Smooth like butter.

Every step of this very long process was made eceptionally easy through her hard work. She made me feel comfortable about all the stuff I didn't understand. I would highly recommend Lila Forro to anyone who needs an excellant disability lawyer.

Highly Reccomended, Outstanding Attorney

Review Lila The filing of a Social Security disability claim and the subsequent appeals process is confusing and a complicated process. It is often overwhelming to locate, prepare, and present the information you are looking for when you are faced with a disability claim denial. Hiring experienced... representation will definitely alleviate that burden, as well as ensure that you are able to prove your disability to the Social Security Administration. Being represented by Lila T Forro you will receive the best representation available in the industry of disability law firms My attorney, Lila T Forro, went the extra mile in preparing and presenting my case to the administrative law judge. Her Diligent work was responsible in garnering a "Fully Favorable" decision from the judge resulting in a back-pay award. I would Highly recommend to anyone who is going through the disability process with Social Security Administration to call you. Communication with Lila was respectable and appreciated. and was always professional , courteous and appropriate. I was very confident being represented with Lila and she was highly effective and I appreciated that She knew my case very well and presented it in a highly effective manner at my hearing. There was joy when She called me and informed me of the Fully Favorable Decision and then when I received and read the letter from Social Security, that confirmed the Fully Favorable! Even though my physical pain continues on a daily basis It is nice to know, I had the experience of a professional attorney to help win my case Thanks again for helping me and taking my case you are Highly Recommended to anyone in need of help with the SSA disability process

  • 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.
