John-Paul Gustad

I retained John-Paul Gustad at Gustad Law Group under very challenging circumstances. My previous attorney withdrew in early November 2025, leaving me with an Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) hearing already scheduled for January 7, 2026. John-Paul stepped in with less than two months to prepare and qu...ickly got up to speed on a complex SSDI claim involving mental health conditions. He coordinated a comprehensive psychological evaluation, carefully reviewed the medical record, and helped prepare me for the hearing. Throughout the process, his communication was clear, organized, and professional. Despite the compressed timeline, the outcome was a fully favorable decision from the ALJ. I am very grateful for his professionalism and effectiveness under pressure and would highly recommend Gustad Law Group to anyone pursuing an SSDI claim or appeal.

We highly recommend John Paul Gustad. He is very knowledgeable, professional and compassionate. His staff are both courteous and helpful. After two failed attempts on our own to handle the administrative law judge hearing for our daughter’s SSDI case, we were about to give up. We then found ano...ther attorney who highly recommended John Paul Gustad. John Paul was able to see from the facts of our case that our daughter deserved to be awarded the benefits. Once he took the case on, he was able to organize the facts of the case and present them successfully. The result was a favorable decision and our daughter was awarded her benefits. We are so grateful for John Paul Gustad’s efforts and expertise in handling the case. Thank you John Paul Gustad!

Today we won our case against social security. This case was very tiring and drawn out case. Denial after denial leaving us to have to administrative law hearing with a judge. JP stood by us kept the faith and we kept trucking along. Finally today this journey comes to and end and we are beyond grate...ful to JP and his law group. We would recommend them to anyone seeking out representation for a law issue they work on. Amazing job every there.... thank you

John Paul Gustad provided a complimentary and valuable how-to on navigating the Byzantine SSI process as well as state-funded options I had not considered. While my particular circumstances aren't likely to merit consideration by an Administrative Law Judge I know who I am going to call when it's ti...me to appeal.
