also known as OPM Disability Retirement Lawyer, OPM Disability Retirement Lawyer
I am an OPM Disability Retirement Lawyer and have been practicing Federal Disability Retirement Law for over 25+ years.
Federal Disability Retirement, under FERS or CSRS, is a “paper presentation” to the U.S. Officer of Personnel Management. If it is denied twice — both at the Initial Stage of the process as well as at the Second, Reconsideration Stage — then an appeal can be filed with the U.S. Merit Systems Protection Board. To be successful in geting disability retirement benefits at any of the 3 stages, it is important to consult with an OPM Federal Disability Retirement Lawyer to optimize your chances of success.
As an OPM Disability Retirement Lawyer, I believe that my educational background and experience makes me uniquely qualified in this field, and that is why I enjoy a high rate of success in getting my clients approved — at all three stages of the process.
I charge a “flat fee” — a 1-time fee not based upon an hourly rate. I decided years ago that I was not going to “nickle-and-dime” my clients, and that my clients were going to know up front what I charge.
I earned a B.A. in Philosophy from the Catholic University of America and graduated at the top of my class, summa cum laude. I then went on to do graduate work at the University of Virginia, and completed all course work for a Masters in Philosophy. Thereafter, I went to Law School and graduated from the Columbus School of Law, earning my Juris Doctor Degree.
My background and training in logic, analytical thought, writing technical philosophical treatises, and earning further training in the Law has prepared me to practice Administrative Law, where the majority of legal argumentation is through paper submissions and transactions. Persuasive argumentation, logical delineation and legal analysis are the tools for a successful outcome in representing Federal and Postal workers to obtain their Federal Disability Retirement benefits.
It is a passion of mine, and my clients will attest to the thoroughness of my work.

Preeminent Federal Disability Attorney
Very, very thorough attorney, no stone left unturned. Extremely knowledgeable and accurate in assessments. Took my disability retirement case beginning to end successfully and answered my questions along the way. Mr McGill was always responsive and helpful. I would hire him again without reservation ...

Mr. McGill is a no nonsense Attorney who seems to know the law better than anyone within the Government. Mr. McGill was always correct in forecasting the Governments next move and requests. Without him, I would have given up.

Robert is the BEST Attorney I've ever hired!
Mr. Robert R. McGill immediately contacted me upon request for consultation. He is a “Bottom Line Up Front” (BLUF) professional Attorney that gets right to the heart of the matter. Robert was extremely responsive, knowledgeable from start to finish, and comprehensively explained the obscure and convo...

SMARTEST decision you'll ever make!
I can honestly say that hiring Robert Mcgill to handle my FERS disability retirement was the smartest move I have ever made in my life. I did as much research as possible beforehand, but still, it was really daunting at first and a leap of faith to hire someone that you've never met in person, but R...

The best in federal employee disability law
It took me a while to get all the required medical documents together, but I got approved in the very first try. My own family doctor was hesitant about giving me disability for my back injury. He believed that I should get a disectomy (herniated disc surgery) so I could get back to work. My psych...
