I recently reached out to Mr. Palso's office with a question about a post-award issue concerning Social Security Disability. Since my claim had already been approved, I made it clear from the start that I wasn’t seeking to retain legal representation, just some clarification and legal guidance. I was fully prepared to pay for his time, but to my surprise and gratitude, he took the time to speak with me over the phone without charging a fee. Not only did he patiently and thoroughly explain the relevant laws and processes, but he did so with incredible kindness, clarity, and professionalism. His deep knowledge of Social Security law was immediately evident, and he never once made me feel rushed or as though my questions were unimportant. What truly blew me away was what happened next - he followed up with a detailed email the next day, carefully summarizing everything we had discussed and providing additional insights and legal advice, again completely free of charge. It was clear he genuinely cared about helping me understand my rights and how to move forward, even though there was no financial incentive for him to do so. Mr. Palso is not only highly knowledgeable and skilled, he's also a truly remarkable human being. His compassion and integrity came through very clearly in my interaction with him. I am truly impressed and deeply grateful. I would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone in need of a dedicated and trustworthy legal professional. This is exactly the kind of person anyone would want in their corner.

I was referred to this attny for work comp by a neighborhood website. I have a speach disorder. Mr. Palso told me he didnt care about anything i was saying that i had 10 seconds to tell him how the accident happened, interrupting me to tell me i had 5 seconds left. Ok, even without a speach disorder, you cant give details of accident. I would not recommend unless you can talk real fast and he sure was not what you would call personable. I hu... And within 20 min, retained a very cordial law firm who did not give me a time frame to state my accident.

Great Attorney and Office workers. I closed on a 3 year long case with money in my pocket when I thought I would get nothing. I would go back to them again if needed.

Dont buy into billboard marketing! I made that mistake until I called Dennis Palso. Mr. Palso took over my case from one of the big firms and worked diligently to fight for my best interest. He and his excellent paralegals will walk you through every step of thr process. I could not be happier with my choice. A+++++++++ 5 stars all the way!

Dennis Palso will treat you like a person not a number compared to the big firms. He will fight for your benefits and interests keeping you informed about the progress of your case the whole time. Your questions will always be answered, they respond very quickly, especially by email. Dennis is an expert in workers' comp but he looks further at your SS and protects you. Great man, great team! Thank you Dennis! Thank you Michelle!

Found myself in need of a Workers Comp attorney. After viewing 22 different law firms and attorneys and reading reviews, I called Mr. Palso, the best I can say is outstanding legal work. From the first interview to the mediation hearing, every single question or issue was covered. His experience was easy to see. His knowledge was almost uncanny. He knew where the mediation was going and guided us to it. I walked away with more than I thought and was very happy. You can not do better than Dennis Palso in the Bayarea for workers comp issues.

I could not be any happier with how wonderful its been to deal with Mr Palso and his team. Very detail oriented and always on top of your case. Ive gotten reminders of appts i needed to make and you really feel a sense of comradery working with them. I never once felt they were just telling me what i wanted to hear and if anything they are brutally honest when they need to be which is quite refreshing. I would highly recommend them to anyone dealing with a workers compensation case such as i am

I have never been one for writing reviews, I have always considered them biased, prearranged, or simply falsified from someone paid to boost sales by offering fake reporting. This review is an honest testimony to the Palso Law Firm and certain individuals that have blessed my life and I want to share that blessing with anyone seeking help for benefits from Social Security or any legal advice needed in the future. Background – I am a disabled veteran that served 2 combat tours (Panama 89 – Kuwait 90 – 91) and hired an attorney that I trusted to complete my VA disability compensation. Once my compensation benefits were filed, I asked my VA attorney if I may file for other benefits that I could possibly qualify for and was told that I may qualify for social security benefits, and I should file. Needless to say, after 10 months I was denied. I informed my VA attorney and was referred to the Palso Law Firm to start the process of social security benefits at the age of 53. Originally, I was not happy with this and wanted my VA attorney to handle my application to the SSA due to the extreme and complex process of dealing with the SSA. As a veteran, my benefits from the VA were straight forward, I served, I got injured, I deserve the benefits that are entitled to me. But, with the Social Security Administration, they have complicated rules that are in many ways against us receiving any kind of benefits until you reach the “retirement age” and this includes disability compensation. I voiced my negative opinion to my VA attorney about not handling my Social Security claim and was told that “If I recommend them, you can be sure I trust them to take care of you”. Reluctantly, I took his advice and hired the Palso Law Firm (best decision ever). From beginning to end – the process of filing, the paperwork / documentation required and any questions I had were answered quickly and explained to me in detail throughout the entire process. I never had to wait for an answer and all my emails were answered within a day throughout the process. The SSA and filing for any type of benefits is a lengthy process, especially for disability compensation. After some time, 13 months or so, I received a conference call from Dennis Palso and Michelle Villa informing me that a Judge has made a ruling concerning my case. I was informed that the Judge would approve my claim under certain conditions. The conditions were that I would receive benefits but no retroactive payments – meaning the 19 months I waited would not be paid to me. My first thought was “damn, I need that money”. I asked Mr. Palso why I couldn’t receive that backpay! He informed me that I could refuse the Judges offer and take it to court to offer testimony of my condition. This required a lot of governmental testing, exams, disability reports that could possibly hurt my case and I could lose the current offer in this time-consuming process. He informed me that it was my decision, and he would support me in the decision that I would make. I thought about it, and it hit me, his compensation! I asked him, how do you get paid if I take the current offer without the backpay? He paused and said, “I don’t”. I quickly did the math, he would lose a lot of money in compensation recovery, money already spent, time and resources. I asked him what does he recommend? To my surprise, he recommended that I take the current offer due to the possible risk of losing in the long run. I told him that it wasn’t fair to him and if I took the deal, I would somehow pay him his fee over time. He said, “my job is to get you your social security approved, and I accomplished that – sometimes I win, sometimes I lose”. Tears rolled down my face and I couldn’t even speak. It’s very rare you find an attorney like this and a firm that lives by higher standards than we are familiar with. Thanks so much to the Palso Law Firm - particularly to Dennis and Michelle!

MR PALSO AND HIS STAFF ARE EXCELLENT HE HELPED WITH MY DISABILITY CASE AND WORKMANS COMP CASE

To all that needs legal representation, I would highly recommend Mr. Palso and his legal team. His personable approach and concern is genuine when speaking with you as your case will become front and center. He also showed a great deal of confidence in me amd my case. Ms. Villa-Lovern an excellent paralegal in her own right kept my case organized while Mr. Palso and his experience culminated a winning formula. Mr. Palso was able to argue my Social Security Disability Benefits case before a Judge and came out on top. That said, I can not thank Team Palso enough for their professionalism, dedication and commitment in seeing my case through. They have definitely brought a sigh of relief to me and my family's wellbeing. Again, I encourage everyone to seek out their professional approach in getting your case resolved. It was my pleasure to work with an outstanding Law Team. Thanks again, Joe Charles C. Armstead

I wish I could give him more than 5 stars! I will never be able to express the gratitude that I have for Dennis Palso, and his right hand, MIchelle, for the care they took in taking the lead and guiding me through my workers compensation claims/settlement process. I was beyond worried and anxious about choosing an attorney because I’d never had the occasion to retain one’s services. My workers compensation case was not only complicated from a legal standpoint, but it had taken a mental and emotional toll on me. I researched attorneys for weeks and I finally decided on Dennis, due to his credentials and reviews. From my initial meeting with Dennis, as well as with his office manager, Michelle, I felt immediately at ease. While in that first meeting, I think I exhaled for the first time in a couple of years. One of the main reasons that I chose Dennis is because he is in the less than 1% of Florida lawyers that are deemed experts in the Workers Compensation field. And throughout the entire process, he proved this to be true again and again. The special thing about Dennis is that although he has such a high level of expertise & legal knowledge in his field, he has the gift of being able to explain things to me in terms that I understood. It enabled me to feel like we were a team and that was something I didn’t expect regarding legal counsel. I think what was MOST important to me is that both he and Michele treated me like I was a human being, and truly understood that I was going through a very difficult time with this lawsuit. With Dennis, I NEVER felt like a number in a sea of many clients. (Many of my friends that had experience retaining various types of attorneys warned me that I may never actually speak to my attorney. Wrong! Wrong! Wrong! Dennis proved that nothing could be further from the truth. I cannot accurately explain the care that was taken by Dennis (and Michelle) with my case. I truly felt like I was his only client, although I know that was far from the truth. The communication between us was ongoing. Answers to my questions were immediate. For all the times that I picked up the phone to call with a question or just to be reassured, there was an answer on the other end. Responses to emails were immediate. I never had to sit in my anxiety wondering when I’d be able to speak with him. It really was incredible. A bonus (and icing on the cake) was watching Dennis skill in the mediation process (in real time). He is an expert negotiator – both confident and down to earth. I know for sure that he had my best interest in mind and heart 100%. The end result is that he was able to settle my case for more than I ever thought possible. I would recommend Dennis Palso anyday, anytime to anyone. I will honestly never be able to thank him sufficiently for his services.

Dennis is well-studied, and knows Workers’ Comp law inside and out. He helped me set clear goals, and he and his staff were diligent in their advocacy on my behalf. My case was resolved favorably; even better, in fact, than I’d anticipated. I strongly recommend Dennis and his team to get you the best possible result in your Workers’ Comp case!

The House of Snakes... "The Kiss of Death" By Ansbel Gonzalez Huart January 15, 2023 This brilliant, "unique" balustrade, which can be seen on the #calzadadelcerro, gives this building its name as "The House of Snakes." Erroneously—and this is a mistake I've read even from historians like Emilio Roig de Leuchsenring (if I recall correctly)—it is claimed that it is due to a defect in the construction of these swans that makes them look like snakes. Without being acute in artistic understanding, it is easy to understand, in my opinion, that we are witnessing the moment when the noble swan is defeated by the cunning serpent in an act of pure nature. I call (I) that moment of closeness that the creator, author, or artist wanted to express: "The Kiss of Death." Just as the cruel serpent is about to swallow the naive swan, who, standing tall and fighting for his life, knows he's defeated. #𝕰𝖑𝕮𝖊𝖗𝖗𝖔𝖞𝖘𝖚𝕳𝖎𝖘𝖙𝖔𝖗𝖎𝖆

I hired Dennis because I heard he was one of the most qualified for workers comp, and I had my reservations. Usually the most qualified people are so busy and don't pay much attention to clients, they just want to get them in and out. Mr. Palso and his paralegal Michelle made me feel heard, I was in communication every step of the way and they made sure I got the care I needed. They kept me informed of my rights and got me more than I thought I ever would. Yes, Dennis is one of the most qualified workers comp lawyers but him and his team are also one of the most responsive and caring people I've had the pleasure of doing business with.
