exceptional service

I was extremely pleased with the service that Chris provided. He was well versed on ssd law and skillfully guided me through the process to gain a favorable approval. What I also liked is that he responded to questions I had personally and in a very prompt fashion. There was no paralegal or other st...aff involved , just Chris. Again, extremely happy with this service !!

Extremely Knowledgeable, Reliable & Compassionate

Chris Pashler was a great blessing to me. I initially reached out to him in an urgent circumstance and he followed through and completed the complex preparation and completion of the Social Security hearing process -- with a favorable outcome ! In addition to his genuine caring and hard work he has a... strong sense of fairness and understanding. In addition because he has a history of working with the Social Security Administration as a Judge -- he knows and is an absolute expert in this area of law. I am a very grateful cilent for sure.

Workers Compensation and Social Security Disability

There has not been a time when I was willing to hand out someone else business cards, in this case I will refer anytime I can. Had Mr. Pashler been my attorney years ago, I wouldnt have had less stress that I had with my previous law practice. Along with feeling very comfortable In the office, I ne...w I could send a text or email and the response was almost immediate. It was during My workers comp case that I asked Mr. Pashler if he would be willing to take my social security case as well. I was in a Dr office for treatment and he asked who I was being represented by. The Dr. asked if I would be willing to get him a stack of business card for other patients. I have the utmost respect for Mr. Pashler and Ms. Devereux. Professional and very courteous.

Knowledgeable, Courteous & Compassionate

From the first day we met with Chris my husband, myself and my brother and sister in law who accompanied us were completely impressed with his knowledge, kind demeanor, and professional attitude. Chris took the time to listen to us, and especially listened intently to my husband who suffers from a nu...mber of health issues, namely early onset dementia. Chris was always readily available to return phone calls, and responded to our emails, and always in a prompt fashion. He was diligent at getting the medical records we needed and then getting them quickly. Most importantly, we were all very impressed with Chris's expertise, and knowledge of social security. We had dealt with other attorney's unsuccessfully and we were always in the dark. Chris explained what the criteria was that was needed for Ben to get social security. It is evident, that Chris Pashler's skill, time, effort and sense of urgency is the reason that we received a favorable decision. We can't thank him enough.

Mr. Pashler Knows Social Security

He is a walking book of knowledge regarding the law and Social Security. I cannot say enough about his impressive understanding of the workings of this very complex system and his careful approach in guiding me through it. He was polite and considerate while maintaining a businesslike approach in han...dling my case. He is, in my opinion, dedicated to his work as your representative. The positive outcome in my case certainly gives me reason to say these things about Mr. Pashler however, despite the outcome I could see that he gave me 110% of his effort throughout the entire time he represented me.
