Ms. Annie Pate

I enjoyed working with Mr. McGill, he worked on my case for Federal Retirement starting in April of 2018, He was very informative on what I needed to do to reach my ultimate goal( which was to get my retirement) and he also stayed in touch with me throughout the whole process. He gave me plenty of c...ontact information in order to reach him and returned all messages that I needed response to. Mr. McGill really put my mind at ease and made my process smooth and less stressful. I received my retirement approval by January 2019 and even to this day, Mr. McGill is still in contact with me ensuring that I continue to progress in my retirement. I couldn't have asked to have a better lawyer represent me in this process, Thank you for reading and God speed.

Great Federal Disability Attorney with great results !

Mr. Robert R. McGill took my OPM disability case when I realized that I could no longer physically perform my duties as a federal police officer and when I decided to apply for an OPM disability retirement. The process seemed so overwhelming and complicated that I did not want to risk making any tech...nical mistakes with the paperwork or anything that would unintentionally cost me a denial, having then to file appeals that would cost me a much longer and unpleasant wait and unneeded aggravation. I had enough dealing with my own health problems and preferred to have a professional attorney handle the bureaucratic mess that the federal government is. Mr. McGill was very knowledgeable, experienced, quick to respond to all my questions and gave me a great sense of confidence during a very difficult time for me. I was dealing with the reality that I could not longer do the work that I truly loved and enjoyed and that changes were coming to my life. Mr. McGill took me through the process, filed all my OPM paperwork, constantly communicated with OPM and kept me updated. His services include any possible required appeals in your case, all included in the retainer contract. Being a compassionate human being, he also worked a payment plan for me. I would highly recommend his representation to any federal worker seeking an OPM medical retirement. You will be extremely satisfied with how Mr. McGill runs his law firm, always on top of things and always keeping you in the loop ! Thank you, Mr. McGill for the great and professional work that you did for me !!!

Best FDR Attorney Around!

Attorney McGill is the best option out there to navigate the OPM nightmare. He's responsive to all inquiries and always did what he said he would do. I always felt prepared for every step in the process and Attorney McGill was always happy to answer any questions I had.

Federal Disability Retirement

I initially applied for Federal Disability Retirement on my own in August 2017. I was denied in June 2018. I hired Attorney McGill at the Reconsideration Stage. He is a true professional and informed my physician on exactly what was needed. He always answered any questions I had within 24 hrs. or... less via email or phone. Hiring Attorney McGill was one of the best decisions I have ever made. If you want your Federal Disability Retirement approved, don’t look any further than Attorney McGill. I received my approval letter November 21, 2018. Merry Christmas to me, thanks to Attorney McGill..

I highly recommend Mr. McGill. Professional and effective representation

If you are looking for solid representation in pursuit of disability retirement, I highly recommend Robert McGill. I thought I had a "slam dunk" case since I was let go because of my disability after 20+ years of service. I was denied at first review and sought Mr. McGill's services and was approv...ed at the reconsideration stage. My experience with Robert McGill has been positive throughout the entire process. He was quick to reply to all my messages and explained the process and expectations. He communicated with medical providers and OPM and got the job done. Even if you think you have a clear case for disability retirement, I urge you to contact Mr. McGill and save yourself time and worry.
