Worker's Compensation Attorney
Mr. Bromley has been a pleasure to work with during my case. He has kept me informed with personal phone calls every inch of the way. Mr. Bromley is prompt at returning phone calls, e-mails, and faxes. I have, and will continue to recommend Mr. Bromley to other people that I know who are in need of an attorney.

Social Security Disability
I would highly recommend David Bromley at The Golden Law Group to anyone. They represented me in my social security disability after another law firm turned me down over the telephone. I have a very unusual disability (probably the first case of my condition that social security had ever seen) and The Golden Law Group staff did not turn me away over the telephone or when I went in for a consultation. My physician highly recommended The Golden Law Group to me after I was previously turned down by the other firm. I was informed up front that my case would be won in court, and they were right. I did receive at first two denials which I was told that the denials may happen, but not to worry. The Golden Law Group did more than what social security asks for to make sure that my case would be approved. They were always on top of my case making sure they had the latest records from my physicians and providing social security with that information. They kept in touch with me either by telephone or email on a regular basis. Sometimes they would just call to check up on me to see how I was doing. By them doing more than what social security needed I believe helped me in getting my disability approved all the way back until 2015.

Social Security
Attorney Bromley represented me for my social security disability case which resulted in a full favorable decision. Attorney Bromley and his staff are very professional, knowledgeable, thorough prompt and caring. They kept me abreast of all updates, changes and what I could expect to happen and when. All of my questions and concerns were answered in a timely manner. Attorney Bromley and his staff really took the load off of shoulders by not having to worry about dealing with any issues because they handled everything for me. Considering what I had experienced before with another law firm, I must say I was really at peace and had confidence in Attorney Bromley that he was the right one to handle my case. I am truly grateful to have met Attorney Bromley. Thank you so much for to your service. Blessings!

Excellent Attorney - Social Security Disability
After being denied disability benefits, I called the Golden Law Group to meet with Mr. Bromley specifically after reading all the positive reviews. My initial consultation I was really nervous but was immediately impressed with his professionalism and honesty. Mr. Bromley was very knowledgeable and all of my questions were promptly answers. After hiring Mr. Bromley, he took the stress and anxiety out of filing for SSD. Jessica, Mr. Bromley's assistant, is amazing and the best! She was always helpful, available and great about updating me on the status of my case at all times and what to expect next, even until the very end when I was approved. I just can't say enough about how great she and Mr. Bromley are. If you are looking for a great disability attorney then Mr. Bromley and Jessica are exactly who you need. You can't go wrong with them!

Ms. K
I retained Attorney David Bromley to represent me in a social security disability claim. He listened carefully to me during the hour long consultation, and he had a clear understanding of my fears and concerns. He and his legal assistant, Jessica Moyer, were on top of my situation at all times, and I felt as though I was in good hands throughout this process. They were always available when I called them. They always treated me with kindness and made me feel as though I mattered to them. I highly recommend this team to anyone who may find themselves needing to go through a social security disability claim process! Thank you both so much!

Very Happy Client.
Mr. Bromley and staff are true professionals, they lead you through the entire process and make sure you are doing what needs to be done to navigate through all the red tape of the Social Security Department and there is a lot. Ask for Tina to be your claim processor, she is super nice, patient and thorough. I received a Fully Favorable Decision (100 percent disabled). Which in part I feel was from Tina making sure I had all my medical records in order. I would not hesitate to hire again.

The process of applying for Social Security benefits is overwhelming. Thankfully I had Mr Bromley to assist me with the paperwork, the hearings, and the gathering of evidence. He and his staff kept me informed every step of the way and were always available to answer any questions.

Don't put off filing for SSDI.
I kept putting off filing for ssdi until it was almost too late for me.  I would have an anxiety attack every time I started seriously thinking about it.  My anxiety issues along with a multitude of other health problems were the reasons I needed to apply.   I had actually picked up David Bromley's brochure at my primary care doctor's office over a year before I finally go up enough nerve to call about a free consultation and spoke to a lovely young lady named Jordyn who asked me some questions and ultimately said that they believed they could help me and set up an appointment for me with David. At that appointment David discussed my health issues and my a work history with me and my husband.   He made me feel that I deserved to have ssdi and he believed that I was qualified for it.  He also gave us some advice on some tests and diagnoses I needed to have taken care of. Once I filled out the online ssdi application, his assistant Jessica Moyer became my main point of contact.  Jessica went above and beyond with me reassuring me that all was going well through out the entire process.  She basically held my hand when my anxiety issues would get the best of me. I was one of the 30 to 35 percent who get approved at their initial application.  I believe that the advice I got from David and Jessica was a big part of why I was approved on my initial application.  I also believe that having a successful and experienced ssdi attorney such as David Bromley's name listed as my lawyer let the SSA know that I would keep fighting until I was approved. They know that David is an expert in this area and would not have taken my case if he didn't believe that I was eligible for it. My advice to anyone who is considering filing for ssdi is to call David Bromley for a free consultation.   Do not delay like I did.  I believe that I missed out on several years of benefits by letting my anxiety keep me from applying. David Bromley is very straightforward and will let you know what he believes your chances are and further what you need do to strengthen your case. Thanks again Jessica,  I wouldn't have made it through without you!

WHAT A THOROUGH AND PATIENT GROUP
I went to the Golden Group, specifically David for Social Security assistance. He took his time, to understand my case, was thorough in his assembly and readying for trial. His secretarial staff, especially Jessica Moyer, conversed and continued to update me on my case. I would recommend David Bromley for all your specific needs.

Our Wonderful Experience with Golden Rule
I am writing on behalf of K. Hanna, in my position as her caretaker. From the initial visit when David visited Kim at the house (she was incapacitated) , through and including our appearance at the SS hearing, the assistance provided by David and his incredible staff has turned an unpleasant experience into a learning and tolerable one. David was a source of calmness to Kim and myself as we found ourselves wading in unknown waters. His professional demeanor at the hearing; the fact that he had all documents marked and ready for the Judge was most impressive. We would especially like to call attention to the professionalism, understanding, promptness in response, explanations and personal attention provided by Jessica Moyer, Executive Administrator. There were times when even though Jessica was buried in work, she still took the time to quickly respond to my queries. We most definitely would recommend The Golden Rule Group to anyone in need of their specialized services.

Great Law Office
I went to see Mr. Bromley after being denied disability two times. It took almost three years and a court date but Mr. Bromley got me my full disability benefits. Through the whole process I was kept in contact with and felt comfortable calling if I had questions. Jessica, Mr. Bromley's assistant, is the absolute best! She was always helpful and available to answer my many questions. She held my hand through the whole time it took to be approved. I just can't say enough about how great she and Mr. Bromley are. If you are looking for a great disability attorney with an amazing staff, then Mr. Bromley and Jessica are exactly who you need. You can't go wrong with them!

Long but pleasant process!
From the beginning to the end of my SSD case, I was always kept in the loop about what was going on. They did all the leg work, I only had to look over and sign paperwork. I wouldn't have been able to do it myself. David was very kind and professional and didn't give up. Jessica, however, was my rock. She kept me informed, hopeful and somewhat sane. She was always there to answer my questions and was very quick to return my calls when she wasnt. I was referred by my sister in law and will definitely refer them to anyone needing their services.

Excellent experience!
When I first met and talked with Dave, he told me what was going on and what to expect. His office called me all the time to keep me updated. The short of it is everything he said is exactly what was and happened. I could have not asked for a better lawyer. 100% happy and satisified. Highly recommended!!!!!

Excellent review
David Bromley and his team have done excellent work for me. I had tried it myself first without getting anywhere. I went to David and he started getting everything I needed for me right away. He was straight forward and made me feel comfortable with the whole thing. Whenever I had questions I was gotten back to right away with the answers. I thank the him and his staff.

Disabilty case
My story began 35 years ago. It has ended here. My doctor was so getting tired of the same complaints. Over and over again I would say, YOU would think with today's technology they could fix me. PUT ME OUT TO PASTURE, IF YOU CANNOT FIX ME. Those words sadly became my montra. Then one day she gave me your business card. Yay real help. Together with Jessica we began our 3 year journey. We gathered all the reports from many doctors offices and Jessica made this happen. Jessica answered all my many questions over the time period. Pleasant,always professional and compassionate. Kudo's out to Jessica. Thank you again for ALL you have successfully helped me accomplish. Would highly recommend you,David Bromley and your firm to anyone seeking a favorable result.
