Hard working and relentless.

Stephanie and her team brought my VA disability pay from 0% to 60% then to 100% P&T with a stunning 6 figure back pay. They were always there to answer my questions and kept me informed every step of the way. I cannot imagine a better law firm to have on your side. Great job all!

Won my appeal

Berry Law came to assist when no one else would. Most lawyers I've called wouldn't take my case, but Stephanie and her team did. I've been denied a claim for mental health from the VA over the past year with no service connection. Stephanie was immensely helpful in packaging all the evidence I've sh...own, along with detailed arguments that got me to a second C&P exam, which led to me getting the rating I deserve. I definitely recommend Stephanie and Berry Law to assist you when all seems lost. They are very professional and will be looking to them for more help in the future. Communication was prompt, and I didn't feel like there were periods of time where I had to contact them to follow up on anything. Melissa and Marquetta were very helpful in guiding me along the way with the case.

She did it !

I would like to start off by saying thank you for all your hard work, and helping me achieve 100%. I appreciate all of your hard work and dedication to my case. I will continue to recommend you !

Stephanie Walks the Walk in the world of VA Law!!!

I’m not really sure how to start this letter but to offer a very humble thank you to Stephanie!!! I remember not more than a couple years ago I contacted her. Once Berry Law accepted me as a client, Stephanie got right to work and within a fairly short amount of time, I went from 40 to 70 to 90 and ...recently was granted 100% VA Disability. She stopped at nothing! She didn't let the VA push me around and devalue me. She never let up and always kept me in the loop and share documents she sent to the VA. I can't laud her enough and she helped me when I was at the end of my rope and couldn't go at it alone any longer. Thank you for all you do, Stephanie, and every day you do it!!!!

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.
