3rd attempt for a failed back surgery Disability

I want to give a big THANK YOU to Bill Berke and his right hand..Tami Hill!! After fighting for 3 years for physical disability I never had hope this would ever happen for me but once I started working with Tami and Bill Berke Law Firm I finally had hope, they made me feel like this could really happ...en for me and made me feel at ease. Tami helped me with my anxiety and worries along the way . So when the day came to trial it went smoothly and I felt good about it! Bill called me the week before my trial and walked me through what was going to happen and it worked and after the hearing he called me right back and we knew it was looking good.. I got notified less than two weeks that I won! I couldn’t believe it!! I was ecstatic!! I have since recommended to others searching to find that right Attorney to help in these matters as I’ve heard it’s very hard to get physical disability. Thank you Bill and thank you Tami with all my heart as this is a hugh victory for me, you have saved my life! Feeling blessed, grateful and humbled.

Intimidating Power on Your Side

Bill Berke is an intimidating lawyer. He knows the law and once he is on your side, he is relentless in overpowering bullies who wish to steal from you what you rightfully deserve under the law. He knows what he is doing! His assistant Dina was new to us, but she was very helpful and knowledgeable.... Paralegal Melissa is the heart of Bill Berke's team for disability cases. She truly cares and knows disability law inside and out. What's more, she is a capable communicator who helps you understand what is going on and is patient with your questions. We loved talking to her best. She is in high demand and if she is on your team, you've got a winner! We just loved her! All glory to God for winning our case through this dynamic team.

Won the case for disability claim to be reinstated

My SSI benefits were close to being cancelled December 2019. My family and I immediately contacted the Burke Lawfirm. Ms. Dina Panora did the assessment for the legal intake. They accepted the case. Due to Covid-19 for almost 1 year the hearings were delayed due to the legitimate public emergency hea...lth crisis. I recieved an email notification 11/17/2020 that I had won the case. I was delighted in the results recieved and the accuracy delivered for my circumstance. 5 stars. Mr. Burke has a long-profession of winning civil court cases for the voiceless and the helpless when required. When a civil legal matter is needed I would highly recommend Mr. Burke. You won't regret him.
