Robert F. Kiel

If you are looking to file for disability I highly recommend Law Office of Robert Kiel and his staff. They were able to navigate me through the process, I would not have been able to do this myself.I must have called them a hundred times with questions and they were always ready to help me, and called back when I left messages.

Attorney Robert Kiel has won 2 separate claims of social security disability for my daughter Stephanie. He has worked tirelessly and with his intelligence, diligence and heart he has made sure my daughter who is disabled has had her voice heard. He has fought for her rights as a disabled child and got her benefits that she has so deserved in a short period of time. I thank Attorney Robert Kiel immensely. It is due to him that my daughter will have the ability to function better with the benefits he has won for her. I would overwhelmingly recommend Attorney Kiel for any parent or child who is need of an excellent lawyer for Social Security disability.

Robert Kiel and his staff were the best thing to happen to me after being unable to work for many years due to my disabilities. He was a professional who helped me win my disability claim as well as 5 years back pay. He was a perfect coach for my hearing. Call Robert and speak with his staff. You will win.

To Whom As a former high-end Network Engineer coming from a top company, somewhat, spoken with no visual disabilities I had failed several attempts at SSDI and felt to have no chance of passing my hearing. However with Mr. Kiehl's Professionalism, help and kindness I when right through the government process, John E,

I needed information on the Social Security disability process and Mr. Kiel was extremely informative in our consultation. My only regret is that my family member didn't hire him at the initial stages of his process. I would highly recommend Mr. Kiel to handle your claim, he evidenced caring, knowledge, and a willingness to spend the time necessary for his client to understand the process and be prepared for a hearing.

This is by far the most professional and attentive law Firm and I highly recommend Robert and his team. I actually chose them based on other reviews and am so happy that I did! They are very knowledgeable regarding the entire disability process and very supportive every step of the way. They were always available by phone when needed and took their time explaining the process and answered all questions that we had . Thanks to Robert, Luis and Olivia and because of them we received a successful verdict!

I highly recommend Robert and his team. I was referred to Robert Kiel by another client who won a favorable decision for SSDI disability under Robert’s guidance. Robert and his team (Luis and Olivia) were very thorough and patient throughout the long application and appeals process for SSDI. They took the time to explain things I did not understand and were always responsive and respectful. They stuck with my case which went all the way to the Hearing level. One of the things they do is prep you for the hearing and make sure you are as prepared as possible. If it wasn’t for them I would not have received a “favorable decision.” Go with Robert!

Outstanding personal attention to detail. Robert really cares and does all he can for his clients. Won my case which dated. back to 2009. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

My name is Tim Connor, I became disabled in 2013. Shortly after I became disabled, I filed for Social Security Disability benefits on my own, and was turned down by the Florida Stare reviewers; Thanks Social Security! In 2014 I decided to appeal the decision and hired a Social Security Law firm to provide counsel. The appeal hearing took place in Fort Lauderdale in front of Administrative Law Judge with no representation whatsoever from my attorney. Their lack of support and knowledge of my case resulted in an "Unfavorable Decision." That firm subsequently recommended that I not appeal the decision, and informed me that they were withdrawing from further "representation" of me. They also informed that I had 60 days to appeal if I chose to pursue it on my own or with another counselor. I called several other Social Security Law firms that I found on Google, all of which also recommended that I drop my case as the chances of winning an appeal were by far against me, and would be a waste of time and effort. As I stubbornly continued my search, I happened upon Robert Kiel's firm in the Google search results. When I called them, they took interest in my case immediately, met with me personally to learn the details of my case, and agreed to represent me in my last appeal. Robert Kiel and his team treated me with respect and dignity, and spent hours educating me about the process and what we needed to do as a team to have a chance to win the appeal. They studied hundreds of pages of medical records, and reviewed the recordings from my previous hearing to build a case in my favor. They had to prove to the appeals judges that the first judge, who heard my case in 2016, had made an error about the facts and the law in his decision! To challenge the unfavorable decision, Rob and his team created a detailed brief of my case and sent the appeal to the Appeals Council. Upon their review, not one, but two judges ruled to throw out the first judge's incorrect Unfavorable Decision, and granted me a new hearing for my appeal! My claim was then re-heard on June 11, 2018, and the same judge that denied me benefits just two years ago, now granted me the benefits I deserved, thanks to the expert counsel of Robert Kiel. Thank you again to Robert Kiel and his team, Luize and Olivia, for all the guidance and support they provided to help me win my case. They stuck with me, and never gave up until we won.

Robert and his staff were recommended by a good friend. After being hired, he and his staff continually encouraged me when I was losing faith ... Robert and his staff were so kind, knowledgeable, professional, and PATIENT with me and my case. Not only were they successful in helping me to get my disability, they (especially Robert) helped me and answered all questions/concerns which motivated me to pursue this process--they knew -- they just knew what they were doing !!! I couldn't be more pleased or grateful. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

I felt comfortable and unlike the attorney I have hired. Lewis the assistance was so helpful helping me with questions and concerns of what to expect fighting for my disability. I hired Lavan & Neidenburg. The day of the my hearing. I was not properly prepared for my hearing. I am assuming I may need Attorney Robert to help me because from the initial conversation to the point of all my concerns they were answered. Thank you for letting me know it's real attorneys that will help the disabled.

I did my homework when retaining Mr. Kiel. He has over 20 yrs experience in disability. It was a pleasure to work with Robert Kiel and his team. They are very responsive, straight shooters, they know their stuff. I was very happy from day one. I couldn't have done it without them. I had multiple legal challenges, and have been chronically ill for awhile. They truly understood my situation and worked for me and treated me with respect and empathy. Eternal Gratitude does not even sum it up.

Robert F. Kiel was enormously helpful in my hour of need when my disability occurred. It was a particularly difficult case as I have many acute and chronic maladies which were handled in a concise and efficient manner. My case was especially challenging with many aspects to it. Mr. Kiel was helpful in assisting me to organize a vast amount of information and did his utmost in handling my case with great direction and follow-up. His acumen in his field was most welcome because medical and legal matters require much analysis and, plain old hard work. He cares about the difficulty the patient is in. He deserves ones highest commendation.

I called to inquire about their firm possibly representing me for an SSDI application and case. Olivia, a legal assistant, was very professional and courteous and spent several minutes discussing my situation and said she felt I had a strong case and believed they would be able to help me. She asked me to hold and a gentleman named Luis picked up the phone and began asking me questions. He loudly talked over me and became increasingly loud and hostile. I'm still not sure as to why. He said that there was a large gap (one year) in my "medical treatment" that I could not account for and I explained that I was advised by my orthopedist that the only possible treatment available is to have surgery at this point. I don't have insurance so I have not been able to get the surgery. He began to yell at me and when I asked him to please lower his voice and allow me to finish at least one sentence he told me that I was wasting his time and I should call another lawyer. When I pointed out that both he and Olivia said that they felt I had a strong case until I asked him to stop yelling he became even angrier and said, "Fine, just talk to Olivia then!" She got back on the line and confirmed that they could not help me and wished me luck. I never complain and this is the first review I have ever written. However, I was so stunned and shook up that I decided to ask to speak to Mr. Kiel to tell him what had transpired. While he did offer the name of two other attorneys he was curt and dismissive and clearly agitated. I've never had an experience like this before. I cannot express the level of unprofessionalism and rude tone, enough. I'm fine with them not wanting to represent me, but the level of rudeness was over the top for me.
