Alecia Elston-Excellent Representation For Your Disability Case!

I highly recommend Alecia Elston for your disability case! She made the entire process of applying for disability benefits as painless as possible, and with her support and guidance, my case had a positive outcome on the first application! She also has an excellent support team in her office, that ...was always available to answer questions and provide help.

Review for Alecia Elston from Maeghen for Disability

I hired Alecia Elston to represent me in my Disability case. I was very overwhelmed with all of the paperwork, in addition to feeling ill on a daily basis. Alecia was not only, knowledgeable and efficient, but also, kind, personable,and patient with me every step of the way. She kindly answered ever...y question that I had, as there were many. When it came time for my hearing, Alecia was highly prepared as she presented my case. She put me at ease. Thanks to her, I have the help that I need now. I highly recommend Alecia Elston, she is a truly wonderful attorney with compassionate and grace.

Social security disability

In April I consulted with Alecia about my disability and walked away very encouraged by what she had to say. We had several conversations through email or by phone, the end of July Alecia called to tell me we had won. I would definitely recommend Segar and Sciortino. I also have a few friends who h...ave used this firm and have had nothing but great things to say as well.

Excellent service

My experience with Alicia Elston was everything you would hope for when trying to get SSDI. I was treated with respect,informed on the process,and was responded to when I reached out with questions or concerns.From start to finish,I received my first check about two months after my first meeting with... Alecia.Thank you Alecia and Marita(Alecia's assistant)!

Excellent Lawyer

I went to Ms. Elston for help with Social Security problems. She was friendly and attentive to what I discussed with her. With her advice I was able to refile and years became months because of that. I can not more highly recommend a lawyer! She knows the system and after everything is said and done,... thats what you want in a lawyer. She also kept me up to date and was very quick answering my questions. Splendid Lawyer and got results. In the end, thats why we get a lawyer. Her assistant was also a nice lady and helpful also. Email me if you want to hear this from me.
