A Lawyer that cares about her clients

I have used a few attorneys, but Carol Avard is the only attorney that has a heart. I was relieved beyond words when I learned that the decision from SSA was in my favor. For the last three months, I was reassured knowing that you were representing me with expertise and compassion. Please accept m...y sincere thanks for handling my case.

Outstanding Lawyer

I was in Law Enforcement for 23 years and have seen numerous law firms perform in Criminal and Civil cases. After becoming unexpectedly disabled I was placed in a position where I now needed representation for my Social Security Disability case. After asking around several people recommended the Avar...d law firm, they all said they were a good firm. Those recommendations of Avard being a good firm was a severe understatement, they are an outstanding firm. With some law firms it’s just about the money, but the Avard Law Firm truly cares about their clients and will fight to the end for what is right and just. I had numerous instances where the Social Security Judge violated not only my rights but social security law and they caught him every time, they are not afraid to fight for their clients. It has been my experience watching lawyers perform in court over the years that most of the time they are unprepared and looking to make the quick deal and buck, but not this firm. They are heavily involved in their cases and are completely prepared when representing a client. As far as their expertise in the law you cannot find a more knowledgeable firm and they will do everything in their power to get you what is deserved. I won my case due to their hard work and dedication to the client, I strongly recommend this firm to anyone needing representation and you would be doing yourself an injustice by going with any other Law Firm.

You'll do all the work! Staff is Terrible

DO NOT HIRE!!!! I hired Avard Law Firm to assist me in my SSDI appeal. The attorney who represented me in my hearing was excellent. HOWEVER, the staff is terrible. They do nothing. I had to get all my records and submit it to SSI myself because they didn't. Although, they kept saying they did. They n...ever call SSI for anything. I had to call SSI myself to request a hearing date. And after I won in my hearing, they washed their hands of me. They didn't want to answer any questions. BUT they sure snatched that $9,200 from my SSI back pay real quick. So if you want to do all the leg work and just pay almost $10 grand for an attorney to be in a 15 minute hearing with you, then you're in the right place with them.
