Hired Law Firm

As a veteran, navigating the complexities of Veterans Affairs (VA) claims can be a daunting and overwhelming task. However, my experience with the assistance provided by an exceptional team of professionals has completely transformed my outlook. If you're a veteran seeking help with VA claims, look no further—this team is the real deal! From the moment I reached out to their office, I was met with warmth, respect, and an unwavering commitment to supporting veterans like me. They truly understand the unique challenges faced by those who have served our country and are dedicated to ensuring that each veteran receives the benefits and care they deserve. Special thanks to Seth Chambers, Melissa Lovrien and all those working in the background to make things happens for veterans like me

Berry Law has been exceptional since I first contacted for assistance with appealing VA disability claims. Sarah and her team have accomplished 300% more in the past year than I did in the previous 6 years. They are professional and very passionate about securing the benefits due our country's veterans. I would highly recommend to veterans battling the VA disability claims process.

I chose Berry Law to help me with the VA claim process as it can be difficult to navigate it alone. The firm has a proven track record and is comprised of veterans. I didn’t know what to expect when reaching out to them but they more than exceeded my expectations and I would highly recommend them to any vets needing assistance with the process. I especially want to thank Matthew Bartling for his hard work, prompt responsiveness, and kindness.

Hired Attorney Evan Daniel Stein

I recently had the privilege of working with Evan Stein for my personal injury case involving a badly sprained ankle, and I am extremely pleased with the outcome. From the very beginning, Evan demonstrated a high level of professionalism, expertise, and dedication to my case. Throughout the process, he was incredibly responsive and kept me informed at every step. He patiently listened to my concerns, answered all my questions, and provided clear explanations of the legal proceedings. I always felt supported and confident in his abilities. Not only did he successfully win my case, but he also managed to recoup my costs, ensuring that I was fairly compensated for the damages I suffered.

Hired Attorney Montana Blu Crow

Montana Crow and her legal team with Berry Law were simply amazing to work with! I have several facets with my VA Disability Claims cases, and she has been responsive and professional the entire way. Over the course of the past 2.5 years, her ability to analyze my situation, and her knowledge on how to pursue and present my case to the VA resulted in one significant victory at the VA appeals level and the granting of three other unrelated claims, which includes VA's most recent decision of granting me 100% P&T disability. This could not have been achieved without Montana's advice, counsel, and overall management of my VA disability claims. I cannot thank her enough for her outstanding work and dedication!

Hired Attorney Rachel Nichole Collins

Rachel came very highly recommended, and I quickly found out why. I felt comfortable with her from day one. I was confident she was going to fight for my case after our first meeting which took a huge weight off my shoulders as I was trying to navigate the settlement alone. I was extremely impressed with her communication during the entire process and with her legal expertise in personal injury cases. She answered my calls and emails and always made me feel that my case was important to her. By far the BEST attorney experience I have ever had!

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews

Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
