best attorney for SSDI problems

I had a difficult case with SSDI and Nick and his office downloaded my papers in their computer. Nick kept in touch and even contacted them for me to make an interview so that was a real help. I will recommend him for any person having issue with SSDI no case is too small for him

My case started out seemingly well, but by the end of it Mr. Cordes was more on board and in bed with my employer and he was me. He never explained anything, I was at a loss most of the time. He had me sign a document unbeknownst to me that would give away my rights to a settlement.

No case too small.

I went into my worker's comp claim completely and utterly unprepared for the fight ahead. To me it seemed like an open and shut case. Why would I ever need a lawyer? A few frazzled days and it became painfully clear I would need help. Nick was referred by my union. Side note: I had contacted other la...w firms and either got the bush off or no response at all, likely due to the modest nature of my claim. Nick was thorough and generous with his time and explained the system and choices ahead. He is very approachable and casual. I was impressed with his tenacity and confident he would fight for me even though it was a small case. With his help I won my claim, retained my job and was able to take the necessary time to heal.

Happily Stunned

I too had a very difficult case and years of medical paperwork that Nick and his office downloaded onto a few discs. Nick kept in touch and remained positive , in spite of the many obstacles that I faced because of having several health issues and which included a rare disease. We won at the hearin...g. Thank you Nick for all your hard work and loyalty.

Marie, It was a pleasure working with you towards proving your disability. The hard cases are often the most rewarding, and I am very happy that we were able to overcome all obstacles and prevail. Thank you for the kind words.
