Excellent Service !!!

Allison was superb during my third appeal for disability. I handled the first to myself and was declined and I should have called them from the beginning. I was nervous about hiring a lawyer and getting headwinked. Turns out it's a flat fee and worth every penny and more. I was a fool not to do it so...oner. During my hearing the trial lawyer was a real intimidating jerk, I hung up at the end in tears. Allison called me after the fact and assured me that in 2 months if we got a negative appeal we would just file a fourth one rest assured. She just plugged on and tried to put his demeanor out of her mind, asked all the right questions, and kept me focused about the facts. About 10 days later I got 100% positivity on my claim. It wouldn't be fair not to give credit to Dawn, who handles all of the legwork, paperwork, back end stuff, from my initial call with her to the very end. She was there every step of the way. Flawlessly efficient, pacient, always returning my calls or emails within a day. Extremely competent law firm! I just wish I called them from the start instead of going it alone for over 2 years!

Excellent Attorney !

After years of living with a condition that qualified for disability, I reached out for some professional advice and my research led me to Affleck and Gordon and finally to Allison Affleck. Ever since my initial consultation, I was kept abreast of updates and changes that affected my case. After an... initial rejection, Allison guided me through the appeals process and finally won my appeal. I cannot thank Allison enough for her attention to detail and dedication to my case. I give her a five star rating and would be happy to recommend her to anyone pursuing a disability case.

Efficient in getting the job done

I could not believe how this team was able to take on my mother's appeal case, in less than 3 months be able to get us a decision we've been waiting on for 3 years. They were efficient with paperwork, follow-ups, checking and asking questions. Most important they didn't doubt my mother's chances like... the previous lawyer we had. I am very pleased that they took our case and got us a win.

Great experience!

I hired Allison in 3/2016 to file my SSD appeal. My appeal was filed promptly, but denied again on 7/2016. Allison then filed for a hearing in front of a judge. While we waited for a hearing date, I was updated via letters, emails and phone calls about the status of my hearing. In 9/2017, we received... notice of my hearing for 12/2017. During my hearing, Allison was professional & knowledgeable about my case and the entire SSD process. I received a fully favorable decision on 1/2018. From start to finish, Allison and her law firm were caring and competent. I would definitely recommend this lawyer!

Allison Affleck

I retained the services of Affleck and Gordon in June 2016. My first two attempts at applying for disability benefits had been denied and my frustration was high. My first appointment was handled very professionally and I felt like I finally had a to win my disability claim. My case seem to be han...dled quickly as I had my hearing in September 2016. I was very nervous, but Allison Affleck accompanied me and my nerves were eased. Allison was supportive and knowledgeable throughout the entire process, Once the favorable decision was awarded Allison stayed in close communication with me, answering all my questions. Just recently, I called on Allison again to assist with a problem that I could not seem to get an answer. Allison always closes each conversation reminding me to reach out to her with any additional concerns I might have. I would recommend Affleck and Gordon to anyone seeking assistance with any compensation matter, as you will not be disappointed.
