Best of the Best

For anyone out there who is in need of an Attorney when filing OPM disability retirement, Mr. Robert McGill is the person you want to hire. Please believe me, you WILL NOT go wrong with Mr. McGill. Do not look any further, Mr. McGill is the one you want representing you. Mr. McGill focuses specifical...ly on OPM disability retirement; giving him an advantage over any other attorney out there in this area. Mr. McGill knows the in's and the outs of what is required and what is necessary to get you an approval. My disability case was for mental health, a condition that is not easily approved, requiring clear and concise articulation of the condition and the effects it has/had on my position. Without Mr. McGill on my side I would have been lost. My claim was a first-time-go and approved within months of submission. Mr. McGill walked me through every step of the claim process. He was easily accessible anytime I had questions, responding often times within the hour. I don’t know of any other Attorney who makes themselves accessible to their clients as Mr. McGill. Mr. McGill will work with you every single step of the way. He is a no-nonsense Attorney and he will do whatever it is necessary to get you an approval. I know I said it before, but please believe me when I say Mr. McGill is the person you want to hire for your OPM disability retirement case. A true professional dedicated to obtaining OPM disability retirement benefits for those who have worked so hard as civil servants. I am forever indebted to Mr. McGill.

Simply the Best!

I spent a lot of time searching for the right representation because applying for disability was a very hard thing to come to terms with. All of Attorney McGill's reviews are so accurate and I am thankful I found him during my search for help. When you read in his reviews that he gets right back to ...you, it is so true, sometimes within minutes. This guy, is the real deal! When you are hurting so bad and you are wondering how to even begin to start the process to apply for disability Attorney McGill is there. He puts your mind at ease, lets you know if he thinks your case is winnable and then backs it up with the law. Once my case hit OPM it took 40 days to be decided, on the initial try it was approved. I am beyond grateful I had Attorney McGill in my corner. The best advice I can give someone that is thinking about applying for disability is to reach out to Mr. McGill, you will not be sorry you did. A God send!

Client

Hands down the Best choice for a FERS Attorney. Mr. McGill is extremely knowledgeable in this subject, he takes the time to answer questions where other attorneys simply pass you on to a legal secretary. Mr. McGill will call you back ASAP usually within the same day or the next at the latest. He answ...ers all emails quickly. Also he is extremely compassionate about each case he handles. I would Highly recommend Mr. McGill to anyone looking for a FERS attorney.

Excellent Federal Medical Retirement Attorney

As a physician, I tend to have very high standards and expectations for those that I hire. Mr. McGill exceeded all of my expectations. He answered his own phone when I first inquired about his services, which I found refreshing. His fees were upfront and very reasonable. He communicated well througho...ut the entire process and was almost immediately available to answer questions or respond with updates. The process took 6 months but the outcome was fantastic. I would certainly hire Mr. McGill again in a heartbeat. He took away all the uncertainty and frustration from this process and would be a bargain at twice the price.

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!
