BEST DECISION EVER

After losing my job to a debilitation injury, I was extremely fortunate to find the Freeman and Freeman law firm in St. Petersburg. i wasn't very positive about my chances of receiving Social Security Disability Benefits, especially since I had already been denied once. Stephan Freeman met with me ...and was extremely upfront and honest about what he could accomplish for me. He had faith during times when I didn't. Hiring Stephan was the single best decision I made during this ordeal. I am very grateful for his services and ability to win on my behalf. He knows his stuff when it comes to Social Security Disability.

Disability Case: Outcome Favorable, case won.

After my disability Case was denied several times I was then referred to Mr. Freeman by a few family members.. From the time I entered the office of Freeman And Freeman, I was treated with nothing but the utmost respect and compation not only by Mr. Freeman, but by his staff as well... They kept the ...lines of communication open and by doing so, this firm in return gained my respects. Mr. Freeman's honest and professional approach gave me a sense of confidence that he was the right person to represent my case... In doing so he gained a favorable outcome to a winning disability Case in which I am so great full for... I appreciate all that he and his staff provided and would recommend this firm any day..

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.

Excellent disability attorney

Competent and knowledgeable disability attorney. Successfully processed my application for disability from start to finish. I followed his advice and won my claim after the 2 years he said it would take.

Great Service Provided

We hired Attorney Freeman for my daughter's SS Disability claim. I had looked into several firms but this was one that not only answered our questions, but we actually talked to and met with the attorney! Their follow-up and follow thru was excellent. I believe their service was instrumental in h...aving her application approved the first time.
