Title: Authorization of Representative Fees (3508F) 
Abstract: We plan to revise our rules regarding payment of representative fees to allow representatives, in certain cases, to charge and receive a fee for their services from certain entities or government agencies without requiring our authorization. We also plan to eliminate the requirement that we authorize fees for legal guardians or court-appointed representatives who provide representational services in claims before us if a court has already authorized their fees
