN! Just wasted 20 months with these folks. Poor job of preparing the initial request, then they filed bankruptcy shortly after we signed with them. No one told us until we saw it online! Could not understand why the initial person took 16 medical issues and only listed 1, then we had 3 Advocates in '15, none knew what the last people had done. Learned they were closing offices, laying off people. Now, they do not have their own attorneys or reps filling out requests in each area, they are contracting with local folks for services. You have the right to leave and you can call your US Senator's offices, your Congress representatives and they will help you. Binder and Binder must return your records, They will try to charge SS for their hours, if you document you conversations and your losses, due to their negligence, there is a chance you can get that completely eliminated. Go to your own local representative and let them advise you. Their Tampa office had no phone service for over a week and I never got callbacks from there after that. I looked online today, they do not have an office at that address on Martin Luther King Blvd online. Best of luck, do not add this burden to your worry and frustrations Keep in mind, the longer they can keep you waiting, the larger their commission, There is a max that SS will pay them, about $6,000, and it is to their advantage to stretch these out. Good luck!
My Binder & Binder attorney was knowledgeable and effective. The process seems endless, but that's to be expected. I feel they were essential in winning my case.
Worst company i ever worked with. fought for it for 7 years and failed . dident send me paperwork missed hearings and when it went federal i was droped and not notified till after it was too late. Same Day i was notified i asked for my paperwork and they said they send it 1 month later i call back and was told they shreded everything. Now i have to restart my case and find a new lawyer that will accept me with out paperwork showing they are not my lawyer anymore. Because of them me and my family are homeless .
So alone. I had to do and provide everthing. I never had legal counsel, for 7 years. Case workers changed every other call. Please look elsewhere or do it yourself. If you are already in it under appeal, let the court decide how much they ge if and when you win. They over billed for "Legal service" when in fact it was administrative. Do not feel pressured to pay. You don't have to. The court decides.
