The court finds that this is a reasonable fee in light of the circumstances in this case. Plaintiff has been awarded attorney fees in the amount of $4,821.37 and $5,235.00 under the Equal Access to Justice Act (EAJA), 28 U.S.C. § 2412. When issuing the section 406(b) check for payment to Plaintiff's attorney, the agency is directed to subtract the amount paid under the EAJA and send Plaintiff's attorneys the balance, minus any applicable processing fees as allowed by statute.
