              After applying in Dec 2020 I solely did all the initial legwork and subsequent required tasks for my SSI case. Approximately 7 months ago I made the mistake of hiring Heard and Smith to 'represent" me with my case. After the initial startup with them they did next to nothing on my case. I can count on one hand how many interactions with a representative from their firm. I had to call social security myself to get updates and documentations regarding my case. DO NOT BOTHER HIRING THEM WHEN THEY DONT KEEP IN CONTACT WITH YOU AND MAKE YOU DO THEIR WORK THAT THEY EXPECT TO VE COMPENSATED FOR. IM FIRING THEM RIGHT NOW!!!

              Heard & Smith LLP Response

              04/30/2024

              Thank you for this thoughtful review of our team and our firm. Heard & Smith is dedicated to helping each of our clients get justice, we are so pleased to hear you are getting the help you are entitled to. And yes, you are correct, this is a challenging area of law. More than 2 out of 3 that apply for disability nationwide will be denied. Of course not everyone has the medical evidence to back up their claim, so some denials are to be expected. However, many of those who are denied will later win their benefits if they appeal and continue the fight for justice. With a representative's help SSA's data shows claimants are much more likely to win their benefits. Remember, you earned these benefits from your many years working and paying taxes. Our team is honored to guide you to justice on your claim. Wishing you the best.
