It is not clear why you need a lawyer. You indicate you are on Social Security but you have appealed the decision. If you are on Social Security, then why do you need a lawyer. You would need to provide more information about your current dispute. Most lawyers take Social Security cases on a percentage basis. This means if they win their fee is 25% of the benefits they win for you. However, if you are already on Social Security, it is unclear what you are trying to do and what you can win. This is probably why no lawyer will take your case.
