Disability Rating - Support

First of all, I was referred by a friend to contact Jan Dils because I was trying to increase my VA rating. From there on, Jan Dils took care of everything that were needed to facilitate the increase of my disability rating. All I had to do was to show up to all my VA medical appointments that were... coordinated by Jan Dils with VA. Jan Dils also kept me updated with the status of my case on a monthly basis. After a few months of Jan Dils working my case, my rating increased to 90%. After a few months more my rating was bumped to 100%. All the Jan Dils lawyers that helped me were kind and professional. I have since referred friends to Jan Dils because of my outstanding personal experience with them. When I tell my VA rating experience, individuals almost always ask for Jan Dils contact number. Thanks Jan Dils of your outstanding support to me and my Family.

Best Way To Go With The Most Caring Workers

I contacted your law firm back in 2021 and they did the consultation over the phone and was very mannerly and explained things to me that I was not sure if. My case was a SSDI case that had been denied. I contacted COVID. I almost died from it. I was not able to go back to work or drive again. I h...ave nerve damage in my right leg. But the Jan Dils Law Firm employees that I had on my case went out of their way for me. I would like them to be noticed: Ms. Chelsea Parker, Julia, Melissa and Amanda Richards. I will pass on the word about this company and the way your company knows how to treat people with courtesy and respect.

Amazing!

Rarely do I write review or answer surveys regarding a service, but in the case of Jan Dil’s, legal services I felt a need to sing praises to Jan as well as her employees. Not knowing who to call for help with obtaining Social Security Disability, I googled the SSD attorneys and blindly picked Jan Di...l’s office. I was helped immediately. Not only was I given encouragement, but treated with great respect as well. I would encourage anyone who isn’t sure if they qualify for SSD services or any other needs to please call Jan Dil’s office. Your questions will be answered and you will be given the attention that you need!

They came through for me

This review is brutally honest. I worried for over two years whether or not I would be approved. I heard all the horror stories of people worse off than me being declined and had no idea how I would survive if I had been denied so when my phone consultation was scheduled with the attorney (Laronda), ...was anxious but prepared. Then no one called. I waited for nearly an hour and called Jan Dils office. The attorney rescheduled my consultation for two weeks later and again no call so I asked for a different attorney . My new attorney was Corey Lowe. I spoke with him for approximately 25 minutes going over the details of my case and that was that. When you see billboards and watch Jan Dils commercials you expect the attorneys to be the best at what they do and Corey was just that. The day of my hearing the judge asked me only routine questions such as name dob etc… that was it., Corey did all the work and explained my issues better than I ever could have. In fact, the judge complimented him on how well prepared my case was. The lesson I would like to share is be patient, speak up if you need to and when you do have a consultation try to be as best prepared as possible by writing things down. Having said that, I forgot lots of things but the staff at Jan Dils did not and addressed it at trial. I highly recommend these folks, especially attorney Corey Lowe.

Went from va 0 percent to va rating 100percent

Jan Dilis and associates are absolutely amazing. From the start of my case to the finish I have felt they have been with me every step of the way. First off they were the only one to even decide to take on my case from the many people that we talked to. Jan Dils and her team work so hard to get my be...nefits that was due to us from 7 years ago, I am here to tell you I was shocked to see a ratting of 100 percent from the va disability claim. I was rated at 0percent 7 years ago, this team is Amazing. Our situation may be different then urs but they felt it was due to us and when it was time to get compensated they told us they didn't want anything they were just happy they were able to help us. I even tried to offer compensation and they wouldn't take it. I urge you if u are wondering if u have a case or not call this law firm they will be ur best option.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
