5 out of 5 stars until higher is an option! My case was an outlier. My medical facts were bullet proof, but the circumstances around it made the matter tedious and extremely complicated for the courts to deal with. The cribs notes version is as follows. People who adopted me under false pretenses lead themselves to believe that they had something to gain by not signing me up for disability as a child. They lied about my eligibility for disability benefits and their perfidy was not discovered by myself or by my doctors for many years, until after the conventional opportunities to apply for child disability had expired. Cliff Berkley and his staff fixed this. That was no small task. It was a long and arduous battle, multiple other disability advocates declined to take the case, but in time it worked out. Furthermore, neither Cliff, nor his staff ever complained about my case. They never came right out and said it but my knee jerk assumption has to be that with the time and effort it took to win my case, they could have won three conventional cases for exactly that much more money. Even after the trial, when there appeared to be some nascent "issues and deliberations" about whether or not certain social security branches were going to follow through with the judges orders and fulfill their duties, the Berkley office was still there to grease the wheels and make sure the process kept chugging. Bottom line, I don't believe I could have gotten a better outcome with a different team. The time the courts takes to process these cases is not a reflection of the attorneys and the advocates who wish to perform chivalrous battle in them, if your medical facts meet the federal guidelines for disability, consider working with Cliff Berkley, and keep plinking away at the system until your fingers fall off. Special shout outs are also due to Jenni, and the nice lady over the phone whos first name probably isn't "Berkley's Office how may I help you", but this is how I know her. There are likely others behind them as well. Thank you all very much!
I need help with a permanent disability claim and while an attorney turned me down and another never even responded, Cliff did not. He listened to me intently as I explained my situation, and his response demonstrated his thorough understanding of how this process works, and his approach gave me hope. He has answered all my questions promptly, even during this busy season when most people are off. A win is never guaranteed, and we are still in the preliminary stages of the process, but I feel supported and confident that I have a fighter on my side, especially since compensation is contingent on getting a win. I will update this review as the process progresses, and the rank of the review will not depend on the outcome nearly as much as on how my claim is handled along the way, and so far, it's a 5 star, emerald diamond rating. Thank you Cliff!
Hi cliff it is me Prince. Thanks for the call today. It made my day. I've been disabled since 2019 and have applied multiple times and was denied. It wasn't since I searched to find a disability advocate and lucky I was because I found Berkeley disability, they went right to work after after the first time we spoke. Cliff and the staff are very knowledgeable on social security disability and social security income and all the necessary steps that you need to take to get approved for your claim. It will take awhile so be patient, one thing to remember is don't give up and don't quit keep appealing every decision until you see the law judge. Just know that Cliff and his amazing team had your back and will continue to fight on your behalf. Thank you cliff and thank you Samantha for all your extraordinary help during one of the toughest times in my life. I truly appreciate you and everything you stand for. God bless you, your family, and your wonderful team.
I am very thankful and grateful to Cliff Berkley and his staff! Especially Jenni who was helping me with all my medical records. They are all amazing! From start to finish this team was very exceptional, professional, and efficient. They make you feel like family and give you the best customer service and advice they can. And they never let you give up hope. I got approved after an appeal which they proficiently prepared and submitted for me. I would highly recommend Berkely Disability to anyone looking for someone to help them with SSDI.
So far, this lawyer has been great. Clifford Berkeley helped with my Dad's disability appeal and now he's helping mine. He's a big guy, super tall and large, but don't be mistaken he's super sweet and genuine about helping you. His office staff has been incredible, so informative and pleasant to speak with. They all work together and communicate with eachother so you're not repeating constantly. Shout out to Sam and Jenny for excellent service!! I would definitely recommend this place. And even though i haven't won my appeal quite yet, I know with Clifford I will.
