Attorney Andrews is excellent at winning disability cases, He has a stellar reputation for winning his cases. He won my husband's case and most recently my daughter's case, I highly recommend him to fight for you. If you want to get you case settled in your favor, call the expert attorney James... Foster Andrews.

Only a fool represents himself

SS has a 100 ways of saying no to disability. If you want to have the best chance of getting a yes, hire James Andrews. He will not baby you for months so don't expect a weekly or daily call from him. He has other cases. . You will see him twice. Once before your hearing and once at your hearing wi...th the judge. He has a mind like a stl trap and remembers everything about your case. Be sure to meet with him before the hearing to go over your case and Do Not Be Late for your hearing. Treat the judge with respect,, dress appropriately. Don't be afraid. The judge is not your enemy. I would never go to court without a true professional with years of experience. By the way, I won! . Finally got the yes and I owe it all to Mr. Andrews and his awesome staff.

The best

James Andrews met with me promptly regarding my case. At all times, I knew exactly what was happening in my case and what the next steps in the process were. Although my case was complex, Mr. Andrews read through my hundreds of pages of medical records and was able to succinctly and clearly expla...in my condition to the Administrative Law Judge and doctor who was on the phone and my appeal hearing. The way in which he described how my injury has negative affected my health and his technical summary of my medical records allowed my appeal to be successful. He even suggested what impairment I might have under the Social Security Administration rules as the judge and doctor on the phone were having difficulty in determining where I would fit in for a diagnosis under their rules. They accepted Mr. Andrew's suggestion. Additionally, Mr. Andrews was compassionate to me during this extremely stressful process. A Social Security disability appeal is not anything anyone wants to be forced to apply for, but Mr. Andrews makes it as easy as comfortable as it can be. All I can say is that if anyone reading this has an appeal, if you have a chance to win your case in the first place, Mr. Andrews will give you the best possible chance to win. I cannot say enough about this man.

Mr. Andrews was very professional in handling my disability case. He and his staff (Trang) were always available to answer questions and provide advice. He did an outstanding job of preparing me for my one and only hearing and I was granted 100% disability. I highly recommend Mr. Andrews as a disa...bility attorney.
