| tips = All of the parties to the Settlement Agreement recommend that IAP claimants have a lawyer assist them through the process. Most IAP lawyers do not charge for their services unless their client is successful with their claim. The federal government contributes towards the payment of legal fees. All legal fees are capped and subject to review by the adjudicator to make sure they are fair and reasonable. If you choose not to be represented by a lawyer, it is a good idea to get a friend, counsellor or advocate to assist you with completing the IAP application. They cannot, however, "represent" you at a hearing.
