Best I could ask for

It took seven years to fight with Social Security against the most obstinate ALJ in the most negative region in the midwest. Josh would not quit. He came on board after my submission was first denied on my first hearing. He filed the appeal which was denied. He filed a lawsuit in Federal Court ...which we won and resulted in a second hearing where I was denied. He filed an appeal on the second denial and we won. This is the short version of the story. Throughout he never hesitated to return my calls and "hold my hand". Mr. Moore and his staff were always professional, proficient and pleasant. I cannot say enough good things about him. If you are fighting with SS hire Josh. He really cares and will really work for you.

Wonderful experience!

Working with Joshua Moore was a dream come true! He took our phone calls, gave us his personal cell phone number, and email. Joshua is a natural born “people person” and explained the legal system to us simply, and kept things easy to understand. He is very caring, and has a cheerful personality, ...which is very helpful when you are handling legal issues in your life. I recommend Joshua Moore to anyone in need of an attorney. He’s amazing.

Most caring compassionate Social Security lawyer

Joshua Moore and his entire staff were very professional and personable throughout my whole encounter from start to finish with Social Security. We had to take my case to Federal court and it took some time and a lot of hard work and I'm sure many hours for him to prepare and we won. While everyone d...oesn't get the same outcome I did I know they put everything they have into it. I would and have recommend Joshua Moore to my own family.

Yes he calls back but never calls you...

A yr and 5 months in federal court! I asked Joshua how long it would be he said a yr but to find out tht isnt the case! I had to call him after a yr and five months what was going on well I lost but never got a call from him or anyone else for that matter! When On the phone with him I said why didn'...t anyone call me he said " We just got it back and I was in Alabama" I'm thinking today a Friday I call and you just get it back and I lost but you was in Alabama! I think he never cared! When I went to court he sent a lady that didnt know my case and was so late they was going to call for a new court hearing! Very upset and learned that if you want to win don't get a lawyer who gets paid after you win!!!!

While it is very disappointing getting a decision back that you are unhappy with, our attorneys are the few that go to federal court. A lot of work and money goes into a federal court case by our attorneys. Also, we get no money if we do not win either. We go to federal court, because it's the right thing to do and while I understand your disappointment the review is simply not fair. We had only had your decision back for a couple days and I told you I wanted to review it before calling you as I was in Alabama. Also, you did win a partially favorable case. You were not in federal court for 5 years, it was under a year. I'm very sorry it was not successful.
