FERS Disability

Aaron Wersing and Bethany Sissons are absolutely amazing! When I was released from my position with the Department of the Army due to disability the office of Aaron Wersing and his team were there every step of a very long process dealing with the Government. I highly recommend Aaron Wersing and his ...team, they are very caring and professional, could not ask for a better outcome. Definitely would hire them again in the future when needed.

I made a poor choice.

I hired Wersing because of his FERS experience. I paid a $5000.00 Retainer. Next, he could not understand my case and charged me to explain it to him. After that, he charged me to prepare Interrogatories and never filed a Motion to Compel after OPM ignored them. So I was charged for negligence. ...Then I get an email from another attorney claiming Wersing transferred my case to her. I terminated Wersing and only got back $1,370.00 of my $5000.00 Retainer.

A lawyer’s duty to keep client confidences has few exceptions and as such I do not feel at liberty to respond in a point-by-point fashion in this forum. Suffice it to say that this post does not present a fair and accurate picture of the events.

Respectful, polite, unfortunately, the end was disappointing

Atty. Wersing's firm accepted my case when nobody did. His firm is polite, considerate, and respectful. For that, I am very thankful. And I am giving the firm a 5-star rating. However, every employee who seeks representation had high hopes for a better ending to their cases. I walked away from a job ...due to a disability, ended up with an empty pocket, and paid a hefty Atty's fee.

Great Representation for a OPM Disability Retirement Claim!

My husband was let go from a federal job due to mental health issues connected with his previous military service in Iraq. I was in a panic when I Googled federal employment law attorneys and Aaron's law firm came up as the first search result. I arranged a consultation with Aaron for my husband ...and we were greatly pleased with Aaron's initial assessment that my husband could file for a disability claim from OPM! Aaron's law firm guided us through the initial steps in creating the package for the claim. We spent several months working with Aaron and his associates Scott and Shani to build the required evidence to support my husband's claim. We filed the claim in May of 2022 and it was approved in early August of 2022! I am a member of an OPM disability retirement page on Facebook: the same day that we received the letter in the mail telling us that my husband had been approved, several people on the page reported their claims as denied. I was pretty worried that day until my husband opened the letter. Aaron's firm provides great service and does an amazing job of getting OPM disability packages together! Definitely hire this firm for all of your federal employment law needs!

Awful. Lost OPM case as he couldnt be bothered to verify the basis of his case

Hiring Aaron was the biggest waste of money and I lost my OPM case as he couldnt be bothered to check and see if his main argument, that i had a common law marriage in the state of Virginia, was truthful. Turns out there is no common law marriage in Virginia. He put a first year associate with no exp...erience in fed benefist then charged for both of their times. A total waste of time and money. I am filing a complaint with the bar. Lawyers have an oblligation to their clients that they are filing the arguments the are in line with the law they argue. All of his research charges are now in question. Save yourself the potential for malpractice and go somewhere where they wont implode your entire case

A lawyer’s duty to keep client confidences has few exceptions and in an abundance of caution I do not feel at liberty to respond in a point by point fashion in this forum. Suffice it to say that this post does not present a fair and accurate picture of the events in any way, nor does the statement represent the values upon which this firm was built. Further, our firm does not employ first year associates nor attorneys without experience. As previously stated, I remain available to discuss your concerns at any time.
