More Than Your Attorney, Your Advocate

If you take the time to peruse the reviews for Robert McGill, you will see lots of 5-star reviews and many accolades. Based upon my experience, the stars and praise are well earned! Mr. McGill is an exceptional attorney, expert in Federal disability matters, and results-oriented. For me, the result i...s "approved" for FERS disability retirement in less than 6 months. I was referred to Mr. McGill from another disability expert; the other expert was candid about the complexity of my case, and that he was not well practiced with my unique situation. I took it as high praise from one expert referring me to another. I am so grateful for that referral because Mr. McGill got the job done with the initial submission. He has exceptional knowledge of the subject area, the laws, and a iron-clad process. There is, honestly, work you will have to do in order for Mr. McGill to complete the package, but he will inform you and guide you through the process; I never felt overwhelmed with him engaged. Many other reviewers talk about his services in detail, which you can read. I can additionally add that Mr. McGill can work with you outside the National Capitol Region. I live in Florida, and the long distance between us made no difference. His process and methods are very adaptable to long distance client relationships. In conclusion, I believe he is uniquely qualified and experienced in Federal disability retirements, He virtually walks alongside you through the whole process. He is more than your attorney; he is your devoted advocate. For those of you considering his flat fee--he is totally worth it!

FERS Disability Retirement

I hired Mr. McGill to represent my deaf brother. We did not use Mr. Mcgill for the initial filing and I wish we had! My brother was initially disapproved for FERS disability. After researching and phone interviews with four law firms, I chose Mr. McGill for two reasons. The reviews and the c...ost of his services. Mr. McGill appealed his case, it was denied. He took it a step further and filed a Merit Systems Protection Board appeal. He provided all the necessary documentation, worked diligently during the appeal and his case was approved before going to the formal appeal. I firmly believe had it not been for Mr. McGill acting as his agent, he would have been disapproved at the MSPB level. Hire Mr. McGill, he knows the laws and the wording OPM requires for approval. Mr. McGill is not like most lawyers, once they have your money, communication comes to a standstill. Mr. McGill responded to every phone call or email I sent on the same day, kept us informed at every step of the process, great customer service.

Mr. Robert McGill (BEST DISABILITY ATTORNEY)

While working for the federal government my disabilities had me down on my knees, both mentally and physically with no light in sight for a future I had the most passion for in my entire life. While trying to hold on, day by day and month by month and not getting any help from my employer because the...y did not care for me or it's employees, only their friends, I had no other option but to look for external resources for help. When matters got so unbearable while in the worst moments of my life, I reached out to Mr. Robert McGill who specializes in government disability retirement who quickly and professionally looked at my disability case and contacted me back the following week and agreed to work with me. From this time forward, Mr. McGill emailed me and mailed me some simple documents to fill out which I returned to him I believe that same week. While going through the process, not much work was requested of me to do. All I needed to do was keep attending my appointments with my doctors and sending Mr. McGill the doctors reports. Mr. McGill also keeps in touch with the doctors by phone, email and fax to ensure consistency as the process kept moving forward. Mr. McGill also handled all communication and tasks with my employer so I did not have to. From my first time I spoke with Attorney Robert McGill, until the last time, he was always very professional, very caring and very understanding. As far as my understanding, he was always up early every day around 6am and stayed working until around 8pm. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU HIRE MR. ROBERT MCGILL TO HANDLE YOUR CASE. HE WILL NOT STOP UNTIL YOUR CASE IS APPROVED. If you want to speak with me about the process, I will gladly do so. THANK YOU ATTORNEY ROBERT MCGILL!!!

If you want the best, work with Robert R. McGill - FERS Disability Lawyer

Mr. McGill worked my complicated FERS disability case in less than a year. This was one of the most stressful and ever-changing periods in my personal and professional life. Robert worked tirelessly with me, my doctors and my agency points of contact (e.g. supervisors) to build my case. Robert's no-...nonsense approach and plain speak, along with his unparalleled expertise and his logic, made the process seem easier than I expected, though I know that Robert moved mountains to get my packages together. Robert is genuine and forthright. Robert keeps clients apprised throughout the process and sets proper expectations. If you are suffering from a disability or many disabilities that impact your performance in a Federal position and which make you unqualified and unable to perform, Robert is the person you need to hire. His fees are extremely reasonable. Robert goes out of his way to be affordable to all clients. He charges a "fair price" based on your federal salary up to a maximum amount. For timeliness, quality, and value, I highly recommend working with Robert McGill. I am very thankful for Robert's support. Should the need arise, I will definitely be returning to Robert for legal services. Brendon J Johnson Former/Retired Senior Procurement Executive - U.S. Small Business Administration

Great Lawyer!

After being disappointed by more than one lawyer, I can’t emphasize enough how hard it is to find a good lawyer. Mr McGill handled my disability retirement case and achieved the outcome I was looking for. His responsiveness, determination and hard work was ideal to resolve the matter quickly. I h...ighly recommend Mr. McGill to anyone in need of a sound lawyer.
