also known as OPM Disability Retirement Lawyer, OPM Disability Retirement Lawyer
I am an OPM Disability Retirement Lawyer and have been practicing Federal Disability Retirement Law for over 25+ years.
Federal Disability Retirement, under FERS or CSRS, is a “paper presentation” to the U.S. Officer of Personnel Management. If it is denied twice — both at the Initial Stage of the process as well as at the Second, Reconsideration Stage — then an appeal can be filed with the U.S. Merit Systems Protection Board. To be successful in geting disability retirement benefits at any of the 3 stages, it is important to consult with an OPM Federal Disability Retirement Lawyer to optimize your chances of success.
As an OPM Disability Retirement Lawyer, I believe that my educational background and experience makes me uniquely qualified in this field, and that is why I enjoy a high rate of success in getting my clients approved — at all three stages of the process.
I charge a “flat fee” — a 1-time fee not based upon an hourly rate. I decided years ago that I was not going to “nickle-and-dime” my clients, and that my clients were going to know up front what I charge.
I earned a B.A. in Philosophy from the Catholic University of America and graduated at the top of my class, summa cum laude. I then went on to do graduate work at the University of Virginia, and completed all course work for a Masters in Philosophy. Thereafter, I went to Law School and graduated from the Columbus School of Law, earning my Juris Doctor Degree.
My background and training in logic, analytical thought, writing technical philosophical treatises, and earning further training in the Law has prepared me to practice Administrative Law, where the majority of legal argumentation is through paper submissions and transactions. Persuasive argumentation, logical delineation and legal analysis are the tools for a successful outcome in representing Federal and Postal workers to obtain their Federal Disability Retirement benefits.
It is a passion of mine, and my clients will attest to the thoroughness of my work.

Phenomenal!!!
Mr. McGill is an outstanding lawyer and was an absolute pleasure to work with. From the outset, he put me at ease. I am in federal law enforcement and was unable to continue working just shy of the required 20 years required to lock in my law enforcement pension for various mental health conditions...

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...

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...

OUTSTANDING Service and Invaluable Peace of Mind
When I became seriously injured while working for the United States Post Office, I was told by my Orthopedic Surgeon that I was 100% disabled. I was already in the process of applying for Workers Compensation (without an attorney). That was a never-ending nightmare of filling out forms, gathering med...
