Fully Favorable

After loosing my disability case with an attorney who told me "you're 59 just wait til your 62 and collect SS." That was the response my former attorney gave me after we lost.. I fired him and Hired Anna Schiffman of Schiffman Law.. From the very first contact I knew I was in good hands, because th...ey took the time to listen to me.. And it wasn't a staff associate that spoke with me, it was the actual attorney herself.. She took the time to really understand my case. I wasn't treated like a case file in some large firm.. It was personal.. Anna kept me up to date every step of the way, I was never wondering what was going on. After being in the system for 5 years Anna and her team led me to a successful fully favorable decision.. Not only did she get me a fully favorable decision, she was able to reopen the previous denial so I am getting back pay from my first application.. This team of professionals know what they are doing, and really do care about you and your case.. I would recommend them to anyone who is looking for a disability attorney. Regards, Rosemary

Peace of Mind is Priceless

Anna Schiffman gave me peace of mind which was priceless. I had been working in the semiconductor industry since 1978. Once my condition rendered me unable to efficiently complete my daily tasks, I was so stressed. After my very first meeting with Anna, my stress level decreased significantly. She wa...s so knowledgable and understanding of my situation. Anna was very professional and she and her team kept me informed every step of the way. They were always available to answer my questions and address my concerns. Anna made this process worry free for me. She made no guarantees, however I knew she would fight for my rights if my case came to that. Thank you Anna!

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!

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!

Veteran friendly, honest and straight forward

As a young disabled combat Veteran you get turned away many times. Anna Schiffman and her team went above and beyond. They always kept me informed and looked past my disabilities and age. They took my case and within months I was approved and found fully favorable without stepping in a court room. Th...eir dedication to their client is astonishing. Anna was always keeping me informed and a call away. Email communication was also great! It is very unlikely to have an Attorney be hands on and engaged with their client but she goes out of her way to reach out with her busy schedule. I cannot thank her enough for everything she did for me. I provided everything they asked for and they kept sending it forward. She is a great attorney who truly cares for their client. Thank you Anna! From Jay and Kiera (Service Dog)

"I have had the pleasure of working with Anna for the past six years. She is meticulous about her cases and her knowledge of the SSA regulations is outstanding. Most importantly, she is compassionate and caring with her clients."

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."
