Daniel Arthur Bridgman

Mr. Bridgman and his staff are very professional, and help ease the anxiety of applying for and getting disability. The office staff handled gathering all my records, completing paperwork from SSA, and kept me informed throughout the entire process. Mr. Bridgman was very professional and reassuring..., and coached me on what to expect during my hearing so I would feel confident and prepared. After years of struggling to get my disability on my own, I came to Mr. Bridgman, and he and his staff helped me win my case. I was in need of life-saving surgery and over my head in medical bills. Because of them helping me win my case, and finally getting disability insurance, I was able to get the surgery I needed. My family and I are forever grateful for that, and I strongly recommend them to anyone needing help with getting disability.

Mr. Bridgman took a complex case that sought to "reopen" prior Title II (SSDI) claim(s) going back as far as 2004. The case involved an "intellectually disabled" member of my family, who had applied for benefits (pro se) on four separate occasions, each time having been denied. Even though several ot...her disability lawyers throughout the region said the claim was a lost cause, and refused to take it, Mr. Bridgman saw it in a different light. Mr. Bridgman not only took the case, but after over a year and a half, he obtained a fully favorable decision from the ALJ. The 2004 application was reopened and payment was made retroactive to 2004. So it is with utmost respect that I say you can't find better representation than that offered by Bridgman law!!!

Mr. Bridgeman was my disability attorney and I was truly disappointed by the way he and his office conducted themselves. The attorney that initially began with me in his firm left that practice. And there was constant turn over within his office. I was spoken to with a tone as if I were bothering the...m when I called with a question. Applying for disability in and of itself is exhausting mentally and emotionally. So be sure to find an attorney that gives you the same respect you give him. In our last court hearing, the judge actually refused to hear my case and very aggressively blamed Mr. Bridgeman for not being prepared and wasting her time. I was devastated. He never once accepted accountability for that, but blamed his staff and the judge. In my opinion, his overall demeanor is what that would be served best in a completely different field.
