Hands down the best decision I made!

Overall, Anna Schiffman was great. She was able to take the scattered mess of paperwork that I had in many different grocery bags (the paperwork I managed to get to her) and make something of it. Some of it was printed, scanned, from a picture on my phone, mixed in with old medical bills from the las...t decade of my issues. Anna was quick to respond to any messages or calls of mine in detail or have someone else respond right away if she was not available to do so herself. Hiring her and her law firm was hands down the best decision I made during this entire process. The stress and weight it took off of my shoulders alone was well worth everything. If I had to do it all over again, the only thing I'd do differently is hire her from the get-go instead of waiting until I was denied the first time around.

Very Professional and Prompt Responses

Anna and Leslie were both very professional, organized, always provided prompt responses by email and detailed answers to our many questions. Anna was always very patient and understanding with my husband and his disabilities. We are extremely pleased with the outcome. I would give Anna and her team ...10 stars if I could!

Top Notch Lawyer, Excellent Character...Awesome!

I hired Anna and her team at Schiffman Law Office for my social security disability case and I could not have been happier with that decision. Anna was extremely knowledgeable, kind, ethical, and professional--really everything I could have asked for. I felt she presented my case very well before t...he judge and I could tell she had the respect of the judge as well. Throughout the process, she and her team went above and beyond in providing information for me to make informed decisions about my case. I was especially appreciative too in that for a disability process that can be stressful at times, she always had a gentleness about her that put me at ease from the start. I would eagerly recommend her to anyone needing a lawyer in her areas of law.

Applying for disability after being denied

After researching for a disability lawyer, I found Anna Schiffman had excellent reviews. It was after careful consideration, I made the decision to hire Ms Anna Schiffman to represent me. Our initial consultation was on time and went smoothly. I felt very comfortable and confident that she could re...present my case. I was continually updated as to the progress of my case and I was well informed with every step in the process. I received returned calling in a timely fashion. I am grateful to say that after a relatively short period of time of less than four months I was notified of a favor outcome of my SSDI. In closing, I honesty would like to extend my sincere gratitude and highly recommend her service.

Social Security...Amazing lawyer!

This review is long overdue and Anna deserves more than just a review. I just love Anna! As well as her paralegal Leslie, as both were involved with helping me. I was going through so much when I first met with Anna but she was incredibly calming and understanding. I was so sick throughou...t the entire process of applying for Social Security. Half the time I was either in the hospital or having seizures and couldn't speak. Im sure it had to be challenging for Anna and her team. They were trying to help me get all the necessary information in, meet the deadlines, and do their job to carry out and complete the process. I think any other lawyer or firm would have given up. Anna was persistent, patient, understanding and just kept working until it was done and I was approved. Without her and her team, I would not have been able to do it. Anna is smart, a fighter and she doesn't give up. The best kind. So grateful. Thank you!

Social Security & Disability lawyer | Oct 17

Relationship: Co-worker

"Anna has vigorously and successfully fought for her clients before the Social Security Administration and in federal court for more than 10 years now. She knows how important these benefits are to the women and men she represents. She doesn't give up just because the fight may be difficult. When she believes that there is a basis to pursue her client's matter to federal court, she fights for her client with a strong foundation of knowing the law and how the law applies to her client's matter. Unlike many lawyers who don't appeal matters for their clients to federal court, she is always willing to fight the battle when she believes an injustice has been done. I am very proud of her."
