Mr. Lichtman Achieved Results

Mr. Lichtman and his staff were wonderful in representing me for my Social Security Disability claim. Jeff and his staff did a very thorough intake and application process. It is clear that Jeff is very knowledgable on disability law and procedure. Coming off of one of the worst years in my life, he ...was able to ring in 2016 with news that my claim was approved on the first round. If you want a fantastic attorney, look no further than Jeffrey Lichtman.

Not a nice person.

I called Jeffrey S. Lichtman for help for a friend of the family who was denied SSI and needed advice appealing the decision. Jeffrey was rude and dismissive and told me it wasn't worth the brain cells it would burn for him to think about the case. It's one thing to choose not to take on a client, ...but quite another to speak to a prospective client, much less a human being in need, in such a brusk, uncompassionate manner. It was a shock, particularly coming from someone who deals with disabled people. I can't speak to his expertise or competence, but he's certainly not a nice person.

I remember this telephone call like it was yesterday. Not every person understands that not every claim has merit, so after trying to be nice about explaining that a claim isn't a worthwhile case....

SSDI Case

Mr. Lichtman and his team were very helpful with my application for SSDI. From the initial phone interview through the sit down with Mr. Lichtman I could tell that I would be in good hands. Both Mr. Lichtman and his team were very professional and knowledgeable on SSDI and from start to finish I cou...ld not of asked for a better team. Suffice it to say due to how knowledgeable Mr. Lichtman was I knew no matter the outcome that my case was being handled by a very competent lawyer. The outcome was decided in my favor and I'll be sure to recommend him to anyone needing Social Security representation. If I ever need a lawyer in the future I can only hope to find some like Mr. Lichman to handle my case.

Very Effective

Jeffrey Lichtman and his staff are absolutely professional, knowledgeable, responsive and compassionate. I had just received a very severe cancer diagnosis with a limited life expectancy. Because of previous back and leg surgeries due to cancer, I could not work; I had no support, and I have two te...enage kids. I just didn’t know what to do because I had heard that applying for Social Security Disability was a stressful, time-consuming, labyrinth-like mess. I spoke to Jeff, and while he promised nothing, he delivered everything. While his manner was often gruff, he never gave me false hope or unreasonable expectations. Instead, he listened to me, gathered information, carefully prepared my case, and because of his expertise, he moved my case through the many necessary steps as quickly and effectively as possible. Not only did he succeed in getting me extremely needed SSD payments VERY quickly, he was able to help me get Auxiliary payments for my children. I don’t know where I would be without Jeff’s help, knowledge and determination. He is extraordinary.

Highly recommend

Jeffrey Lichtman is THE social security disability lawyer. His no nonsense approach is highly successful. His attention to detail allows him to remain focused. His knowledge and experience are beyond reproach. I would highly recommend him to anyone who requires an expert in navigating the social ...security disability process.
