Posted by Julian S. CPA (U of O alumni) | September 28, 2020 | Hired Attorney | Social Security Disability

Drew saved me when I was down and out waiting for the final count!

I filed my original disability claim in May of 2016. I was denied and down to my final appeal. I felt the government evaluations of my case were biased and the so called experts cherry picked my medical records. About 2 weeks before my final hearing, my attorney withdrew from case without explanat...ion. I was abandoned. I was fearful of what I would do without any financial support. I hadn’t worked in 5 years. I was lucky to find Drew. He took over the case and quickly came up to speed. He was honest and told me the pros and cons of my case in simple terms. We attended the phone hearing and at one point I thought it was all over because the physician expert painted a very negative evaluation. Being very well prepared, Drew noted points most attorneys would have missed. To my surprise after 4.5 years, I had favorable ruling and was awarded 3 years of retro benefits. Drew is a winner and a very a knowledgeable expert. I felt he really cared about me.

Engaged, grounded

Listened to me. Asked some questions, offered support in terms of my own reasonable effort at that particular point and offered support when/if the appeal process is engaged.

Disability claim process

Mr. Johnson did a fantastic job for me. He was not only kind and patient but he was realistic and told me how long it would actually take to get through the disability process. He always replied in a short time to any emails or letters and he was very helpful in every aspect of my disability claim.... I won my claim thanks to his experience and hard work and I would certainly recommend him to others.

Awesome Attorney

After an initially be declined for Social Security, I contacted Drew for assistance in appealing my claim. He is very genuine, caring & respectful professional! He is always very responsive & returns my messages promptly. I recommend him to everyone & he also represented my mom with a favorable outco...me. Thank you Drew & Sherwood for continuously fighting for me! I cannot thank you enough!

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
