Regrets

I hired him, after being denied benefits. he didn't seem interested in the case, but said we may win. Day of the hearing, I met with someone else, to represent me. I was told Silberman was ill. His replacement was ill-prepared, AND I LOST THE CASE. He didn't want to appeal. Said his wife used to work... at Soc.Sec and advised him not to. WTF? No, I don't recommend him

Fabulous! Highly recommend!

I met Rob while waiting for my disability hearing. Two other lawyers had refused to take my case as it was "unwinnable". Rob graciously took my case. My hearing was continued and four months later he represented me at my final hearing. In only 4 weeks I received a fully favorable decision! I would re...commend him to anyone looking for a disability lawyer. Everyone here is happy, even the dog!

Very disappointed

I was given a referral by a friend. I was happy when we talked and met. He left the Management of my case to his assistant who was rude and sent me one email and made one phone call to find out my disability claim. I had to submit all my own paperwork and worked with social security myself. When I se...nt questions my emails went unanswered. I was told not to email or call Mr. Silberman for questions. That wAsnt his job. I won my case with no help from them. I learned of my disabled claim outcome before they knew. They asked me to send them all the approval information. (They are the lawyers. Not me) They did one phone call and took 25% of my back pay. I hope they feel good. I'm a single mom of five kids. That several thousand dollar phone call (that I already knew the answer from the case manager) could have paid off some debt and bought clothes for my kids. I hope they can sleep peacefully at night with what they did to me. I don't recommend anyone from this firm. Very rude and to me

An Excellent Attorney

Mr. Silberman was extremely helpful in negotiating a settlement for me. He kept me in the loop throughout and worked out an agreement that was beneficial to everyone.

Tough Times

IT saddens me to say this, because Mr. Silberman did work hard and was successful obtaining my social security to support a Breast Cancer Diagnosis. A few years later, I was told I could return to work and still collect SS disability not to exceed a certain time frame. I did receive a SS overpaymen...t and consulted Mr. Silberman who advised me to complete the proper paperwork and fax this to his office. I did this, after confirming office receipt, I wasn't worried thinking he would take care of it. It was never taken care of. Needless to say, it has now been reported to the Credit Bureau and I will not be able to send my Straight A Honor son off to college.

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.
