A handle attachment assembly for a toilet seat is disclosed for manually raising or lowering a toilet seat without a user having to touch the toilet seat proper. The handle attachment includes an attachment plate securable to the underside of a toilet seat with an adhesive. The attachment plate further includes a rigid flange which grips the interior edge of the opening of the toilet seat. This flange serves as a guide for proper alignment of the seat and provides lifting support to the seat for reducing strain on the adhesive. The handle attachment assembly further includes a handle which is grasped by a user for raising or lowering the toilet seat. The handle is demountably attached to the attachment plate and extends outwardly therefrom. The handle is thus removable for cleaning or for replacement with handles of various aesthetic designs.
