The most amazing and helpful lawyer I ever dealt with

We contacted Lisa to get some assistance in dealing with Social Security, this lady was not only extremely well-informed on our issue, but she answered all our questions and give us options of how to proceed without her having to represent us. She was absolutely caring and dedicated to helping u...s without having to be our attorney, we have never experienced that and was quite shocked at how honest and supportive she was in Freely giving us all the legal information and options we needed to be aware of. If we ever need an attorney in the future, she will definitely be our first choice, we highly recommend her.

Social Security Disability

Lisa Smith Siegel was kind, patient and thorough. I am so happy I had the opportunity to work with her. She kept in constant contact with me to obtain all the necessary information needed for my case.

An Honest and Ethical Lawyer!

I was looking for a Lawyer to represent me with my Social Security Disability Claim, and called and spoke with several lawyers of which Lisa Smith Siegel was one. I had been a Dental Hygienist for 22 years and suffered a career ending injury (carpel tunnel syndrome). Most of the lawyers I spoke... with, told me that my claim would be denied, but I could appeal and might win on the first appeal. However Ms. Siegel encouraged me to file on my own and it was her professional opinion that I would be successful with my first application. While I was skeptical, I made my first application. During the 8 months of waiting for a determination, I encouraged myself by replayed our conversation in my head. She has no idea how her advice kept hope alive for me. My application for Social Security Disability was accepted! And I have received all of my retroactive payments and back pay. So if you are looking for a lawyer who CARES MORE ABOUT PEOPLE getting their benefits THAN FILLING HER OWN POCKET Lisa Smith Siegel is your Lawyer!

Your Dream Lawyer

Lisa has a heart as big as the sky. She is your fantasy attorney you only wish you could find. The best way to describe her is to imagine your Dream Lawyer on television who stands for the less fortunate. The lawyer that TRUELY fights for justice and cares about her clients. She has been an inspirati...on to me. I have C-PTSD and never thought that I would win my disability case. In less than a year I was awarded the full amount of my SSD. I was desperate and afraid. She walked me through the process. She is personable, confident, articulate, honest, reliable, truthful, seeks justice and TRUELY cared about the outcome of my case. She strategizes ahead in preparation for her next move on your behalf. She is the real deal. I believe she is so successful because money is NOT the motivating factor in her practice. Her motivation is love for the disabled. Honestly, there are no words to describe her adequately. Love you Lisa, you changed my life.

Avvo Rating

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.
