Top notch

I had several lawyers refuse to represent me, basically due to the complexity of my case. I had many factors up against me going into my case. My age, my career prior to being disabled, etc. Attorney Fink was able to see beyond “the book cover” and recognize my case was one worth fighting for. Sh...e is everything you want when looking for representation. She keeps her practice solely focused on disability, and has a wealth of knowledge due to her many years in practice. She communicates well, and does a great job to explain the process. I would refer anyone I care about, to her!

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!

OUTSTANDING

Leah was very knowledgeable of the Social Security Disability system. She took the time to explain the process, how it works and always got back to me in a timely fashion. I wouldn't use anybody else and I will highly recommend Leah to anybody needing a Social Security Disability.

Professional and caring!

I HIGHLY recommend N. Leah Fink for your Social Security representation. I am not exaggerating when I say that she was by my side every single step of the process. She personally called and spoke to me anytime she had a question about my case. During my administrative law judge hearing she walked me ...through the process and what I could expect from the judge. She was happy, lighthearted, and very open and honest. She made me feel at ease the entire time. I am truly blessed to have had her as my attorney. I would be happy to answer anyone’s questions if they are thinking about hiring Leah for their representation. Thank you again Leah!! You rock!!!!!!

Very Informative

Leah was amazing, Because of her help and the information I received from her about SSI/SSD I was able to start my retirement and enjoy the next chapter of my life without financial worry.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
