Highly recommend

Robert filed my USPS FERS disability for me after an off the job injury. It was so stressful not knowing how I was going to move forward after working for the PO for 24 years. Robert made the process so easy and any questions I had were answered VERY promptly and with much empathy. He is very knowled...geable, and I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs this type of lawyer.

Highly recommend!

I researched attorneys for my federal disability retirement application thoroughly and interviewed several. It was difficult for me to entrust a virtual stranger with the task of representing me when the outcome would have life long ramifications. Even more so because these were not in person intervi...ews as there were no attorneys specializing in this area who were local to me. Bottomline, you can trust that Attorney Robert Mcgill will do everything that he says he will do and more. As the application came together and was submitted, I realized that this truly is someone who understands the FERS disability process and knows exactly what information is needed and how to present that information to receive an approval. He is who he says he is; he is an expert in this area. He quickly responds to emails and calls and hones in on the issues wasting no time. I am so thankful that I came across Robert Mcgill on the internet. I’m grateful for his patience and perhaps most importantly the pride he takes in his work and in getting the job done and winning the case. Believe him. You can trust him. He understands FERS disability retirement and this aspect of OPM and federal agencies inside and out. I truly believe if Robert Mcgill cannot get an approval done and, possibly in record time, then perhaps no one can because he’s mastered this process. Thank you Robert. I will be referring anyone I encounter who needs help with FERS disability retirement to you (and already have)!

Don't Summit Alone!

If you are considering attaining counsel for your pursuit of federal employee disability retirement, look no further than Mr. Robert McGill. At the onset, it is difficult to understand the breadth involved in applying for and attaining disability retirement. On one hand, it may seem straightforward a...nd doable on your own, however, on the other hand, it can seem impossible and confusing. Having successfully completed the process, I liken Robert’s counsel and aid to my success to that of a Sherpa leading the way to a summit. Similarly, the process of disability retirement is rife with pitfalls and setbacks, and having a skilled guide ensuring that your application does not run out of oxygen is paramount to success. Continuing with the mountaineering analogy, know that patience is a virtue! You do not climb a mountain in one day, nor do you summit the disability retirement process in short order. This is especially true in today’s unpredictable times, and particularly in our ever-changing government bureaucracies. Mr. McGill’s record and myriad references speak for themselves. Trust in his experience and trust that if your case is well-founded and supported that you will receive the guidance needed to persevere. Thank you, Robert! And best of luck to your current and future clients.

Very happy! :)

Robert got me my FERS disability retirement at the MSPB, despite two denials by OPM. A frustratingly long process courtesy of the government, but ultimately successful thanks to Robert’s hard work! I don’t think I would have had the wherewithal to carry it to completion myself during an exceedingly f...rustrating period in my life, which is what the other side ultimately banks on. A good retirement attorney is definitely worth it!
