Posted by Mary Ann | November 03, 2014 | Social Security Disability

Excellent Lawyer for SSI and Disability

Scott was a great help to me with my SSI Disability case. He helped me with all the forms and paperwork needed to apply for disability and was by my side during the court hearings. He helped me acquire all the medical and background information I needed also. He was very courteous and always answer...ed any questions I had. He was very prompt and always returned my phone calls. His assistant was also very knowledgeable. He kept me informed every step of the way. Scott is a very caring person who always took time to listen to my problems even if it was not about my case. I would highly recommend him.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
