Posted by Wade | October 12, 2021 | Hired Attorney | Social Security Disability

Great Experience!

I could not have asked for a better experience or a better team to work with! Deborah and her entire team were on top of everything! Not to mention how professional, caring, and understanding they were throughout the entire process. I had been fighting for social security disability benefits for ...over a year before I made contact with Hardin Law – I wish that I had reached out sooner. In the end, it was a difficult process, but Deb and Trish were able to help me get approved and obtain the year and a half of backpay that I was entitled to. They were there every step of the way! Even after the approval, they continued to check in and make sure that the payments were set up for me. They literally changed my life around and helped me get back on my feet – 5 Star! Take it from me, don’t go through the process alone, call The Hardin Law Firm.

Mrs. Hardin represented me in my case with Social Security disability. I was impressed with her knowledge of the system and her prompt responses to my questions. She and her staff were also very compassionate regarding my medial conditons. I would recommend her expertise in this area to anyone.

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.
