Excellent Representation

Kate provided me with top notch representation. Indeed, she is a top disability lawyer. I did a lot of research before choosing a lawyer, and determined that Kate and her firm are among the best in the business. She is very intelligent, a strategic thinker and a great communicator.

Outstanding!

Kate is an awesome attorney. My disability case continued on for over 3 years. During that time, Kate always kept me informed during each step in the process. She was professionally aggressive with opposing counsel, filing motions and advocating on my behalf. Her briefs addressed all their claims; ne...ver failing to address each issue that they presented. When I was discouraged or concerned, she would take the time to address my concerns and answer my questions. In the end, the judge found in my favor and ultimately a settlement was reached. Although filing a claim offers no guarantee of winning, My situation dictated that I try. I firmly believe that it was Kate's knowledge and expertise that led to the outcome and settlement we received. I have the utmost respect for her and her firm, Rosenfeld, Rafik and Sullivan.

Excellent representation...highly recommended!

Kate Sullivan recently represented me in a legal matter. I cannot speak highly enough of her for her professionalism and top notch representation. She always communicated with me to advise me on the status of my case and never failed to respond to any inquiry I may have had. I will certainly recom...mend her and her firm to my family or friends who may need representation in the future.

Kate and her team are a godsend.

A change in my health caused me to be unable to work any longer and I didn't know where to turn. I contacted the Massachusetts CFIDS/ME & FM Association for advice and as well as other assistance they gave me, they referred me to Ms. Sullivan for representation with SSDI and Long Term disability insu...rance claims and appeals. At our meeting Kate immediately put me at ease. She clearly explained what my options were and answered all my questions. She introduced me to to her assistant Cori and we agreed on fees. She started work on my case. It can be a long and drawn out process with various "bumps in the road" but Ms. Sullivan reassured me and kept me informed throughout the entire journey. All the while I was in constant email and phone contact with her extremely competent and capable assistant, Cora. I can't say enough good about the care and representation Ms. Sullivan provided me.

Superlative LTD Insurance Lawyer

Atty. Sullivan is as knowledgeable, thorough, caring, efficient and effective as an attorney can be. My entire experience so far with Ms. Sullivan and her colleagues at Rosenfeld, Rafik and Sullivan, P.C., has been a very positive one, and I feel very lucky to be among her clients. I would recommen...d her unequivocally.

  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
