3x better outcomes vs. doing it alone
Barry worked for 30 years as a law clerk. But when spinal stenosis made working impossible, even he couldn't navigate the disability system on his own. After two denials, we helped him get approved.
After two denials, and no explanation from the SSA, Samantha turned to Atticus for help with disability benefits. She’d spent years applying on her own, falling behind on rent and bills. She got approved quickly, and regained her self-sufficiency.
Jimmy, a former EMT and trainer, had to quit the job he loved after three heart surgeries and countless complications laid him low. While he focused on his health, Atticus got him the benefits he needed to recover.

How much does Atticus charge?
Atticus is always 100% free. We’ll answer your questions, evaluate whether you need additional legal help, and recommend a lawyer (if you want one) that’s the best fit for the case.
If you do end up hiring a firm to represent you, you’ll still pay nothing up front. Your lawyer will take a fixed amount of your compensation (15-33%) if you win. If they lose, then you pay nothing.
What if I can’t afford a lawyer?
We believe everyone should be able access the legal help they need. Any advice we give is always free, and none of the lawyers we work with charge anything up front. If you work with a lawyer we match you with, they’ll be paid a percentage of your final payout (usually 15-33% and often “capped” at a fixed amount).
That way you get top-tier legal help without ever seeing a bill.
What happens after I submit my claim online?
After you submit your information, one of our client advocates will further review the details of your claim. You can give us a call, or we will contact you via call or SMS. From there, we'll get you on the path to solving your legal issue, and find you a great lawyer (if you want one).
We’ll answer your questions, and share our advice. An Atticus client advocate will listen carefully and review your issues. We’ll explain your options so you can chart a course forward.
We’ll match you with the right lawyer (or other legal help). Our team will search far and wide to find the best lawyers for your specific situation.
We’ll monitor your case, and stay available if you need us. For the duration of your case, we’ll be here for you. We'll periodically reach out to see how things are going, and will get involved if needed. If you ever have questions or concerns during the case, we’re a quick text or phone call away.
What is Atticus and how does it work?
Atticus is a new kind of law firm, on a mission to reinvent how Americans seek and find legal help.
Today, it is extraordinarily difficult for people with serious legal needs to find and hire the right lawyer. They wonder: "Do I need a lawyer?" "What will I get if I hire one?" "How much will it cost?" And of course, "Which one should I choose?"
Atticus is a place that anyone can turn for rapid, expert help answering those questions — for free. We diagnose your needs, explain your options, and help you find and hire the right lawyer (or nonprofit) to move forward.
How does it work?
To get started, you’ll answer a quick, 3-minute quiz about your claim. Next, you’ll connect with one of our client advocates who will review the details of your claim. They’ll answer your questions and will explain how we’ll help you win benefits. From there, we’ll find you a vetted law firm who will get you the benefits you deserve.
Is Atticus a law firm?
Yes! Atticus is a law firm, and we are qualified to give legal advice. We can answer your most pressing questions, make clear recommendations, and search far and wide to find the right lawyer for you. It's not easy: being a licensed law firm subjects us to complex regulations and requires painstaking work. But it's worth it, because it means we can truly help our clients as they take on life's biggest challenges. Others can't.
Two important things to note: If we give you legal advice, it will be through a lawyer on our staff communicating with you directly. (Don't make important decisions about your case based solely on this or any other website.) And if we take you on as a client, it will be through a document you sign. No attorney-client relationship arises from using this site or calling us.
At the bottom of many websites, you'll find a small disclaimer: "We are not a law firm and are not qualified to give legal advice." If you see this, run the other way. These people can't help you: they're prohibited by law from giving meaningful advice, recommending specific lawyers, or even telling you whether you need a lawyer at all.
There’s no disclaimer here: Atticus is a law firm, and we are qualified to give legal advice. We can answer your most pressing questions, make clear recommendations, and search far and wide to find the right lawyer for you.
