Perseverance/confidence

I am so fortunate to have had Alecia Elston representing me in my disability case. She had confidence right from the start and she delivered like a pro.

Very experienced lawyer!

I consulted with Alecia after my Uncle recommended her firm for my disability case. I was hesitant and unsure of everything until we got into the courtroom and then Alecia showed her skill and blew me away. I am absolutely convinced I would not have had a favorable outcome if Alecia hadn’t been as ex...perienced as she was. I would not have been able to navigate this alone. She knew exactly what to say and what questions to ask and was clearly very prepared. All I can say to anyone looking to hire her is trust the process! Extremely experienced and obviously I’m super happy with my favorable outcome!

Excellent!

Ms. Elston recently represented a family member regarding a Social Security matter. Ms. Elston was a consummate professional. She was patient and explained everything to us as the case progressed. We were very happy with the outcome and would highly recommend her and the team at Segar & Sciortino.... Well done! Peter and Mary C.

Personal and Professional

Alecia was absolutely knowledgeable in every step of the Social Security Disability claim process, from application to handling the judicial hearing process, she was the person who had all her details and data ready. She is very personable in taking and returning my calls on a very timely basis and I... felt that she was invaluable in getting my case approved. I couldn't be more happy and satisfied with her performance. If anyone should for ask for an attorney who handles Social Security & Disability, Alecia is who I will recommend.
