Molly did a wonderful job appealing the first decision and getting my disability started. But she didn’t stop there. She knows the law and was determined that I receive the back pay I was due. I was happy just getting the monthly disability pay but agreed to appeal the ALJ’s findings and she was right again. She pointed out the errors of law and the appeals panel agreed with her and granted my back pay. She doesn’t give up and I would highly recommend her legal services to anyone in need.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Jennifer! I am so glad that we kept fighting and got you a good result!
