Another Case Won By Ginsberg Law!

I tried on my own for 18 months. I went to the Ginsberg Law Offices after watching several of their very informative You Tube videos. Jonathon’s wealth of knowledge led me to then email him and eventually talk on the phone. I knew right away I was talking to the expert that would eventually help me W...IN MY CASE within 6 months!! I am a 100% Disabled Vet and as anyone in my situation finds out, sometimes that does not hold much weight with the SSA. Ginsberg Law led me through the confusing maze of paperwork and SSA bureaucracy while explaining all of the procedures and processes along the way. This is not a quick nor simple task and I was relieved to have them there with me along the way for my appeals. I would highly recommend this firm to anyone filing with the Social Security Administration because this team of experts and attention that you will receive is unmatched. Timely, professional, and caring people with cutting edge programs allowing secure communication online making this as smooth and painless as possible. They help with the heavy lifting and turn this into a team work approach, instead of the painful frustrating uphill battle it can become on your own. I should have started with them from the beginning. Go with Ginsberg Law Offices, you will not find anyone better!!

Don't Hesitate!

After watching some of Jonathan's videos, I hired him to assist me with my disability claim. He and his team helped me with my initial application, medical records, scanning and emailing me the many forms that SSA continually requires, reconsideration, request for a hearing, pre-hearing consultation ...and finally representing me at my video hearing (with a consultation afterwards). During this three year period, I relocated outside of the country and felt well supported by the entire team (A special thank you to Jen for putting up with me!). I have not yet received a decision from the judge, however, I am more than satisfied with the work that went into my claim and am hopeful for a favorable decision. Statistics prove that the chances of obtaining benefits significantly improve by having an attorney represent you, so don't hesitate to contact Jonathan, it's not worth going it on your own, don't gamble with lifetime benefits!

Highly recommend this legal team

Professional, knowledgeable, and accurate. Jonathan Ginsberg took my case after I was denied twice; and winning within the timeline that he predicted. He and his team were extremely helpful and very easy to communicate with, I felt completely prepared and supported for my hearing. I highly recommend ...their services.

The best SSI attorney ever!

When I first consulted with Mr. Ginsberg I was in a very low place in my life. I was used to taking care of myself and my family, then all of a sudden I couldn't do that any more. I was depressed and in constant pain. Mr. Ginsberg listed and seemed to care not only about my case but about me as well.... He was very clear about how it all worked and made sure I understood everything. When we went to court he fought hard for me. He contacted me after court and assured me that it went well. After a couple of weeks he emailed me to tell me we had won my case. I felt so much relief wash over me and this huge weight lifted off my shoulders. I would definitely recommend everyone to give his office a call if they need an SSI attorney! The best part is he is in GA. and I am in Illinois and I never had to leave my house.

I WON!

I can’t say enough about my experience at Ginsberg Law Office. I had recently been denied by SS…twice. I decided at the last minute to hire an attorney and am so glad I did. Jonathan Ginsberg and his associates Jen and Paola worked very hard on my case gathering information, always keeping in close c...ontact if they needed something from me. Prior to my hearing I was well educated on what to expect that day and felt very comfortable going into the online hearing. I never felt left out, or hung up to dry. I always felt that I had someone in my corner. Having never hired an attorney before of course I was skeptical but again I’m so very happy I did. Of course the outcome was positive as I won my case. But I highly doubt I could have done it on my own. Thank you to everyone at Ginsberg Law Office.
