Social security calculates your benefits based on the earnings averaged over your lifetime. Your earnings are adjusted for wage increases, and then applied to the 35 years you earned the most money using a complex formula. But if the government botched the job, you could stand to lose thousands in social security payments. It’s estimated that social security will cover about 40 percent of your living expenses when you retire. Don’t let the government cheat you out of your hard-earned money.

An experienced attorney will be able to help you appeal a decision and file the appropriate paperwork so that you get what you rightly deserve.

Did You Know?

Some People Who Get Social Security Benefits Have to Pay Income Taxes on Them

You pay taxes on your Social Security benefits if you have other substantial income in addition to your benefits (for example, wages, self-employment, interest, dividends and other taxable income that you have to report on your tax return). No one pays taxes on more than 85 % of his or her Social Security benefits and some pay on a smaller amount, based on IRS rules.
