Changed my life

Mr. McGill changed my life. Disibility retirement is a stressful process. Having Mr. McGill on my side made it less stressful. He did all the work and I was approved. I highly recommend this fine man. Shaun Postal service (retired) Nebraska

Professional, courteous, attentive and EXTREMELY knowledgable. Get's the job done.

To say that Mr. McGill's legal knowledge, especially about the inner workings of OPM and federal disability law, is considerable would be an understatement. It's exceptional. As is his professionalism and care with your case. It's a lengthy process. At least it was for me. About 1 yr and 6 m...os from the moment Mr. McGill initiated paperwork between myself, my doctors and the HR dept at my agency (USCIS) to the moment I (finally) received the approval letter of benefits from OPM. I truly believe that I, nor any other lawyer, would not have been nearly as successful, without the use of a few appeals. With Mr. McGill my claim was processed and approved from the initial submission. Whenever I needed clarity on anything in the interim, I knew that I could reach out to him and that he would respond immediately with clear and succinct answers and advice. I cannot recommend his services MORE! If you decide to attain his legal help, you should go into it knowing full well that you're in good hands and that he will handle your case to the fullest. I hope this helps anyone out there searching and sitting on the fence about Mr. McGill. Don't waste anymore time and contact him immediately. The sooner you do, then the sooner you'll (most likely) retire.

Federal Disability Retirement

I contacted Mr Robert McGill based on the information on his website and after reading his client reviews. He responded to my first inquiry within less than 24 hours and answered all of my questions. He is very knowledgeable and was able to answer all of my initial questions and offered additional ...information which my own government agency was not able to do. Once hired, he immediately began working for me, contacting my doctors and preparing all of the paperwork. Even after final paperwork was submitted, Mr McGill continued to answer my questions and within 7 month, I received approval of my disability claim. Currently he continues to assist me regarding receipt of my interim payments. His fee is fair and affordable and you get more than your money's worth. Not only is he professional and knowledgeable, but he is also compassionate and concerned over your well being throughout the process.

Never Give Up; Hire Mr. McGill

I was a little skeptical hiring a lawyer for my disability retirement only because I was almost 3 years into filing claims and submitting supporting documents and at each level I was denied. But then a friend told me that I should not give up and I should hire and attorney. So I googled OPM disabil...ity lawyer and Mr. McGill name came up. So I read the reviews, prayed and after about 2 weeks decided to give him a call. I called at 8 a.m. expecting to leave a message but he answered the phone. So I briefly explained my situation and he gave me some general information and told me to contact him if I decided to proceed. Long story short, Mr. McGill stayed on top of all the deadlines and keep me informed along the way. When he called me I knew that progress was being made because he explained everything that was going on. Mr. McGill is the best.

USPS Disability Retirement

Mr. McGill truly cares about getting the job done. I knew it would take some time, so I didn't contact him a lot during the waiting game, but whenever I sent an e-mail to him he responded back within minutes. Have dealt with other attorneys and at times it seems you cant even communicate with your ow...n attorney, but Mr. McGill was a pleasant surprise. Approval on first go around but was assured he would be there if an appeal was needed, and truly believe that would have happened. He did most all the paperwork/medical gathering, not me.
