Robert R. McGill

Robert R. McGill expertly handled my application for OPM disability retirement, and it was approved! It was a complex case, because I had already separated from federal service. But he did not flinch, he just handled it. Here are some details about my experience with him. He always answered his p...hone, or he called me back the same day every time. I never had to deal with an assistant, just him directly, every time! He answers his e-mail, same day, every time! He clearly, directly, and effectively explains what you need to do. He clearly, directly, and effectively explains what he is going to do. Once all of the steps/tasks are accomplished, and the package is ready, he submits it and keeps tabs on OPM. He is there throughout the whole process, including when complexities arise. I hired him because I was told he is the best. I recommend him now because it is true. If you need your disability retirement to be approved, he'll get it done.

I was truly blessed to find Mr. McGill when I was at my wit’s end, very sick with PTSD and knew I could no longer perform my job with the Department of Defense, but I had no clue what to do next; Mr. McGill did, and I sincerely thank him!! I would honestly give him 10 stars, if able, because he is... an overall phenomenal attorney who specializes and excels in ONLY Federal Disability Retirement. Plus, he cares about those whom he is representing! I feel he is unmatched in his legal acumen and very familiar with the routine players at OPM and the convoluted forms and processes which make it very clear you are most likely in for a fight for a benefit to which you are fully entitled!! Mr. McGill becomes your fist line of defense in whom you can trust to have your best interests at heart and will always reply to your emails and/or phone calls within 24 hours and most often, real time, which is extremely helpful when you have extreme anxiety about your financial future and ability to take care of your medical expenses!! He helped me through a lot of form requirements that I could not even become to comprehend due to my PTSD. Before hiring him, I read a lot of his reviews and articles and thought he sounded too good to be true so I was hesitant to hire him; however, that’s NOT the case. He is truly as good as all of his reviews indicate!! He is the SOLE reason I have FINALLY been awarded my Federal Disability Retirement after initial denial where OPM appeared to have not read anything we sent, and then, our subsequent appeal. His superior skills resulted in an exemplary, well written appeal focused on my disabilities, and I was approved in approximately 2 weeks after Attorney McGill submitted our appeal!! He is not afraid to be extremely frank and brutally honest with OPM to get your case approved! Again, We WON -- I have officially received my Federal Disability Retirement, courtesy of Mr. McGill!! Mr. McGill is beyond amazing; he’s real; paramount in his abilities, responsive and very caring! I thank Mr. McGill for all his efforts, caring, unparalleled wisdom and intelligence because he literally changed me and my family's lives!!

When I first thought of filing for disability, I called Mr. McGill. I was impressed from the start. I read his blogs and reviews and hired him with confidence. Mr. McGill answered the phone when I called or promptly returned all my calls normally within hours but never longer than a day. He fully ans...wered all my questions. His knowledge of OPM disability law is top tier. This may get removed, but from my viewpoint, he is the best in the nation "as evidenced by his reviews and 99 percent approval stats" (this is not an unsupported claim). This guy knows his stuff. Take your case seriously as he devotes himself totally to your case. Read all his blogs and info - and avoid landmines - think about it! Hire him right up front because if you think you can do this alone - remember "OPM goes by the law only" which is where Mr. McGill shines. He is also a very nice person. Have confidence in him and help him help you. I also visited my doctors frequently and communicated what I was trying to do - they must support you. Mr. McGill helped me with my narrative and correctly processed all paperwork which is "paramount". He was knowledgeable about submission dates, asking for more time, engaging with my supervisor and HRO folks when needed and most importantly, he engaged my doctors fully and helped them help me. Mr. McGill injects a level of understanding of the law and technical writing skills that are needed to win a case. Yes, he is that good. Remember read his blogs and be your narrative. He will drastically increase your chances of winning because he knows exactly what he is doing. Thank you.

I hired Mr. McGill to represent me in a federal retirement claim. I found him to be extremely knowledgeable, prompt, courteous, and most of all, effective. He patiently answered my questions, and would respond to me almost immediately. Due to his knowledge of the system, I was quickly (for the gov...ernment) approved for a disability retirement. I have no qualms about giving him a 5-star rating.
