Attorney Chalkley and his staff did an excellent job handling my SSDI case. Tracy and Mrs. Chalkley always answered calls and text messages immediately. Everyone in the firm was nice and very patient with me. They are a professional and confident group which made me feel confident. I was awarded my benefits without having to appear before the judge, thanks to the great detailed representation from the Chalkley Law Firm. If I ever need representation to keep my benefits, I’ll definitely call them again.
I struggled to get disability for over a year through one of those 800 get approved scams and it was a total nightmare!! I was finally referred to Atty Chalkley by a friend of mine and he took my case right away!! His staff, especially Tracy are by far the most caring people I've ever encountered! They returned my calls right away, answered EVERY question I had and showed nothing but respect for me! It's not an easy process and it didn't happen over night, but Atty Chalkley and his team got me approved! Not only approved but back dated 2 years!! He worked so hard for me! I would recommend this team to anyone and everyone who is seeking true, honest and hard working ppl to help you get through this difficult time in your life!! THANK YOU to you Atty Chalkley and your incredible staff! I will always be grateful for you! Love you all! Erica
I called asking if they could help me with my SSI and disability benefits because they amount was being lowered . The receptionist refused to make me an appointment because I am already receiving benefits and they only help people obtain benefits and that I should call SSI instead and speak with them directly. I asked if they advocate for their clients to get the most out of their benefits or if they do not care the amount their clients receive and only deal with obtaining said benefits and nothing else. She replied with "yes of course but you are not a client." I found this to be very rude and unprofessional. She made me feel like a nuisance and not a potential new client. I then asked that if I needed an advocate to work on my behalf because I felt the system was treating me unfairly who should I contact. She provided no useful information and suggested call the Florida bar and asking them for a referral. I find it hard to believe that a law firm that works in the field of disability and social security law would not know of any attorneys who would help someone navigate that system when that is what they purports to do but only for their own clients. Apparently they are not in the business of getting any more clients. Overall I feel that if my experience with their receptionist is any indication this firm is not a good faith advocate for the disabled and those eligible for social security. At most they will get you through the process and once you are accepted they will no longer provide any assistance whatsoever. Anyone who is familiar with the system know that just being accepted is only the start and that it is a continuous battle to maintain your benefits as the system will attempt to reduce your benefits and the first opportunity whether you feel it is justified or not. Bottom line if you need assistance getting the benefits you deserve and navigating the system, this firm will NOT ADVOCATE FOR YOU!!!
This is the most wonderful law office I have ever had the pleasure of working with. Tex and his staff especially Tracy go above and beyond and out of their way to help with your case and any other ways they can help. They were able to win my husbands social security case. He also advised on how to proceed with a worker’s compensation case. They are very knowledgeable, and had a vast amount of useful information. I would recommend Mr. Chalkley and his staff to any and everyone. Clients are important to them in this office, we never once felt like a file number, they are kind and caring. I cannot thank them enough for all that they have done.
I was astounded at how simple and fast they made my disability case. I got approved in the fastest time possible thanks to J.W. Chalkley. It changed my life for the better and I don't know what I'd have done without them. Thank you Mr. Chalkley! Highly recommend and they also offer other services.
