Disability

I hired James Greeman at the end of my disability process to represent me in appeals court as it was my last opportunity to win my case. He swiftly took over from there and after a year battling on my own, he won my case in 20 minutes in court. Any time I had questions or needed to get a hold of him,... he answered promptly and professionally. James’ staff is equally great and they removed all of the stress of gathering any necessary medical records or legal forms. Hiring James not only comes with an A+ lawyer but also an A+ law firm behind him.

Approved Upon Hiring Greeman Toomey

I like to take this opportunity to personally thank Greeman Toomey PLLC and each individual law representative who worked on my case over these last 2 years which consisted of James Greeman, Ryan Miner, Natalie Melcher and all those behind the scenes that came together for the greater good to get an ...approval for me after all my previous attempts at getting approved on my own were unsuccessful.  When I first begin my journey i applied for SSI/SSDI on my own and I was subsequently denied twice before ultimately discovering that dealing with the Social Security Administration was much more complicated than I originally thought. Along the journey of my denials I learned that filing for SSI/SSDI benefits because I had a qualified disability that limited my ability to work and being approved for SSI/SSDI were two different barriers and applicants must navigate both parameters.  In theory, having a qualified disability that limited my ability to work should suffice however it takes an experienced Attorney to apply Law to each factor. After my 2nd denial I said to myself if I wanted to have the best chance at winning my case or any future endeavor with SSA I would need a strong legal team to help navigate the complicated and rigorous bureaucracy of SSA. The SSA is a Federal Agency and have great Attorneys and Medical Staff and I needed to be equally prepared otherwise I would continue being denied. Greeman Toomey removed each barrier the moment their law office took my case and rallied behind me. I couldn’t have done it without them. Thanks to Greeman Toomey, I received a Full Favorable decision by the Law Judge thanks to my legal team for fighting for my rights, taking a stand for me and presenting my case with the correct legal terms and findings of facts.  I recommend you hire Greeman Toomey if you are applying for Social Security benefits. Not only will they vigorously fight for you they will maintain a stress free environment for you. You just sign paperwork and they will do the rest. They want you to focus on your health and medical treatment moving forward.
