Issues With Paralegals & Staff

We're about to get disqualified on what should have been a slam-dunk case due to Liner Legal’s negligence. For months, SSI requested information, but Liner Legal failed to provide it on time—even though we’d submitted it to them well in advance. We had almost no communication over the last six months..., and what little there was was unhelpful and rushed. The paralegal Savanah even tried to take advantage of my fiancée disability & memory issues by claiming she had attempted communication, but had no call logs or emails or voicemuals left to us. When we consulted with other law firms, they were shocked by how poorly this case has been handled and even offered us guidance to continue without Liner Legal. It feels like they're just waiting to collect a payout without putting in the work. If nothing is conpleted by the law firm, we have already found another attorney to complete the filing of an official grievance to hold them accountable and to take over the case for trial post disqualification. But this is our life, my fiancé has not been able to work in a year due to his disability and we cannot wait another two years for a trial due to Liner Legal’s negligence.

Actually Cares, Accommodating, and Worth It

I got his number from a counselor, and was highly recommended. I have severe agoraphobia amongst other mental illnesses. He was understanding and went out of his way to make me comfortable throughout the process, and even came to my home so I didn't have to leave my house to speak with him. His staff... is also very understanding, caring, knowledgeable, and keeps you updated every step of the way. They are easy to contact, the majority of the times I called, someone actually answered the phone. The few times someone didn't, my calls were always promptly returned. He managed to get me approved in a matter of a few months. I was told it it could take way longer, even a year or more, nope. I didn't have to go to a courtroom, do the math on his fee, barley anything. All I had to do was sign some papers giving him access to my medical history, and he took care of the rest. I seriously can't recommend this man enough.

Change your opinion of lawyers...

Michael is professional, bright, funny, cordial, sympathetic in a real way, and knows the system. If you have dealt with Social Security, you know how bad it can be. If not, stop now and call Michael. It is a long arduous process, even with an attorney. With his help I won my SSDI case. I truly don't... believe I would have won without him. I had a good legitimate case, but not a cut and dry one. Even if I wouldn't have won, I feel that Michael was doing all that could be done to win it. He always answered my questions promptly and courteously, no matter how often or uninformed they were. He was always positive but not unrealistic with me, and was prepared to take this as far as it could go. He is not like any attorney I have ever dealt with. It was like dealing with friend. I signed up. No regrets.

If You Have A Difficult Disability Case, You Need Michael Liner

After finding Michael here, I hired him to help my disabled brother appeal the Social Security Administration's finding that he wasn't disabled, and it was one of the best decisions I've made. Michael lives up to all the 5 star ratings he's received here. When I met with Michael in person, I could te...ll immediately he takes each case seriously and provides his services for the right reasons. He gets straight to the point and doesn't waste your time or give you false expectations. My brother's disability is due to a complex illness that makes it hard to medically prove he's disabled, so I had my doubts that Michael and his staff would win the court case, but he proved my doubts wrong. I'm highly confident that just about any other attorney would have lost this case!
