SOCIAL SECURITY DISABILITY

Alicia Elston was such a great asset to me for my disability case. She guided me step by step on what to expect, was always available for phone calls and additional questions or any guidance that I needed. After our first meeting I had 100% confidence that she was on top of anything that needed to be... done! I am thankful that I went to Segar and Sciortino and met Alicia! I would highly recommend her!

Alecia Elston was a very professional attorney. She coached a counselled me on every aspect of my case. She is very much spot on for details not to mention showing empathy and compassion. I did not expect to feel like a family member, but she did. Also with grand results !!!!!!

Alecia is a personable, dedicated and hard-working attorney. My case was challenging and the first hearing was not in my favor. Alecia encouraged me to try again so we appealed the judge's ruling. I was very discouraged but she gave me hope. We appealed the first decision and this time, the judge...'s decision was in my favor! I guess the most important thing I can say about Alecia is that she believed in me. She kept moving forward with my case no matter what roadblocks we faced along the way. On a lighter side, Alecia is a cat lover and so am I! I couldn't help but think that was no coincidence! Alecia has many attributes. She's smart, efficient, and when she takes on a case she gives of herself 100%. I thank her from the bottom of my heart.

Wonderful!!!!

If I could have afforded a billboard, I’d have taken one out. Alecia upon meeting her put me at ease. The whole process of applying for SSDI on your own can be quite intimidating. I had tried and failed. I found her through advertisement on TV. She has been very helpful, quick in responding to my... questions ( via phone messages). She submitted the necessary paperwork for my case later thaw same day of my meeting her. I highly recommend her. Shes’s professional, kind, and understanding. Maureen Steinbacher
