The best of the best in obtaining a FERS medical retirement

Mr. Robert McGill will initially give you a free telephone consultation to hear your particular situation and will then sincerely let you know if he thinks you have a chance at successfully securing a medical retirement with OPM. He will then provide you a long list of references for you to review. ... I did exactly that, and everyone I contacted told me how great he was. I also read just about all his reviews available, and did not encounter one single negative review. Additionally, I read the many articles/blogs that he has written regarding this medical retirement process and It became quite evident that he is an authority in this field. After speaking with Mr. McGill a second time, I retained his services. From day one, he was extremely professional, informative, patient, and honest. He will personally promptly return all calls and emails. No secretary, no paralegal, or any other type of assistant will speak you, but just him. He will keep you posted every step of the way, and will go above and beyond to help you secure your medical retirement. From the day OPM received my completed package (after my employer did their part and forwarded it to them), it took OPM 10 weeks to approve my case. Mr McGill knows the ins and outs of this convoluted process and will prepare a solid case to submit to OPM. He is by far the best in this field! He is the real deal and will give your case 100% of his experience, knowledge, and ability. Do not waste your time with anyone else! His fees, in my opinion, are extremely low for the level of professional representation you will receive. I am forever grateful to him. God bless him!

Strongly recommend

Mr. McGill was great during my federal disability retirement case from the post office. He is an expert in federal law. Mr. McGill always answered my calls and emails. Don't hesitate to hire him!

Professional and Dependable

Robert R. McGill did exactly what he said he would do. He was promptly responsive to all my inquiries. Most importantly, he achieved the end result I was seeking, and my claim was approved the first time. I highly recommend his services to anyone seeking federal disability retirement.

Best of the best!

I applied for disability retirement on my own and was denied by OPM even though NFC said I was disabled and there was nothing they could do to accommodate me further. I phoned an attorney who did not seem to be very interested since I was denied and believed I had less then a 50/50 chance. I then pho...ned Mr. Mcgill for his opinion. He was very certain that I would get an approval. I was nervous due to our distance of I residing in New York and Mr. McGill in Maryland. I took the chance and hired him immediately. He fought hard and kept me in the loop the enter time. He is so kind and ALWAYS answers emails, phone calls and returns a missed call ASAP. He submitted the second request and I was denied once again. Mr. McGill was getting ready for a court date that was made. However, before the court date Mr. McGill contacted me that we won!!! I literally started crying. Within five weeks of him notifying me of the win, I was finally given a date to be removed from service. I could not be more thankful and will definitely be in contact with him further as my disability attorney, if and when OPM contacts me for updates of my conditions. I definitely recommend him. He is the real deal, the BEST of the BEST!!

People He answers his phone

Don’t hesitate in hiring Mr McGill! At the end of a long stressful journey at my end of hope, I research and called him. People he answered his phone. In less than 2months the denial was reversed to approved. I CAN NOT express my gratitude enough. He gets it done.
