PAINLESS!

Phenomenal outcome! I was approved for a medical retirement from the Dept of Veteran Affairs thanks to Mr. McGill's counsel. He was professional, expedient, competent and consistently followed up with me. I appreciate him more than I can express. Look no further, he's your guy.

Robert McGill is hands-down the best in his field! He is a "known quantity" in the DC courts and an expert in disability retirement law. I did the research before hiring Robert, and I found that his competence, track record, attorney-client relationship was top-shelf. Further, I called 3 of his re...ferences, and they all confirmed my findings. Robert led (and walked beside) me through the entire process which ultimately resulted in a win on the first try. Robert was always available by personal cell or email, and always responded either by COB or the next day. Being an over-thinker, I bombarded him with a million questions, and he always stayed patient with me, answered completely, and calmed my anxious mind. From first contact to OPM approval took 5 months. Finally, Robert articulated his service fee up-front. Some say he's a bit on the high side (I think he's reasonable). Why waste time and stress on multiple attorneys or trying to do it yourself. The stakes are too high, and your return on investment is short (especially in light of collecting a monthly check for life). My dad used to tell me, if you want top-shelf liquor, you can't have beer taste and a beer budget. HIGHLY Recommend this attorney!

I am completely satisfied with the work and representation of Mr. McGill. He won my case in a timely manner. My family and I thank you!

Highly Recommend!

If you are looking to secure disability retirement through OPM, I highly recommend Mr. McGill. Do not try and navigate the system alone. He is extremely knowledgable, quickly responded to my many questions and guided me through the entire process. I could not have been successful without him. I am of...ficially retired and could not thank Mr. McGill enough for his efforts on my behalf.

Look No Further....

Mr. McGill's letters were to the point and matter of fact. If you read his letters, they are solid. I had a little "hick up" with my case , OPM had dropped the ball. Mr. McGill's 2nd letter was just as powerful as the first. OPM called me ASAP to apologize for their error and gave us a response i...n what seem like 2 weeks. So why Mr. McGill, Mr. McGill is the lawyer that challenged OPM's monetary rules in relationship to SSDI and won. Because of the favorable ruling, Federal Employees can now keep a little more of their OPM Disability check. This is the kind of lawyer I wanted representing me .
