Mr. McGuire is the definition of a great Lawyer!

I hired Mr. McGuire after a bad experience with multiple disability lawyers. He took my Brain Injury case when no one else would. I was very impressed with his knowledge, experience as well as his patience in helping me through the disability process. Pete took the time to personally answer all of my... questions, never made me feel rushed or just like another client. He was very easy to talk to, straight forward and honest about everything and never made me feel like he was just about the money. When I showed up for the hearing, the lady who signed me in could tell I was nervous and her comment was “Oh Hun don’t worry, you’ve got Pete McGuire, he’s great!” She was exactly right. I would definitely recommend Pete McGuire to ANYONE that is looking for a great lawyer.

Confident and helpful

During this long process in my application for SSDI, my attorney was very responsive and reassuring. During my hearing he was very knowledgeable, helpful, confident and calming when I was so very nervous. I would definitely recommend Peter McGuire! Even the admin assistant at the front desk was very ...helpful as well.

I'm a very satisfied & relieved client.

I initially applied for disability w/a large national chain and then by myself, ultimately deciding I needed and wanted a local professional's help. After some research I set up and had an appointment w/ Peter Mcguire. From the minute I entered the office suite I was treated with respect by his staff... and him but NOT with a snotty, demeaning attitude that I feel many lawyers can project. I felt that Mr. Mr. Mcguire listened carefully & heard all of the details of my work history & subsequent inability to work. He was professional and thorough yet respectful and kind...and for what it was worth, that he truly cared about me as a person. It was hard enough to be in the awful situation I was in: wanting and needing to work but no longer physically able to do so, 61 years old & unemployed after 40-some years....yet he allowed me to maintain my dignity & self respect, as did his paralegals and receptionist. They initiated the necessary paperwork & filing immediately, and regularly kept me up to date regarding my case. It's kind of a drawn out waiting game but whenever I called his office I was talked to with patience and my questions answered completely....even toward the end of the procedure, when I nervously called his paralegal Meghan with my fears & tears, over & over! Two days before my hearing with the administrative judge Peter met with me, prepared me for what to expect & calmed my nerves. Of course he was by my side at the hearing, which was a relief, also (I'm obviously not a fan of lawyers, judges or courtrooms!) Mr. Mcguire's office is not in a fancy building but is easy to find with plenty of free parking. I didn't need a lawyer in a building with a marble lobby or fancy waiting room; I got what I needed: an efficient, professional, pleasant, intelligent and sharp lawyer (and his staff) to guide me through this unpleasant-yet-necessary process so I could receive the benefits I'd been paying in to since I was 16 years old. I would certainly recommend Peter to anyone needing an attorney of this type. He was accessible, seemed to know the rules of the game well, handled me with professional respect and kindness and was pleasant to be around. All together, these traits made this process as positive as it could have been, and I thank Peter (and his staff) for their efforts on my behalf!
