Diane C. Haar

When searching for a disability lawyer online, it is easy to be swept up into a giant mainland firm that may not always understand the unique landscape of Hawaii Veterans and residents. I was very pleased to see Diane C. Haar listed as an approved lawyer on Veterans Disability website. She knows the ...correct person to reach out to and how to get the job done. We are extremely grateful for her professional guidance. Diane C. Haar takes the time to listen with genuine compassion and concern. She provides prompt, personal attention and has proven to be an excellent lawyer. During the early onset of Covid she and her team responded with timely and useful legal advice. They have been an amazing source of information and advised us on programs that we did not even know existed. She successfully advised us on my daughter's military and SSDI disability claims.

I broke my wrist (shattered my Radius) back in April of 2018. Upon visiting the ER, it was inevitable that surgery was needed. I faced unexpected setbacks and surgery was done 13 days after the injury occurred. I had never broken a bone nor ever had surgery. This whole ordeal was a life changing even...t. Not only did I face healing from the surgery, I also faced healing emotionally and psychologically. I felt helpless not knowing what my future was looking like. I went through the procedures of filing for TDI...it was denied - I tried to file for Unemployment...I was denied - I filed for Social Security Disability...I was denied - I appealed...that was denied. My next thought was "I think I need an attorney". That's when I contacted Diane Haar's office to inquire if she might be able to help me. On my initial consultation with Diane, her office staff was welcoming and pleasant. Meeting with Diane was like talking with a friend! She is very professional and easy to talk with. Upon hiring her to help me with my Social Security Disability case, she and her staff would take care of any further communication with the SS Office. 22 months later, we were finally given a hearing date. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, my hearing took place over the phone. The outcome was a victory! I will be forever endeted to Diane and her Legal Assistants John, Taryn and Jahdiel. You folks are awesome...to whoever is in need of legal assistance regarding Social Security Disability, please don't hesitate to contact Hawaii Disability Legal Services, LLC - you could only regret not contacting them. Thank you again Diane, John, Taryn and Jahdiel!

I have nothing but praise for attorney Diane Haar. Diane and her staff appealed my initial disability denial and I was lucky to have a quick approval for my earned SSDI benefits. Diane and her staff always responded to my questions quickly and to follow up on communications from SSDI. I chose Diane ...Haar after seeing her impressive educational qualifications, that includes a Masters in Public Health, which I felt was a plus since she is dealing with medical issues. Our initial meeting was in Hilo since she travels on a regular basis from Oahu to the Big Island. Diane is a delightful person who made us feel comfortable discussing my conditions. I always felt that I was getting personal attention during the process

Attorney Diane Haar is a pleasant individual that had compassion for me from the first consultation and every visit there after. I felt truly blessed and at ease realizing that she has great knowledge in the social security disability laws and language I did not understand. I was never pressured. Dia...ne has won over 95 percent of her social security disability cases. What lingo I did not understand, Diane spoke for me. I highly recommend Diane Haar for anyone’s need.
