Disability claim

Mr Klein and his assistant Carole were incredibly helpful and supportive yhrough my whole process. Carole was always very responsive and straight to the point with answers. They made this whole process as easy as anyone could ask. Many thanks to the whole team.

I spoke with Kevin twice before he took my case, he wanted to be sure that we even had a fighting chance before even putting me through the rest of the time and work.

Very grateful to have found Kevin Klein to work with for a quick turnaround on a disability case. He was very responsive to every question I had along the way. I attribute any confidence I had to do my end of the paperwork-- due to his coaching, reassurances and help. I'm grateful for the recommend...ation from my Medicare broker for a respected disability lawyer. Highly recommend!

Superb Disability Lawyer!

Kevin Klein was the lawyer who recently handled my social security disability appeals case. He and his team were always very well prepared and handled my case in a professional manner. They were all very responsive to any questions I asked and stayed in touch often during the process. I am very happy... with the outcome of my case. I highly recommend Kevin Klein and his team to anyone in need of a reliable and fair social security disability attorney!

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.
