Posted by Lloyd | August 11, 2022 | Hired Attorney | Social Security Disability

Terrific Lawyer!

I hired Ms. Danish to help me deal with two disability claims, one with Northwestern Mutual and one with UNUM. Ms. Danish handled both claims in an expert fashion and I can honestly say you will not find a better disability lawyer. Not only that, she has continued to stand by me and work with me over... the last couple of years handling all the followup required. If you are looking for a disability attorney, look no further. This is the lawyer you want. I'd give her ten stars if I could.

I was referred to Jennifer from my Workman comp attorney he told me, she was the best so I believed him, it was stress free, but going up against the government, things take time, imagine that.she was always there when I had questions. Don't do it alone hire Jennifer

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.
