HIRE AGNES! SHE’S A PRO WiTH DISABILITY

Our own disability attorney recommended Agnes when my son’s disability claim got denied, as she is a specialist in appeals. It has been 2 years since she refiled the claim, got denied again ( which she advised us in advance would happen), then we got a meeting in front of an actual judge ( about an ...18 month waiting period) , where my son’s claim was finally approved. Agnes had walked us through this scenario from the beginning, so we knew exactly how long it would take. She is smart, hilariously funny, kind and compassionate, experienced and thorough. She hugged me as I cried in relief when my son’s claim was approved by the judge. The system is frustrating, heart breaking, overwhelming. As a normal person there was no way for me to navigate it. That’s why there is Agnes, With years of expertise, knowledge, and sophistication and able to function within the system with great outcome. We are deeply grateful to Agnes.

A real attorney who knows disability law thoroughly, and gave me my life back!

AGNES WLADYKA, ESQ., is a God-send and I am NOT exaggerating! Agnes explained the law and processes to me thoroughly. She has a calming voice; when we spoke all my anxieties subsided immediately, and I did not worry about who I had handling my future! I fought NJ for almost 8 years to receive my b...enefits. Where everyone failed, Agnes did not. When it came time for my hearing, her calming voice kept my emotions settled, and head clear to answer the judges' questions. Agnes knew my case better than I did, and I am the one living it. To accurately explain her: amazing, genuinely sincere, HONEST, hardworking, knowledgeable, and she did not steal 1/3 of my pay like most attorneys. Agnes was (still is) my answer to winning my case. She gave me my hope and future back when all other attorneys focused on their salary. The past two years working with her has been a dream come true. I recommend Agnes to truly sick people who desperately need their disability benefits to survive! Agnes is the last REAL attorney on the market. It is wise you contact her if you have already received an Unfavorable Decision from NJ Social Security Disability Administration. All hope is, NOT lost when Agnes is on your side! Thank you Agnes, I am still crying with happiness and relief thanks to you!

Chesman's Review of Agnes Wladyka

We have worked with Agnes on several issues relating to my 21 year old son's catastrophic stroke. She assisted us with social security, medicaid, medicare, Special Needs Trust, and rules relating to working while disabled. She is one of the most informative lawyers I have ever met, easy to understa...nd, and willing to go the extra mile to help others. I consider her to be an exceptional attorney and recommend her highly.
