Gustad Law Group Reference

After 6 years of fighting to be awarded social security approval with another lawyer, the Gustad Law group was able to get me approved after my latest administrative law hearing. My initial lawyer forgot to request an appeal following my 3rd attempt of filing for social security. As it had been long...er than 60 days from receiving the denial letter when I found out the appeal request had never been sent in, I had to start the entire process over. I began looking for a new lawyer after receiving the first denial letter after starting the process over. I had submitted the request for a ehearing and was 6 weeks out from the hearing date when I found Gustad Law Group. All other lawyers turned down my case due to the complexity of my case as well as the short timeline that remained until the hearing. The team at Gustad Law group immediately began working with me on the case. They were very friendly and were more than happy to answer all of my questions. After prepping me for the hearing everything went extremely well and I had an approval letter within a few weeks of my hearing. Thank You Gustad Law Group!

Exceptional SSI Representation and a Winning Outcome!

After enduring five years of setbacks and ultimate loss with a previous SSI lawyer, I was left feeling defeated and emotionally exhausted. Following a two-year waiting period after reapplying, I was incredibly fortunate to find John Gustad and his dedicated team. From our very first meeting, John ins...tilled confidence, reassuring me of his commitment to fighting for his clients and his impressive success rate, even with the most challenging cases. True to his word, John took on my case, and in less than a year, we went to court and achieved a triumphant win! I am profoundly grateful to John and his entire team, especially Angela, whose consistent reassurance and positive outlook were invaluable throughout the process. They transformed a long and difficult journey into a successful resolution, and I wholeheartedly recommend their outstanding services.

Don't wait. Get them involved from the beginning

Thank you Gustad Law Group! Everyone on the Gustad Team I dealt with was courteous, kind, helpful and understanding. I cannot emphasize enough how much I appreciate them all. If you are struggling with the disability process and feel overwhelmed or discouraged, I highly recommend Gustad Law to r...epresent you. The process and nuances are crazy to say the least. They understand the process, helped me organize my thoughts, better describe my past job(s), symptoms, limitations and explain my situation to the judge to get the results I needed. Even though it was nerve racking, knowing someone had my back was a big relief. Had I brought them into the picture from the very beginning, I believe the favorable outcome would have been earlier in the process. Lesson learned. Again, Thank you for caring about me and getting me through this stressful event.

Professional, experienced & KIND

Sincere and grateful THANKS to John Paul and his fabulous team! After being declined, my husband asked Gustad Law Group for help filing an appeal. Everyone we worked with were so amazing!! We were informed of every communication and filing. We were also told of what we might experience through th...e process. The staff (Angela & Vaelntina) were always available to help, answer questions and guide us. My husband recently was awarded his benefit. We could not have chosen any better legal team to help us!

From Terrified to Prepared and Winning my Disability Case!! If You Feel Overwhelmed by the Disability Process, Read This

I cannot thank Gustad Law Group enough for helping me win my disability case! The entire process was overwhelming and stressful before I had Gustad’s support, and I truly do not believe I would have gotten through it or won my case without their help and guidance! If you are struggling with the di...sability process and feel overwhelmed, discouraged, or unheard, I highly recommend them. My lawyer took the time to listen, explain everything clearly, and make sure I understood what to expect every step of the way. He helped me organize my thoughts and feelings, and explain my situation in a way the judge could fully understand, which made a huge difference. Instead of feeling terrified and alone, I felt prepared, supported, and genuinely cared about! You can tell he truly cares about the people he represents and wants the best outcome for them, not just the case itself. The secretary was also incredibly kind and understanding, which made such a difference during a stressful time. Having the right lawyer matters more than people realize. Because of their hard work, patience, guidance, and dedication, I finally have some stability and peace of mind moving forward! I will always appreciate everything they did for me, and I’m beyond grateful I had Gustad Law Group in my corner!!
