Amazing lawyer and staff! I recommend Steven to anyone who is experiencing problems with their own claim.

Won my disability case after over two years of going through the system on my own. I was skeptical of trying a disability lawyer but I was proven wrong! All the staff are very kind and Mr. Dolson was no exception. Thank you for your help!

This gentleman was just absolutely so helpful and I was so grateful for his help during a very stressful and scary bankruptcy. He had such a kind demeanor and didn’t brush me off and that just made me feel so much better about what I was doing. Would definitely recommend.

Very sad communication from this place, in my opinion they get way too much percentage for the job they do. File yourself and deal with it yourself. Very untrustworthy for me. Never again !!

Response from owner

In my over 20 years of experience handling Social Security claims I can tell you that I have seen far too many cases where people thought that they could file themselves just to get a rejection because they made mistakes in the application process. Worse still, those mistakes on the front end of a claim can tarnish the case throughout the entire process and ultimately result in a claim being rejected throughout the appeals process. As an attorney I can not give details about a particular case. We value an individual's privacy and do not communicate with third parties, even if those third parties are spouses or parents seeking information about a claim. We also do not communicate through e-mail as not all services are secure. Even though many people would prefer that we do these things, we do not for their own protection. As far as fees are concerned, our fee arrangement is dictated to us by the Social Security Administration. For work performed in front of the agency attorney fees must be contingent upon a successful outcome and limited to 25% of back-due benefits. This is significantly lower than most personal injury lawyers who charge between 33% and 40% for their work. Further, many attorneys do not accept claims at the application stage because the back-due benefits are typically very low and there is significant work involved. We accept claims at this level in order to avoid the types of problems I've mentioned above. It may seem like when we are able to win a claim at the application stage that we haven't done much work, but that is because much of our work is done behind the scenes and is tailored to laying the groundwork for an appeal if necessary.

Steven and his staff are outstanding. They take it through the process, provide you with the information you need to win your case. This is some thing you just can’t undertake on your own. Steve and The lawyers in the law office are just fantastic. Highly recommend it.

I had originally left a 4 star rating and it should have been a 5 star rating. Mr. Dolson is a very experienced and knowledgeable attorney. He handled my case with ease and knew just what to say when the time was right. He was very personable during my conversations with him and answered all of my questions with confidence. His entire office staff are very professional, polite and attentive. I couldn't be more pleased. If your looking for a solid attorney this is the guy....

Response from owner

Dear Mr. McLaughlin, thank you for leaving a review. We always appreciate feedback. If you could contact my office I’d like to know how we could have gotten 5 stars in your opinion.

Lawyer met with me for 5 minutes before my hearing..was totally abused by Judge I was not prepared..2 years of my life wasted. He lost trial and appeal..told me he had everything to win.. And I am no where..still sick and no help

Response from owner

As an attorney I can not comment on the details of specific cases, however, the information contained here is factually inaccurate. Our attorneys meet with every client approximately 6 six weeks prior to the hearing to guarantee both the client and ourselves are fully prepared for the hearing. Whenever possible we meet with clients about 1/2 hour before the actually hearing as well and are openly available to discuss a case at any time. Even with all the preparation in the world we can not guarantee that a case will be won. We take on the tough cases and unfortunately not all of them can result in a favorable outcome.
