Nothing short of excellent
Sean and his team are outstanding from beginning to end. Constant updates, positive secure feeling and 2nd to none customer service. Jolaun, Mr. Farrell, Michelle are all amazing to work with. Highly recommend this law firm for your NYS Retirement/disability retirement and Social security /SSDI needs. Thank you so much.

Outstanding Workers Comp Lawyer
I was referred to Mr. Riordan in reference to my Workers Comp case after my injury on the job. He took care of everything. Kept me up to date on the case, pushed all of the paperwork through, and made phone calls on my behalf. He is truly a top notch attorney who I would highly recommend.

Finally
state pension was denied at first. he was always honest with me. sean appealed my case. we went to trial. he was well prepared and organized. he proved the one dr., who denied me was wrong vs the 6 or 7 doctors who said I couldn't go back to work. the judge decided in my favor and sean informed as soon as the decision was in. my family is forever grateful and I would recommend him highly!
