Outstanding Attorney Representation for FERS Disability Retirement

I hired Attorney Robert R. McGill on December 20, 2019, and I received my FERS disability retirement approval letter on May 6, 2020. I can attest that Attorney McGill knows his job extremely well. Attorney McGill walked me through the whole process and answered my calls and emails expeditiously. Hiri...ng an attorney of McGill’s caliber will lessen your stress levels during this hectic and worrying process. I absolutely recommend hiring Attorney McGill to represent you during the FERS Disability Retirement application and process.

The Absolute BEST Lawyer for the job!

April 30, 2020 I was struggling with my Disability Retirement the process was extremely stressful. I decided to do an internet search on Federal Disability Retirement and read many positive review about Mr. Robert R. McGill. I gave him a call, we talk for a while, I felt relief almost immediately.... Mr. McGill told me that the process will take about a year. Mr. McGill guided me through what he needed from me and he took it from there. If I had questions or concerns I would call or send and email and 99 3/4% of the time he responded the same day if he was not available at the time I reached out to him. It was less that seven months and I am now FREE. I highly recommend Robert R. McGill. Thank you Mr. McGill, Sherry

Fantastic legal work for a Civil Service medical retirement

Mr Robert McGill was my lawyer in a Civil Service OPM disability retirement application for reconsideration, and he not only did a fantastic job of preparing my reconsideration, but he knew the applicable laws very well, and prepared my application so that OPM approved my request. I only wish I had f...ound him sooner, so he had been able to work on my initial filing. Mr McGill is an outstanding lawyer, a a very caring and decent person.

Friendly, personable, and 100 Percent Successful

I have to begin by saying that as a result of working very closely with attorneys for over 20 years, when it came time that I actually needed one, I knew what I didn’t want. I looked for an attorney that specializes in disability retirement and within that, one that knew the OPM process governing fe...deral employees. Mr. Robert McGill kept rising to the top of the list, search after search. Upon initial contact with Robert, the first thing he did was to offer a long list of previous clients that I could contact for references. A quick note about that: a the end of my case, he asked if he could use me as a reference and put me on that list. He never asked what my review would be, what I would say, or asked me to say anything or to not say anything. I contacted a few, all of whom gave raving reviews, and even found one or two that had retired from the same agency I was with. His experience, reviews from previous clients, and his very reasonable fee convinced me to hire him. Once I signed the representation agreement, he got to work immediately. He really does work hard to make the client feel that he is waiting on you, instead of the other way around. In all those years I worked for, with, and had attorneys work for me, Robert is the only lawyer I have seen that did that. He is just amazing. His work on my case was 100% successful ending in OPM approving my disability retirement from the FAA. I recommend Robert McGill and believe that going with another attorney is doing a disservice to yourself. End of statement.

When you want the best results, hire the best lawyer!

I hired Robert McGill to handle my FERS Disability Retirement case after I was denied benefits by OPM (in hindsight, I wish I had hired him before I filed). Mine was a very complex case, and I knew I would need a lawyer with a experience and proven results. I did my homework, and found Robert McGill.... Because of his expertise and diligence, Attorney McGill was able to win my case prior to going to a MSPB hearing! Good lawyers are never cheap, but the decision to hire Robert McGill was BY FAR one of the MOST IMPORTANT financial decisions I've ever made in my life! To say that I highly recommend him is the understatement of the century. You will not regret it!
