Review OLIVIA BORT

Please allow me to share my experiences working with my Attorney Olivia Bort. My case was complex with many layersto work out. Olivia helped me understand each step of the process and timelines. She possess many attributes many attorneys don't have. She is kind, patient and empathetic during thes...e difficult times. She always returns a call or email in a timely manner. You could never ask for a better attorney and her support staff.

Excellent Attorney

I could not recommend Olivia Bort enough. Mrs. Bort is an outstanding attorney. Mrs. Bort’s accomplishment with my slip and fall case were unbelievable. Mrs. Bort was able to complete task with my case I never thought possible. I am so grateful to her for her diligence and hard work. I am so luck...y to have been referred to Mrs. Bort. I personally do not feel any other Attorney would put the effort and care into my case like she did. I would highly recommend Olivia Bort for your needs. You certainly will not go wrong. Joe V

Excellent Lawyer and Wonderful Person

Olivia is first of a wonderful, sincere, hard working, and honest person with integrity. She guided me through the process and made it much easier to deal with. She is an outstanding lawyer who is detailed in her work, organized, and foremost gets the job complete. I have worked with a several lawyer...s before and she is hands down the best. She provides realistic "non sugar coated" details about your case. Honestly, she was on my side and worked above and beyond during my case. I couldn't have asked for someone better to represent me. I would recommend her to anyone needing this type of representation.

Has My Vote For Lawyer Of The Year..

After independantly applying for and being denied for social security disability, I consulted with the attorney and hired her for representation during the Appeal process. She was very professional, well educated about the requirements to proceed forward and more then prepared when time came to pres...ent the case. She had no problems communicating throughout the entire process (ex. Consultation, Footwork, Obtaining Records, Follow Up Appointments, Appeal Hearing, Follow Determination..). She went above and beyond. I couldn't have asked for better Legal Representation. The Appeal was determined to be found in my favor.

The perfect storm... In *your* corner

I tried a well-advertised SSD "TV Law Firm" and they signed me as a client and filed an appeal for me,  but didn't have a lawyer even GLANCE at my file until we waited two years and ODAR gave us a hearing date with the Judge.  I got a phone call from someone at "my TV law firm" that I won't name  (I ...hear the big ones are all about the same) and he said that a "senior attorney at their firm has reviewed my case and has decided not to take it", and asked me if there was "anything else that I needed help with".  What an empty offer.   Anyway, the TV guys left me in the cold just two months before my hearing.  I decided I had to go local in the Harrisburg area.  I tried "The eights", I tried "The sevens" and others.  They had me leave a copy of my file with reception and was lucky to even get a call or letter of refusal.  And THEN I called Shollenberger, Januzzi and Wolfe and spoke to Lawyer Olivia Bort, who asked me several questions about my case and had me come in right away with my paperwork.   I didn't know it was possible but Miss Bort helped me turn my shoebox full of paperwork into the slam dunk case that other firms expect to fall into their laps.  Olivia was very nice and had a demeanor that put me at ease, and she was incredible in court, winning the case with one critical question and a softly spoken "I have no further questions".  We knew we won as we left the building and complimented each other for our performances at the hearing.
