I recently got denied my Social Security, and I had called this office to assist me with my Social Security disability claim appeal. Every time I make an attempt to call the office I’m always given the runaround that the secretary is not at her desk the first time that I communicated with the attorneys, I was told that they will communicate 24 hours later and no communication was made. I do not recommend this company if you are trying to appeal your Social Security disability communication is terrible. I was recommended by a friend for this company, but they have terrible customer service now I am delayed in my process with my Social Security due to negligence of this company. Do not waste your time.

Response from owner

I am sure it can feel frustrating to feel like you have not received a return phone call. The only record that we have for someone with the last name displayed above called us on October 28th. My assistant left a voicemail on October 29th at the provided phone number. I know in today's times people screen their calls if they do not recognize a phone number. I am not sure if this is what happened to our return call. If you were the person that called on 10/28, then call us today and we can provide you with the details.

There are no amount of words that I can write to show my appreciation to Merryl Jones for the work she did for me. I developed health issues late in my career and was not prepared to stop working but due to these issues I had to leave my job. Like so many people who become disabled, I was scared and worried on how I would be able to afford my insurance and just the basic cost of living. From day one Merryl explained the process in a realistic manner that this is not a over night process and may take some time, but made me feel comfort with her compassion and her determination that she would do everything in her power to get the benefits I deserve. It was a long process and it can be stressful, but Merryl always responded to my emails and questions in a timely manner and always kept me updated along with always calming me down and keeping my stress in check with her positive attitude. I would be writing this review even if I was not awarded my benefits , because I know she did everything she could do and always made time for me. I can easily say she was right about everything she told me, it took time and it is a rollercoaster ride, but at the end of the day she did exactly what she told me she would do, she got me my disability benefits and it was such a blessing for me and my family. Merryl Jones was a blessing and was by far the best choice I could have ever made when it came to picking my disability lawyer. If you want someone that will listen, answer all your questions and concerns throughout the whole process , work hard, and get you your benefits, In my book she is by far the best choice anyone can make. All I can say to her is, Thank You So Much.

The USAF, The US Govt, DFAS has me at 80% Disability. She blew me off, said I had no case. Thank You. Her commercials are a scam.! HER RESPONSE TO ME SHOULD BE..."I DROPPED THE BALL"

Response from owner

Mr. Surman - Thank you for your service to our country. I have successfully helped more than a thousand veterans win their Social Security Disability benefits when they meet the Social Security Administration's definition of disability. I think it is a shame that we have two government agencies with such different criteria to meet their standards for disability. However, we do and SSA by law does not even have to recognize the fact that a veteran who is 80% or even 100% disabled according to the VA meets SSA's criteria. When you called us 20 months ago, I asked for you to call me when SSA processed your application. Please give me a call if you would like to discuss further.

I would like to thank Merryl Jones and her team for an amazing job with my case. I highly recommend Merryl if you need a SS lawyer. She always took time to make sure I knew what was going on in every situation. She is always upbeat and positive even though my case took years to complete! I can't thank you enough, I'm so grateful you helped me and my family so much! May God bless you always!

Response from owner

Thank you for your kind words. Perseverance is the word that comes to mind for you and your case and to not give up! When we don't like what one decision maker says, then we keep going until we find someone who agrees with us.

I can't thank Merryl and her staff enough. From my first meeting until my disability hearing before a judge, they were professional, thorough and always kept my spirits up. We won my case and now I can have a future that I didn't think I would. I would recommend Merryl Jones to anyone who has filed for social security disability. She and her staff are top notch.

Response from owner

Thank you! Winning your disability case was very meaningful to myself and staff!

Merryl Jones disability attorney walked me through everything. She is very thorough and has been doing this for a while. You wont be disappointed. Disability benefits takes so long but it is worth it in the end. Through covid timeframes and all that I was going through she ultimately got the job done. Thank you to her and her staff for all their hard work.

Not very helpful.

Response from owner

Elijah - I am sorry that I could not accept your case. I spent a lot of time reviewing the details which I will not go into but would be happy to talk about personally. I have made it my career goal to help as many people as I can with disabilities. I always tell people that if I can come up with a theory to convince the Social Security law judge that you would meet disability guidelines and criteria, then I will take your case and you don't owe me anything unless we win.

I would like to put the word out to anyone that is wanting to file for Social Security or Social Security Disability benefits. I was given Mrs. Jones name as a Social Security Attorney while I was in rehab for my knee. The person, I do not even remember his name, talk to me about his experience with Social Security and how Mrs. Jones help him obtain his Social Security benefits. To be honest, I thought he was just pulling my leg. At any rate, I made the appointment with Mrs. Jones, she took care of all the paperwork and I was able to get my benefits. It took time, that is just how government agencies are, but I am 100% happy with Mrs. Jones and her staff. I was really impressed that Mrs. Jones was able to, through the appeal process, move my onset date back much father than I expected. That made me very happy and resulted in almost 40k in back pay for me and my family. Each case is different, and your pay or entitlement to Social Security or Social Security Disability are comprised of many factors. I believed that having an experience attorney in your corner is a huge part of the process. So, if you are considering applying for your benefits, I would highly encourage you to reach out to Mrs. Jones and her staff, they will go above and beyond in helping you obtain any benefits you are entitled to.

I didn't speak to Ms. Jones but her assistant was not helpful I guess because there's no money to get once she wins the case but telling me I should apply for one thing not even knowing the full length details of the case just ruin my entire hopes of seeking an attorney help.
