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!

THE BEST

.I just want to say JanDils went above and beyond my expectations. I had lost my Social Security hearing and my lawyer told me to find a lawyer to represent me for the VA I was on a website and an instant message from JanDils came up and it was a girl named Tina who asked if she could help me with a ...social security or VA disability question.Anyway Tina asked me if I could send her permission to have her look at my VA file to see if she could help me. I gave her permission she sent me a package I filled it out and that was it. I filled out the package sent it back and didn't hear nothing for about a year. Then I got a phone call from JanDils requesting me if I would see a psychiatrist. JanDils would pay for the psychiatrist unless I won then I would have to pay JanDils back and that would be a good thing to pay JanDils back if JanDils wins. So I went and saw the psychiatrist it was a phone call only to find out that I had a avoidant personality disorder which the VA have never diagnosed me with . I had been seeing a counselor and nurse practitioners for five years once a month and never did they diagnosed me with an avoidant personality disorder. So another year goes by and the VA got in touch with me to have me see a psychiatrist that they hired only to show that I had the same diagnosis from JanDils psychiatrist.Two different psychiatrists same diagnosis. JanDils got me 70% for my anxiety because she hired a psychiatrist at her expense because she knew that there was a serious problem here that the VA was not recognizing. I am 55 years old and this avoidant personality disorder has been with me my whole life and JanDils is the one who got me help. I originally went to JanDils for my feet which is where I injured in Bud's basic underwater demolition SEAL training. I already had 30% for my feet and she got me 50% for my feet. she also put in a claim for my ankle which I also got 10% . JanDils also got me 40% for my right arm where I tore a tendon when I fell because of my feet and I had surgery that did not take.I started with 60% before I hired JanDils by the time I got done she had me at 190% disabilities which I only need to get a hundred percent. What that extra 90% did for me though was she got me extra pay I ended up with over $40,000 and that was after she got paid so that's enough for me to get a good car to put my Walker in So I can get to my appointment.Please give JanDils a shot they saved my life you got nothing to lose and everything to gain please get in touch with Jan dilis .also i paid nothing out of my own pocket. Jan Dils only gets paid if you win.

Fantastic attorney

My VA claim was handled with great results. I won my case due to the great work of the Jan Dills team. The attorney handling my case knew my file completely and brought out the facts VA had overlooked and won my case for me. They really know what they are doing and will fight tooth and nail for you. ...I am left with the feeling that they cared more about me than the money they would make off my claim.

Avvo Rating

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.
