Andrew Kenneth Shaffer

I am so happy I hired this attorney. I have a brain tumor and was in dire need of a great attorney. He did not disappoint me. I was denied once from the Social Security ministration. This attorney was very helpful and detailed in every step of the way and with my shock I received my Social Security a...dministration award letter soon after hiring this attorney. He also explained to me afterwards who do you go to and talk with if I had any difficulties with the Social Security ministration. This office and this attorney went above and beyond to help me. Anyone that has a new case or an old case will never go wrong in hiring this attorney.

I highly recommend Mr. Andrew K. Shaffer, co-founder and partner in the Law Office Of Borah & Shaffer for your legal workman's compensation and social security disability needs. It is rare that I take the time to acknowledge services that are provided to a client, but Andrew is a very rare... breed when it comes to attorney's who exhibit the highest degree possible of knowledge, professionalism, courage, and a laser-like focus on doing what is best for his clients. I stumbled upon Andrew via an internet search in 2016 after I had spent several months on my own trying to navigate the federal government's social security disability system. After a few months it became apparent that the federal government is not interested in facilitaing the filing of a disability claim. There are obstacles put in one's path at every turn, and something like 99% of all applications are denied after the first submission and even first appeal. The best decision I made was hiring Andrew who guided me through the process every step of the way always looking out for my interests. Andrew will not take your case unless he is confident his client will be approved and after hearing my case he determined that he could help me obtain a fully favorable decision. Andrew stayed in touch, answered all my emails promptly and professionally, and guided me through a process that no-one likes and that everyone admits is stacked against the applicant in so many areas. Almost 2 years after my initial application, Andrew was able to help me obtain a fully favorable decision from the administrative law judge who heard my case. I never would have been able to navigate the process and obtain a verdict like I did without Andrew's help, guidance, and advocacy. If you are disabled and can't work and are considering filing for social security disability benefits, I strongly encourage you to contact Andrew. He will honestly advise you if he can help you, and he will also tell you if he can't. If he does tell you he can help you, believe him! He is a joy to work with and he clearly excels at and is passionate about his work, about continued learning in this ever-changing landscape, and, most importantly, taking care of his clients and ensuring they get the best possible care and outcome. I give my strongest endorsement possible to attorney Andrew K. Shaffer, and would not hesitate to recommend him to a member of my family, a close friend, or ANYONE unable to work because of a disability. Andrew also has a successful workman's compensation practice as well, and I know he can provide excellent services in that area should you need him. Thanks Andrew for everything !

I was so blessed when Andrew Shaffer took my case and I would recommend him to anyone and everyone as I have and always will! I was physically in horrific pain and emotionally exhausted then to be denied twice by social security, I felt hopeless with not knowing who to turn to or who to trust to help... me. I am very thankful that a good friend of my family referred me to Andrew Shaffer and even though he was in Cupertino and I live in Sacramento, he still met with me. Upon explaining my complicated case to him, I could see that he genuinely cared. He took my case with knowing he would need to drive all the way to Sacramento (over 2 1/2 hours) for the hearing, in which he did and of course he WON my case! He is a very honest, knowledgeable and professional person. He will always give honest opinions, he does not sugar coat things or make promises that he can not be sure of. I always received an immediate response to my phone calls or emails. I had even emailed him about another situation even after he won my case and I still received an immediate response from him. When I recommend him to others, I always let them know how very knowledgeable he is and he takes the stress off of you with you feeling confident and worry free because he takes care of everything right away, as if you were his only client but you will NEVER feel like a simple client to him!!!
