Took my money and missed the deadline on filing

I used these guys to appeal my dismissal. Representation was indifferent. The agency decision was sustained. I asked them to appeal it and they took my money and did not file anything. They didn't seem good in the original action and then engaged in flat out fraud in the second action.

Very satisfied with service received

I'm an attorney myself, so when it came to choosing an attorney to assist me with applying for disability retirement through the Federal Employees' Retirement System, I tried to do my homework and thoroughly research attorneys and law firms. I spoke with several, and ultimately felt the most comfort...able and confident with Mr. Wersing and his team, including Bethany Sissons, a paralegal. They did not disappoint! From thoroughly explaining the process to me, to giving me clear directives on what I needed to do to help prepare my claim paperwork (it's the government - there's tons of paperwork to gather and complete), to answering my questions, to keeping me informed about where things stood in the process, Mr. Wersing and his team did a great job, and my application was approved on the first try. I credit that in large part to the aforementioned paralegal, Bethany Sissons, staying on top of the development of my paperwork and making sure I had a complete and correct application. For anyone considering hiring someone to help you with the FERS disability process, the reality is that nobody can do the whole thing for you. There is a lot of back and forth with your agency and a lot of documentation that you, as the employee, have to help gather (even if you're just filling out medical record release forms to send records to the firm, rather than getting your own medical records and forwarding them yourself (which is faster)). But Mr. Wersing and Ms. Sissons broke down the tasks I needed to complete to help them help me into a clear, actionable plan, which, again made the process smooth and, most importantly, successful. Finally, I found the cost structure extremely fair and reasonable, given the value received.

FDA employee true account by VAChung

I had run through at least 20 different firms when trying to find representation for my federal case involving the FDA...and it was so disheartening I had to do this after 21 years of service to that agency at the time...to say it was exhausting and discouraging was an understatement. I found Aaron ...and his firm after three weeks of searching the internet and calling different firms, who charged ridiculous and outrageous amounts of money for representation...I had reached my wit's end before I found Aaron and his firm. I spoke to him and his staff and started the ball rolling for my case. They worked with me regarding fees and payment, went over the relevant issues, and looked at all scenarios to negotiate a settlement and help me to move from my area to get out from under that mgnt line...the mngt was pacified when they saw I hired this firm and for while they left me alone... I was shocked and surprised that they had attorneys who represented federal employees in their cases...Aaron kept it real and Andrew Young who was representing me at the time, also did. They provided expertise and possible outcomes and worked with me and tried their best to mediate and finally go to EEOC court regarding my issues...it was a long process and I had to keep my documentation in order and fight for myself as well as they, but I COULD NOT HAVE DONE THIS WITHOUT THEIR HELP...IT FELT LIKE I WAS FIGHTING FOR MY LIFE AND MY CAREER DEALING WITH THIS FEDERAL AGENCY AND ITS CORRUPT MANAGEMENT LINE...AND I COULD NOT HAVE DONE IT WITHOUT AARON AND ANDREW'S HELP...I am happier now as I have moved from the previous mngt line and their branch and Aaron and Andrew had negotiated a settlement agreement with the FDA for my restitution...but again I COULD NEVER HAVE DONE THIS WITHOUT THEIR HELP...fighting the govt is exhausting, disheartening, full of pitfalls and dishonest mgnt people and can make you question your life's purpose, but I am grateful to have found this firm and its attorneys...this is a true account and someday I will write a book about my struggles and those who helped me.

Terrible experience with firm

I hired this firm specifically to represent me in an informal EEO complaint which was closed due to my attorney (Jacquelyn Trevino) not showing up to the meeting with the EEO counselor and then ghosting us. I have paid $4500 for one 30 minute meeting. Mr. Wersing won’t return my money. If he responds... to this, I can predict he will say he can’t comment point by point due to attorney client privilege. He will also say he is available to talk to me but in fact he has not spoken with me or offered any resolution to this matter,

FERS DISABILITY

After being removed from the Postal Service after 30 + years, I reached out to numerous law firms specializing in Federal Employment Law. Aaron Wersing personally replied to my inquiry expediently and scheduled a free consultation. I found Aaron to be exceedingly knowledgeable, very personable and ge...nuinely empathetic to my situation. After agreeing to retain The Federal Employment Law Firm of Aaron Wersing for an extremely reasonable fee, Aaron and his incredible team took over. He and his team created a plan and course of action all the while exhibiting compassion for my cause and communicating with me throughout the judication of my case. Because of Aaron Wersing and his firm I attained a FERS DISABILITY RETIREMENT! God bless Aaron Wersing and his incredible law firm!
