Great attorney!

I can’t say enough about how good of a job he has done for me. He was very attentive, prompt, and professional. He guided me through the process of seeking a medical retirement from my federal job. He took time to explain everything to me very well. I have referred a couple of colleagues to him. I w...ould strongly suggest hiring him if you are in need of a medical retirement. The process is beyond confusing without an attorney. Robert is very good at his job!

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

Challenging case!!!! But we WON!!!

I will highly recommend Robert McGill. He took my extremely difficult case. After working with the federal government for over 14+ years I had a very difficult case. Won’t go into details about it, but I can just tell you I was convicted of a felony while working and still Mr. McGill was able to help... me prove and win my case. Extremely professional and knowledgeable of all things OPM attempts to do NOT to approve your case or make your life more difficult. Of course case was denied at beginning but later on was approve and didn’t even went in front of a judge.

Secured My Family’s Future!

Mr. McGill secured my family’s future with approval of my disability retirement case. His knowledge, professionalism, attention to detail, writing skills, and determination are beyond outstanding. After a 25+ year career in Federal service, I sustained a disability and couldn’t continue my career. Ov...er 3 years, Mr. McGill diligently gathered information and prepared an impeccable case. Sadly, we were disapproved twice. He continued with his unstoppable work ethic until my case was finally approved (at the MSPB). My family and I are forever thankful for Mr. McGill. If not for him, I shudder to think about where my family and I would be. Mr. McGill is, without a doubt, the best and only attorney you want working your case.

Disability retirement

Attorney Robert McGill helped me successfully navigate the complicated disability retirement process with OPM. Although results may vary, my retirement was approved within 6 months of our first meeting. I highly recommend Robert McGill to anyone who needs to retire from federal service due to med...ical issues. Without professional guidance, there are way too many ways in which an employee can falter in the disability process due to the overwhelming amount of paperwork that needs to be filed in a very specific manner. You can rest assured McGill knows what he’s doing and wil do most of “the heavy lifting” for you.
