Stephan J. Freeman, Esq.

Freeman and Freeman Law Practice Re: Stephan J. Freeman, Esq. Mr. Freeman was instrumental in the successful adjudication of a Social Security Disability claim on my behalf in 2019. His attention to the facts, the details and all the physician reports were impeccable from the initial consultat...ion and through to the end of the case. Mr. Freeman has an extensive expertise and a completely thorough comprehensive knowledge of social security disability law. His pretrial preparation of me and his preparation for presentation in front of the Administrative Law Judge were both exemplary. The law practice is always extremely professional and is always courteous. Should there be a need to contact Mr. Freeman he will always return your phone call to discuss your case well within twenty four hours and a resolution will be afforded. This same scenario will follow accordingly with any email correspondence. There should be absolutely no hesitation in retaining Stephan J. Freeman, Esq. and the Freeman and Freeman Law Practice when considering Social Security Disability.

You're in good hands with Mr. Freeman

Mr. Freeman represented my son in his disability case after his case had been denied while being represented by another lawyer. We had been told that mental disability which wasn't easily discernible was difficult to win. Mr. Freeman took my son's case and won. Mr. Freeman was very knowledgeable a...bout the law and very thorough in reviewing all of the medical records. I attended the hearing and when things began to get bogged down, Mr. Freeman subtly redirected the hearing toward relevant questions. I was so impressed with Mr. Freeman that I referred a friend to him who had also been represented by another lawyer and had been denied disability twice. She was reluctant to pursue the matter again and I encouraged her to use Mr. Freeman. Mr. Freeman won her case as well. I recommend Mr. Freeman wholeheartedly.
