It must be real simple to get a disability check when you go to the post office the first of the month and the whole town is in the parking lot waiting to get there checks. Then some get jobs on the side to make some extra cash. Companies like to hire them because they know they cant sue them if they get hurt on the job because if the government knew the person was able to work they would lose there disability check and could go to prison. Last year the Social Security Administration paid a billion dollars to claimants lawyers out of its cash-strapped disability trust fund. The biggest chunk -- $70 million - went to Binder & Binder, the largest disability firm in the country. Lawyer Jenna Fliszar and Jessica White worked for Binder & Binder representing clients in front of disability judges from New Hampshire to West Virginia. Jenna Fliszar: I call it a legal factory because thats all it is. I mean, they have figured out the system and theyve made it into a huge national firm that makes millions of dollars a year on Social Security disability.
