Edward C. Ahlers

Mr.Ahlers made meeting with him simple and comfortable, listened with a trained ear to make a plan to pursue my Social Security benefits. He was able to involve my doctors as well as a vocational expert to provide information that won my benefits to provide security for my family and me. Mr. Ahle...rs was very responsive to questions along the way, explaining his plans and confirming my understanding. He did all of this during a pandemic! I'm proud to recommend Mr. Ahlers to anyone in need of his service.

Ed Ahlers was a wonderful calming and steady force behind our Social Security Disability journey which he garnered us an approval for my daughter. I knew if he was willing to take our case we weren’t crazy. We knew it would be difficult, tedious and time intensive but Ed took the lead, told us all we... needed to know in a timely manner as well as knew exactly when and how to stay on our radar with important deadline reminders. He wasn’t encouraging rather realistic which forced us always keep our expectations low as we went along. He filed everything, kept great notes and worked on a clear strategy that was the winning thing to do. From the very first random phone conversation over a year ago to explain my daughter’s situation, to today picking up a giant box of paperwork from her closed file, I am so grateful I took the chance to seek out Ed. He has seen a lot. He knows the system, the players and puts that knowledge into action for what we all hope for which is a successful outcome. My daughter’s case was denied twice and went to a live hearing with a very tough judge and a month later the decision was an approval. Barbara his assistant has his back and they work so beautifully together to insure the best communication and follow up for the clients. I HIGHLY recommend Ed Ahlers and his team. If you are stuck and worried about the daunting task for yourself or someone you are assisting and you get the opportunity to have Ed’s energy and time, you are getting the very best.

My particular reason for using Ed Ahlers was for a Social Security Disability claim. I will start by saying that Ed is strides above any professional that I have worked with. From my first phone call with Ed, he was so impressive for not only his knowledge of the process but how much he truly cared. ...I don’t think the man ever stops working! A good bit of my communication was email and it seemed that no matter when I emailed him, he responded. I did not have to call him or email him twice, he always was back to me very quickly and many times with extreme detail. From my first initial call with Ed he made me feel like a babe in mama’s arms. I knew that I made the right decision going with Ed to represent me. He was so detailed, so precise in the information sent to the hearing judge that the judge made the ‘YES” decision the day before the hearing, so the hearing was not needed and canceled. I truly feel that Ed went above and beyond for me and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking to go through the Social Security Disability process.

We were referred to Edward C Ahlers from our family estate attorney. My wife's disability case involved a form of Epilepsy that is near impossible to control. After being denied on our own twice for disability coverage, we went and met with Ed. Ed was very up front that our situation was very hard t...o prove, but he was willing to take on our case. He stated he would appeal a case and if the situation required and he felt it was necessary, he could and would sue Social Security to get my wife the results he felt she was due. This was thye fighting pit bull we wanted on our side. After being again denied with the help of Ed Ahlers, we appealed the case. We won on appeal. After 4 1/2 years from start to finish, my wife is finally enjoying the benefits of Ed's hard work , happy with her monthly benefit, and Medicare coverage. Not to mention the 5 1/2 years worth of back pay that allowed us to pull ourselves out of near bankruptcy. I am forever thankful we were referred to such a competent and hard working attorney.

I am so grateful to have found Mr. Ahlers to represent me in my SSDI case. I can say with a high degree of certainty that my case would not have been approved if not for him. My case was not without difficulty and definitely had its challenges, but Mr. Ahlers consistently worked tirelessly and remain...ed driven to meet all of those challenges head on. I found him to be very honest, thorough, organized, meticulous and committed while being caring and compassionate at the same time. He always kept me informed and often allayed my anxiety and fears about the process. I will forever be grateful to him for all he has done and how hard he worked for me and would highly recommend him to anyone that needs representation.
