Incredible Lawyer in your corner

I had the privilege of working with attorney Lavoie. She was amazing to work with and made it so simple I had to do almost nothing she did everything for me. Through this process I realized that attorney Lavoie is a well seasoned veteran of the law and left no stone unturned when it came to my disabi...lity case. She was very easy to work with to communicate and made me feel comfortable through the whole process. She took her time it was very thorough and got me my disability on the first try. Her down to earth personality made me feel so very comfortable and welcomed. I would highly recommend attorney Lavoie she has the experience and they know how to help you obtain what you need to attain. I would highly recommend her to anyone. Thank you attorney Lavoie for what you have done to help me.

Thank you for all that you do!!

Mariam and her team are the most wonderful, professional team of lawyers that I could have ever hoped to have fight for me through my disability case. They are thorough, responsive, supportive yet firm on making sure my voice is heard and issues were made important for judges and doctors who may not ...understand my situation. Put your trust in this team and they will not let you down. Thank you for all you have done and keep doing the amazing work you all do! Kerri B.

Mariam Lavoie is knowledgeable, compassionate, and patient; in working with us on a complicated disability case.

Mariam Lavoie has compassion, understanding, and took time to listen, then request and assemble needed records related to a complex disability application. In addition to thee face to face meetings; it took patience, time and phone calls to Soc Sec to get needed clarifications, and prepare and subm...it this case for Soc Sec Disability (SSD), and Supplemental Security Income (SSI). I highly recommend her.

Simply The Best!!

Let Me start by saying finding an Attorney is NOT Like it used to be and trying to find a Good Attorney can be a long arduous process especially when you are are suffering from illness or disibilty. I didnt know what to expect when I first met Mariam Lavoie at Lavoie Law but It changed My Life! I had... been with one of those TV attorneys who promise you soo much but never follow through, you never hear from them. They have people working your case that arent attorneys so they cant even answer your questions. I learned this all the hard way, and when I met Mariam Lavoie and in passing told her about my distress over the situation, she was compassionate and understanding. She didnt try to sell me on herself or her team, but offered to look into my case. It was so refreshing , Mariam and her team made me feel like family,but never sugar coated my case. She and her staff are personable, relatable and down to earth with common sense and impeccable work ethic. Mariam and Her team at Lavoie Law know the ends and outs of SSA,SSI,SSDI. They have the inside track on all the workings in and around the laws. I was so pleasantly surprised how Mariam and her team kept me in the loop Weekly with updates via email or calls. They made the whole experience easy and doable. They did back ground on Dr.s I was seeing and worked closely with them on my case. They kept my health and wealfare and privacy at the top of the list at all times. Im so happy to say that Mariam Lavoie ,Jane, Wyloski and the rest of the Team at Lavoie Law have been with me the whole way Even in the winners Circle And as of Late My Wife who also had her case with Lavoie Law has also Won her case Thanks to Mariam and the Lavoie Law Team!! Mariam and her Team understood our Plight our struggles and what our futures would be if we didnt have the help we needed and it would have been bleek, for my wife and I it was life or death! Mariam Lavoie and her team came through and are still standing with us as we shape our futures..
