Phenomenal Attorney!

I was attempting to handle my own disability case for some time. After about a year with no success, I finally decided to hire a lawyer, and I am so grateful to have found Attorney Nanette Cruz. Mrs. Cruz was extremely professional from the very beginning. Her dedicated team always maintained contac...t with me throughout the life of my case, she was able to obtain all the relevant evidence early on, and she took the time to sit with me before my hearing. I was nervous at first, but I felt well prepared when I went before the Judge. I am happy to report that I have been fully approved for my disability, which makes a huge difference in my life. The quality I received from this office, cannot be found in the larger firms. If you're looking for quality, and not just size, I highly recommend Reese Legal. Thank you Nanette!

Amazing work

After having an unsuccessful attempt at getting my case started at Morgan and Morgan, Nanette went above and beyond to make sure she did everything possible to help. I am truly satisfied with the way she quickly and professionally took care of my case and got me the best results possible. I truly rec...ommend hiring her as your attorney.

Above and Beyond the Call

Nanette has been a constant advisor in our SSDI journey. Helping to navigate all the confusion. Alleviating a lot of unnecessary stress. Always available. Always rising to any challenge. I highly recommend Nanette to anyone in need of someone to champion their cause with the Social Security Admin...istration.

SSDI

This is my 2nd time hiring Nanette Cruz. For my husband then for myself. She’s a brilliant attorney. I am grateful for her passion dedication, and professionalism. I have worked with other attorneys before, for other reasons, but she is truly the best I’ve worked with. Thank you so much.

Very informative and helpful

I was initially denied benefits. Ms Cruz appealed my case and represented me in court. Following my court appearance I was granted full benefits. Miss Cruz was well prepared, all of my documentation was in order, and her knowledge of my case was excellent. In addition her office staff was knowledgeab...le and helpful as well. I highly recommend her and her firm.

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.
