Didn't give up

I am so greatful for the Greeman & Toomey team. I started my SSDI fight in 2016. I was ready to give up after 8 years of fighting. They had letters from my doctors, done many appeals, took my case to the federal level, then a remanded hearing. Mr. James Greeman encouraged me to keep fighting. Fi...nally in May 2025 we got a fully favorable decision. I am so glad he and his team stood by and supported me through the long and difficult process. His legal assistant, Kelci is great! She is easy to work with and always responds quickly to calls and emails. It was a long journey, but they stood by and guided me the whole time.

Great lawyer that fights for your rights.

I hired Mr. Greeman to fight for me to receive Social Security benefits. I had been denied for over fifteen years and was tired of the runaround and repeated denials. Mr. Greeman and his associates guided me through the entire case from beginning to end. It took over two years to get the final decisi...on, which was in my favor—and I won my case! I couldn't be happier with Mr. Greeman and his team, who helped me finally receive the benefits I deserved. They were very friendly and always happy to help with any and all of my questions and concerns throughout the process. I highly recommend Mr. Greeman—you won’t be disappointed if you need someone to fight for your rights.

Believed in me when I barely believed in myself

I felt helpless after being rejected after two appeals for my disability claim. I contacted James Greeman and worked with his secretary, Alicia, and they helped me build my case. They advised me on forms and recommendations from doctors, as well as evaluations that I’d never consider. They respond...ed to any questions I had promptly and were professional throughout, up to and including my hearing date. Thanks to their counsel and guidance, I ended up winning my disability hearing, and James Greeman is working to adjust my onset date to based on evidence and testimony to help me get the most out of my case. I owe Mr. Greeman all of my gratitude for helping me realize that just because I’m wired differently, it doesn’t mean that I’m less worthy.

Granted full SSDI!!!

After trying to handle my SSD paperwork on my own and with a SSD company, being denied twice, I hired Greeman Toomey PLLC. They did a wonderful job handling my case. The legal staff took my intake information, gathered all my medical records (which there were years of records), and continually contac...ted me for and with updates. James Greeman reviewed all of my information and submitted an appeal. For the hearing, James Greeman patiently helped me prepare, and there were things that were brought up that were very personal to me. James Greeman walked me through the process and helped me prepare on how to speak to the judge. James Greeman is a very knowledgeable, experienced, and professional lawyer. After The judge fully granted me SSDI, James Greeman called me to let me know what would happen next. He stated that with any legal matter to always contact a lawyer immediately and when I receive my back pay I should hire a lawyer as the long-term disability company may state that I owe them money. James Greeman also made sure that he answered all my questions. I now feel like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders and that I finally can live my life. I would highly recommend James Greeman to anyone that is going through the process of SSDI.

Amazing

I initially wasnt accepted as a client by a local attorney and I came across James Greeman online when searching for help. I sent an email and im so glad they responded and represented me for my disability case because i won my case. James Greeman did an amazing job pointing out the facts of my injur...ies over the years causing my inability to do my job anymore. Everyone was so nice in the office and I appreciate everything they all did for me. I highly recommend Greeman and Toomey, they are well worth it!
