Best decision

Chris Rabideau helped me so much throughout my disability claim, I always felt prepared and comfortable especially during my trial. I have a rare disease which is pretty complicated & has many many layers. He kept me updated and was on top of all of my medical records & paperwork making the process l...ess stressful for me. I highly recommend him!!

Review of Christopher J. Rabideau

I hired Chris to help me get disability benefits. It's a long, arduous and often confusing process, and Chris was there for me every step of the way. I had a lot of questions. Chris always returned my call the same day I contacted him. He was always patient with me and clear in his answers. He was mi...ndful of my disabilities and went out of his way to accommodate them and meet my special needs during our interactions. There is a lot of paperwork involved in applying for disability benefits. It can be overwhelming. Chris receives copies of the same forms his clients must fill out for eligibility for these benefits. He always sent me an additional copy of these forms in a timely manner with precise directions as to how to fill them out properly. Again, if I had further questions he was prompt in contacting me and addressing my concerns. I have nothing negative to say about Chris personally or professionally. I want to add that Chris' secretary, Lisa, is also wonderful. She's kind, respectful, and knowledgeable. She often was able to answer my questions immediately without having to consult with Chris first, a definite plus. They make a great team. I have no reservations about retaining Christopher Rabideau's services. None.

Great social security benefits lawyer

Chris was the there for me through the entire process of applying for social security benefits to where we went to court and won. Chris and his staff are very professional and knowledgeable with any questions I had during the process.

Not your typical lawyer

I first heard about Christopher through a friend who recommended him. I was in need of counsel on a workman's comp case and then social security disability representation. I had a very challenging case and Christopher took the time to talk with my husband and I regarding our approach and what was bes...t for me. He even found me representation in the state that my accident occurred, without any hesitation. Christopher wanted the BEST outcome for me, medically, financial & with professional representation. Christopher and his staff always treated me with dignity and respect. My case has lasted for several years but never was I concerned about the end results with Christopher's knowledge, experience and personal attention to details. I've always heard horror stories regarding lawyers & the judicial system. I can't speak about the the judicial system, but I can speak personally that Christopher has brought me peace of mind, great representation, and feeling satisfactory about the social security disability hearing that I had. I highly recommend Christopher and McCroskey law firm for any workman comp related issues and social security disability. I've never had to use a lawyer before. I've always heard horror stories regarding lawyers. And I have to say that none of them are true when working with or knowing Christopher Rabideau.
