He is a Disability Retirement Expert

Mr. Robert McGill is an amazing lawyer and did everything he promised me he would to make sure my disability retirement would get approved. He began by explaining the process to me and making sure I was aware of the length of time it would take on the Federal Governments end to process my disability... retirement, which ended up being 13 months. Mr. McGill was a there for me the whole time, always answering my emails or phone calls very quickly. He is exceptional at his job and knows the ends and outs of disability retirement. You can trust him, I sure do and so glad I found him when I did. He made all the difference in the world to my case. I can not thank him enough for everything he did for me.

Best Attorney Money Can Buy

Even if you are simply considering the idea of a Federal disability retirement, you need to at least reach out and give Mr. McGill a call ASAP. It costs you nothing to get his initial thoughts on your specific situation. Don't do what I did and waist time looking into other options. He is hands down ...the subject matter expert in this field with the history and track record to prove it. Whatever you do, I highly recommend that you seek professional assistance when pursuing this path. Getting your case package built, submitted and approved is unbelievably challenging. Fortunately for me, I hired Mr. McGill at the onset. During our initial consultation, he evaluated my situation and gave me his honest feedback regarding my odds of winning my case. After hearing his analysis, I decided to hire him and it was the best decision I could have made. Mr McGill won my case and I can easily say that in hindsight, there is definitely no way I could have done this on my own successfully!

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 !!!

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..

Fantastic

I hired Mr. McGill to handle my reconsideration after an initial denial for Federal Employees disability. I found him to be positive in his attitude and tenacious in his actions. My doctor's office staff was ill equipped to write a letter that was effective in describing my condition. Mr. McGill was ...able to guide them in a manner I was unable to do. He put my reconsideration application together in a way that covered all the legal aspects required for approval. In addition, Mr. McGill was extremely responsive to my questions and concerns.
