Edward C. Ahlers

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.

Mr. Ahlers is one of the nicest people we have met in a long time. He helped my husband with a disability appeal and he made the whole process so easy. And the kind things he said about my husband to the SSA were heart-warming and sincere. I'm pretty sure that's what changed their minds. From the tim...e we walked into the office, we were treated with respect and interest. We had feared that our case wouldn't even be considered by such a large law firm but that was not the case. Ed sat with us for an hour and went over every aspect of our case until I felt like he really knew us. The appeal process can be long and stressful but such was not the case with us. Ed Ahlers and his staff made it seamless and stress free. If you need a good appeals lawyer, contact this firm and this lawyer in particular. You won't be sorry. Thank you, Ed, from the bottom of our hearts.

Edward successfully represented my interests in a case of suspension of Long Term Disability benefits by a private insurance company. At our first meeting Ed listened intently and took several pages of notes to understand the facts and my concerns. My appeal was by no means a sure thing, but Ed saw t...he potential for a settlement and agreed to move forward. After that meeting he promptly contacted the insurance company, established a point of contact and worked with them to set dates for the submission of supporting documents. Throughout the process I was kept informed by letter, email and verbal communications. He was always prompt to respond to my queries. Ed was very thorough. To support the appeal, he prepared insightful questionnaires which he asked my doctors to complete. He also employed the services of a vocational expert who completed a vocational assessment and report. I would highly recommend Mr. Edward Ahlers in cases of claims for disability. He is knowledgeable, experienced, professional, thorough and personable. I would recommend him to my family and friends.
