Bonny G Rafel

Bonny Rafel has repeatedly earned the distinction of being a "Super Lawyer" by her peers. This means that many lawyers recognize her as one of the most ethical, professional, compassionate, and successful lawyers in ERISA disability law. It's a distinction that entails a vigorous screening and nomi...nation process that lets her peers and consumers know that she is revered as one of the best. Now that I know what a "Super Lawyer" is, I would never use a lawyer without this distinction for any other legal matters. If you are fortunate to become her client this means you are going to receive the most attentive, personalized, and winning results that you could hope for from an attorney! I have worked with Bonny since 2012. I was a former professional in the medical field and have rarely seen in any of the professionals with whom I interacted over a 24 year career the kind of individualized and genuine personal concern that she shows her clients. From my first meeting with her and her paralegal Eileen, Bonny listened attentively to my situation while documenting everything in her computer during the entire 2 hour intake process. In other words, from the very outset I could see the focus, the professionalism, and her apparent expertise in this area of law. She and her staff immediately respond to questions and concerns, if not in the same day then within 24 hours. This is first class service, and this is the personal care and concern that she gives all of her clients. She is an amazing lawyer and person! She has overseen several matters related to my disability and all her legal services have been en point, and I even know when she is in the background orchestrating matters for my benefit. She is "very protective" of her clients and only wants the best outcomes for them so she works tirelessly to assure that she gets that for you. She expects excellence from her team and any other professionals whom she may need to send you to support your case for a favorable outcome. You have no worries in her capable hands, but since lawsuits are inherently nerve wracking she is always able to put your concerns at ease. My outcomes have been favorable because of her hard work and dedication and that of her team. If you become her client and follow her directions you will be satisfied with the outcome, very, very satisfied. Bonny G. Rafel is a bright star in the legal universe. It would be so wonderful if professionals in every other discipline under the sun conducted themselves with her level of care and professionalism!

After my almost-30 year career ended in early 2010 due to disability, I began collecting disability benefits. My doctors all supported my disability as did numerous confirmed tests. Not too much later, however, my insurer abruptly cut me off, and I was in a dire financial situation and didn't know w...here to turn for help. My wife, three kids, and I were immediately at risk of losing my home. An acquaintance referred me to Bonny & I made an appointment. (The acquaintance had lost a disability case before Bonny took it - and won.) Bonny quickly put me at ease and I found her forthright, pleasant, and obviously very knowledgeable. We discussed my situation and I went home and did some research on her firm. After finding only favorable results, we agreed that she'd take my case. She kept me in the loop throughout the process, returned my calls timely, and patiently and clearly answered my questions. Her initial fee was very reasonable and I never had to pay anything else except for some miscellaneous paperwork, postage, and other relatively small expenses. Anyway, I'm happy to say that she recently negotiated a very good settlement & my life can now proceed with much less financial stress.
