They made a stressful situation so much easier to navigate.

Facing the devastating news of a loved one being diagnosed with stage 4 cancer is overwhelming enough—and navigating the complexities of applying for SSI was the last thing I wanted to deal with. But it was necessary to ensure we could cover basic expenses.With special recognition to Mary, Kate, and ...Bridgette, the Cavanaugh Law Firm and staff, stepped in and took that burden off my shoulders completely, allowing me to focus on what truly mattered. They were always kind, honest, and incredibly informative throughout the process. Saying “thank you” doesn’t feel like enough. I’m beyond grateful for how they made an incredibly difficult situation feel manageable.

Client

Patrick Cavanaugh and his entire office took great care of my case. I highly recommend his firm! Years ago he also got my mothers disability. I do not know where my family would be without the hard working members of this office. I am forever thankful.

Cavanaugh Law Office helped me out so much.

I had my initial disability application turned down. I was advised to try Cavanaugh Law Office with my appeal. His team told me what to do and what to expect. I got nothing but the best of service from them at any time and any day. Patrick and his staff always let my voice be known. If I had any ques...tions they were more than willing to answer them.

I can't say anything but that Cavanaugh Law Firm provided exceptional service, they were quick to get me started with the paper work required, they answered all my questions quickly and made sure I understood everything from start to finish. The representive they assigned to me was very knowledgeabl...e and concerned about getting things done right the first time. I can't and won't say anything bad about others who provide this service for Social Security Disabilty, but I will say that when asked who I would send anyone to it would be Cavanaugh Law.

A wonderful experience

They did a wonderful job with my case. Cavanaugh was honest and upfront about my chances, but despite the odds still went ahead with my case. As a younger individual my odds of getting my disability was slim, but they managed to work with me and even managed to get my disability through. I was very h...appy with their services, integrity, honesty, and openness. There was no BSing me into believing my case was going to be a piece of cake, instead I got the truth and they worked hard & diligently to win my case. Thank you again for everything you did for me.

  • 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.
