Social Security Help

I retained Ms. Fink after having my SS claim denied two times. Ms. Fink took over my case and thanks to her knowledge and professionalism I was awarded full benefits. From the moment I spoke with her for the first time and until the trial she made me feel that she cared. I think that is the main reas...on I would recommend her services to anybody that needs legal assistance, professional and actually cares about her client. Ms. Fink won my case for me and was a pleasure to deal with as she did it. I cant thank her enough.

Awesome attorney!

Leah represented my husband for his SSD. She walked us through the whole process and tried to keep us calm. Leah assured we had every iota of evidence. He was well prepared for his hearing. She called immediately afterward with her thoughts. She kept us updated, as she could see more of the process t...han we could. She called so excited with the positive results! Thanks!

Leah is the most amazing lawyer ever. Shes also so nice to talk to and even answers her phone, responds to you, is in contact but most of all, she is compassionate. She told me, for every negative thought, replace it with 3 positive thoughts. Leah, I dont know how to ever thank you enough for everyth...ing. She is AMAZING. and she knows what shes doing. I once worked in the field of law and I've been around my fair share of lawyers...not one of them could ever compare or live up to what leah stands for and how she treats her clients. And shes super funny. I just loved talking to her. She genuinely cares and she will fight for you. Thank you again leah. Thank you!

Caring great lawyer

Attorney Fink and her staff are very helpful caring people. She was able to have my case reviewed early on so I did not have to wait years for a hearing. Attorney Fink won my case quickly and I did not even have to go to a hearing. Her staff got all my medical records and she presented a written ...request to the Social Security Administration for my claim. I couldn't believe it when she called me to tell me I won. They also followed up to make sure that Social Security paid me on time and in the right amount. You can tell that she cares about her clients not just the money. Her secretary , Kim, is the best, always helpful and knows how to get Social Security moving. Really Great People!!!

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
