A Big Thanks for All Your Help!!

Jonathan is a wonderful advocate for his clients. In 2011 he helped me with my Social Security Disability appeal and I was extremely pleased with his knowledge and the professional way he handled my case. I called him yesterday, 4 years after my claim was settled, to see if he could assist me with ...information for a friend of mine in South Carolina who was having difficulty navigating the red tape of the SSA system. We talked for over a half hour, and he gave me some great references and suggestions of potential resources to help me assist my friend. Thanks again Jonathan!!

Took time to talk with me even though I'm not a client

I contacted Mr. Ginsberg's office after viewing some of his many professional, informative videos on youtube. Although Mr. Ginsberg was not able to take my case, he spent over 45 min. sharing his expertise as to my options and referring others that could help with my situation. I have been in cont...act with over 50 attorneys in the last few months. Mr. Ginsberg is one of the few who was genuine about trying to help me. Finding the right attorney is crucial. If circumstances change in my case, I WILL be calling Mr. Ginsberg again.

Jonathon Ginsberg is a great social security disability attorney and I highly recommend him. I was privileged to have him prepare and represent me at my hearing which was favorable. My standards and expectations were high, his extensive knowledge, professionalism, commitment and communication level... exceeded my military demands. His videos are very informative, he has integrity, and I will use him again if I ever need an attorney!

Having Mr. Ginsberg as my attorney was the best decision I had made!!

I have nothing but praise for Mr. Ginsburg and his staff. I needed to hire an attorney to represent me for a decision that could let me and my family have a little more comfort due to my disability. I have lived in Georgia for a short time and had to rely on using the internet to find the best qu...alified attorney. I was very worried of getting a "lemon" . I was fortunate to find Mr. Ginsberg. His staff did a great job of keeping me on task and was very honest and open as to what I should expect, how long the process takes( almost 2 years for my case), being denied and going through the hearing process. That was Mr. Ginsburg's time to go to bat for me. I was so impressed by how thorough and knowledgeable he is making sure he had all the facts to plead my case. You can see he has a great working relationship with the judge. It makes you feel he is well respected in his field. When I started looking for an attorney my feeling of getting disability income, I would not get it. As we continued my case I felt more confident because of the Ginsberg team. My hearing is over and we won our case! I owe this to Mr. Ginsberg. Thank you. If you need a great attorney to help you with your disability case you need not look any further. Simply the best!!
