I highly recommend James B. Winston, Esq. for SSA Disability. He is extremely responsive and keeps you informed every step of the way. His knowledge of the Social Security process is impressive, and he takes the time to clearly explain what to expect and how to move forward. James is not only professional but also friendly and supportive, which makes a stressful process much easier to navigate. He is flexible and accommodating, always willing to work around scheduling needs and answer questions promptly. If you are looking for an attorney who is reliable, knowledgeable, and truly cares about his clients, James B. Winston is an excellent choice.

James is an incredibly strategic, skilled, and compassionate lawyer. I would not have won my uniquely difficult and very personal case without him. I can’t recommend him enough!

Attorney Winston was such pleasure to have represent me on my disability case. I would recommend him to anyone dealing with disability issues. I was referred to him by another law firm which had stopped handling disability cases. Attorney Winston is extremely knowledgeable in all aspects of disability law and procedures. As most disability cases are denied several times prior to a final determination hearing which can take years to even get to. My case is now in the final stages of completion after a favorable determination. I would highly recommend Attorney Winston to anyone who is going through a disability issue case as there is no way to easily go it alone and unrepresented.

I can’t recommend Jim enough. He makes the stressful ssdi process much more manageable. He’s very supportive and is easily available to discuss issues by phone or email. Going through a process that is so stressful and filled with self doubt, Jim offers help and support with no judgement.

Harmony -- thank you so much for the wonderful review. It was great working with you.<br>Best of luck in the future.<br>Jim

I met with James Winston on July 3rd, 2024, but I never expected much to come out of the disability case because I had heard and read so much about how nearly impossible it is to get any case resolved without denials and waits as long as 3 years. So you can imagine my shock and disbelief when exactly 9 months after meeting with him, my case was approved, and payments started being processed. James has been at this for so long that he knows exactly how to expedite these cases more so than the average person out there. If you want assistance with your case and results that will be faster than the norm, then I highly recommend this lawyer, James Winston. Not only does he excel at his job, but he also has compassion for his clients. He actually cares about people, which is refreshing in this automated, fast-paced world we live in. He knew I had other issues going on in my life, so he helped me with those by directing me to another lawyer who specialized in that area of expertise. I can not recommend this lawyer enough. He literally saved my life in so many ways. Thanks, James Winston, for all you did for me.

I recently had the pleasure of working with James Winston for my disability claim, and I couldn't be more satisfied with his services. From the very beginning, he demonstrated a deep understanding of the complexities involved in disability law and provided me with the support I needed during a challenging time.

James was recommended to me word of mouth as an expert attorney in disability law. I sought his assistance after my first SSDI application was denied. He is incredibly knowledgeable in the field and adept at guiding clients through the disability appeals process. He is honest, thorough, hardworking, and always quick to respond when you reach out. He doesn't sugarcoat things and sets realistic expectations especially when it comes to the lengthy process of navigating SSDI appeals and hearings. He prepared me incredibly well for my hearing. I get the impression that James is passionate about disability rights and works tirelessly to advocate for both his clients and the disability process as a whole. It was well worth the expense of hiring a lawyer to guide me through the appeals process and ultimately have a successful outcome. I can't recommend him highly enough.

Response from owner

Hillary - Thank you so much for your kind review, it means a lot. It was great working with you. Best wishes,<br>Jim

James Winston is one of the best, if not the best, attorney I’ve ever had. He is extremely thorough and truthful. He also has great prices and doesn’t try to take advantage like many other lawyers. He took on my unemployment appeal case and we won because of his expertise and knowledge. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a lawyer! Thank you so much again!

Response from owner

Katheryn - thanks so much for taking the time to share your experience. I appreciate it. Best of luck in the future.<br>Jim

Attorney Winston was recommended to me after I had been denied twice for disability benefits. Attorney Winston clearly articulated the strengths and weaknesses of my case. He is very knowledgeable about Disability Law and how decisions get made and why. He was attentive to all the details and made sure that all the necessary medical records and any related evidence was submitted on time. He presented my case confidently and made sure I was prepared for any questions that could come up. I was able to walk in and be confident and know that he was there to help me if needed. I did receive a favorable decision and I know that would not have happened without Attorney Winston. I would recommend Attorney Winston to anyone who is struggling with a disability and needs help with navigating the Social Security appeals process.

Attorney James Winston has worked very closely with me and my wife in handling my Social Security Disability claim. He took a very stressful situation and provided much needed empathy, compassion, knowledge and encouragement. He prepared us for every situation and was quick to return an email or call. I would highly recommend Attorney Winston to help with your Social Security Disability or Employment Issues.

Response from owner

Thank you, Matt. It was a pleasure working with you. Best of luck in the future.<br>Jim

Was dealing with hostile employer a year after leaving. Despite qualifying for unemployment, my former employer continued to attempt to have my unemployment rescinded. Jim was able to expertly represent me at my appeal hearing and overwhelming won the case in my favor. I highly recommend him if you are dealing with a difficult ex-employer and/or the appeal process.

Jim has extensive skills and experience with Employment Law and Social Security Disability. I am extremely confident in Jim’s abilities to handle all my matters as well as represent me to the State of Massachusetts, Federal Agencies and Social Security Administration. Feel confident that Jim will handle your business similarly

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, Michael. I enjoyed working with you and wish you the best in the future.<br>Jim

We found Attorney Winston by happenstance and we are so grateful that we did! After two unsuccessful attempts with a family member's disability claim, Jim stepped in and carried it through to a successful resolution/decision. We felt lost after the initial decisions and before we met Jim. After meeting Attorney Winston, we felt heard, understood and supported. We cannot thank you enough, Jim!

Response from owner

I really appreciate your taking the time to leave a review. So glad we had a successful outcome. Thank you.<br>Jim
