Reliable and empathetic Lawyer

I started my case in 2020 and Robert LaPorte helped me hold out five years in the appeals process, even suing the department of social security for unfairly refusing to consider evidence given by their own doctor’s evaluation. He could have declared that it was not worth pursuing after the last roun...d of appeals. However, he pushed through and gave me every option with their pros and cons. He also gave advice on the likelihood of success and failure based on his experience with cases like mine and his knowledge of the judges we worked with.Of course with appropriate disclaimer he can’t say for sure. He didn’t sugar coat, but he delivered everything with deep empathy for my situation. I’m grateful that we kept going. We won and my quality of life has significantly improved. The government process was frustrating and depressing, but LaPorte gave me clear and easy to understand feedback on the process and helped me feel grounded. So that I knew what was happening and why. This information enabled me to make the most informed and best decision for me. I highly recommend Laporte law firm for professionalism, honest and clear communication, and for being a great listener.

You’re in good hands with Terry LaPorte

I had total confidence in Terry from the beginning, greatly reducing my stress level. My private plan disability attorney highly recommend Terry LaPorte for my SSI disability claim. He was great every step of the way. Things were thoroughly yet concisely explained to me from beginning to end. He ...assembled the forms and evidence. His office received directly from SSA, copies of all the forms I had to send in. They prompted me to do them otherwise I might have missed them in the mail. Then they sent the forms in for me. Handled everything. No mystery no worry. Just be sure you follow his instructions and don’t try to do things the way you think it should be done. He knows what he’s doing. I followed his advice including what to do and not do during the hearing. It went smoothly, only a few easy questions for me... and we WON!

THE BEST THERE IS IN HIS FIELD

Terry LaPorte and his team are the absolute definition of informed compassionate representation. His years of experience and well known ethic works within the system to the benefit of his clientele. A consummate professional with a top notch support staff, it just does not get any better. He can ...wade through the red tape and convoluted SSI Disability system like a hot knife through butter. I highly recommend the Law Offices of Terry LaPorte to anyone needing this type of representation. In my opinion, this is the ONLY choice in this field of practice.
