Your search is over!

If you’re reading this, I’m sure you know how difficult, infuriating, and disheartening the process of applying for SSDI can be. I was 3 years into the arduous procedure, when I met Will. From the first minute I spoke with Will, he put me at ease, gently asking me about the specifics of my co...ndition, how it affected me, and a few more questions about myself. It didn’t take him long, and within ten minutes he told me he wanted to take my case. I was curious at this point, because so many others had flatly turned me down and Will (who already had so many glowing reviews) seemed eager to add me as a client. I candidly asked him, “Why do you want to take my case?” He told me that his process is about working with people that he not only genuinely believes and believes in, but people he feels he can help and would enjoy working with. At this point I’m not embarrassed to say that I completely lost it. I broke down over the phone with tears of relief, and Will listened to my many incoherent thanks and laughed with compassion, telling me that everything was going to be okay. And I believed him, as one of the first things that came across when I spoke to Will, was his complete sincerity. Will really cares about his clients, and he made it immediately clear that his primary goal is to improve his clients’ lives for the better. When I made it down to his nice and professional office, it became even clearer that this was a great match. Will is very honest, and due to my younger age and the somewhat difficult nature of my disability, he said it was a case he was confident could be won, but it would take some hard work. I was sold. Will is affable, intelligent, and always in your corner. If you need time to ask questions, he will stay late in a meeting and make sure that every one of your questions is answered and will put your mind at ease. During all our meetings, he was cool, collected, and extremely impressive in the way he worked with the complicated details of my case. As the court date neared, I had a lot of confidence and felt positive that we could win. When the day arrived and I got to court, one of the clerks said something that I’ll never forget. I was there early and while waiting, she casually asked me who my lawyer was. When I told her I was waiting for William Viner, she smiled and said, “Oh, you mean Clark Kent.” She hit it on the nose. Not only does he look a little like Clark Kent, but also in the courtroom he was a full on Superman in a suit. He did an amazing job presenting my difficult case to the judge and made what had been a terrifying and frustrating process, look simple. I swear to you, this guy is a superhero, or at the very least mine. Because of his hard work, and dynamo performance in the courtroom, we got a fully favorable decision. If you’re reading this right now, I can assuredly tell you, that your search is over. Stop looking for anyone else, change firms if you’re not happy with your current one, and call William Viner immediately. He will put your mind at rest, because you’ll know that you’ll have the best lawyer you could hope for, working day and night on your case. He will make you feel like his only client, and again I will come back to his pervasive sincerity that I mentioned earlier. It isn’t about the money or the settlement or the hard math that you’ll hear about from other disability lawyers. It’s different with Will. William Viner wants to win of course, but first and foremost he wants to win to make your life better and improve your future. He has changed my life for the better and I sleep more soundly now because of it. Making that call to his office is one of the best decisions I’ve made in my life. I recommend you do the same.

Great Attorney

Will worked on my case for over two years. He is tenacious is defending his clients. On my first go around I was denied at the ALJ level and the Appeals Council would not reverse. Will stuck with me and kept me in the loop and explained things so that I would understand them. Will recommended we ...file another claim and this time we were successful at the initial stage. Will is compassionate and understands the strain and anxiety this process has on his client. He is very knowledgeable of the law and keeps you abreast every step of the way. I would highly recommend his skills to anyone looking for an attorney that works with integrity and always keeps his client's best interest in mind.

Excellent communication and work

My husband is a very young but significantly disabled veteran. Attorney Viner took his case to help us get social security disability. At the very onset, he laid out the path we might have to take and that due to his age, we may end up having to take the case all the way into federal court. We never ...at any point felt blind walking into this battle. He walked us through every step and every challenge. At one point social security sent us a denial letter before we had even gotten our compensation exam; Atty Viner straightened the mess out with ease. I'm pleased to say that this last month, we successfully won our case for SSD. Even after the case, Atty Viner reached out to check on us and has made it well known that we could always reach out with any questions. He and his staff were always courteous and were extremely prompt in communications. Although I wouldn't wish the situation on anyone, I would use Viner Law again without hesitation.

Truly Sincere.....hard quality to find.

After wasting 2 years with another Denver firm; almost amusing that that firm's initial are BS. I chose to use the Viner Law Firm to represent my disability case Unfortunately, Mr. Viner could not take my case, but he was kind enough to give me some advice as to what would be the direction he woul...d go if he was able to take the case. I wish I had chosen Mr. Viner from the start and I believe I would have had a competent, compassionate & tenacious attorney to represent me. I feel even more confident going to court without legal representation because of our 15 minutes on the phone. Will Viner is a stand-up guy & I would enthusiastically recommend his services to anyone.

Successful at getting benefits fast

Will Viner has a very high degree of professionalism and a proven record of success. He is intelligent and has a deep understanding of disability law. Will proved to be a great advocate and a real asset to have on my side. He took time to listen and understand my situation, and was able to break dow...n the complexities and explain it to me in terms I could understand. He was always available and great at keeping me informed. He made my goals his own, and was with me every step of the way. He truly cares about getting you your benefits. and was able to provide expert assistance through a difficult process. I would highly recommend Viner Disability Law.
