About Law Offices of Barbara B. Comerford

Caring and Compassionate Lawyers and Staff

Law Offices of Barbara B. Comerford concentrates its practice in the area of disability law. Since Ms. Comerford began the private practice of law in 1985, she has made it her mission to make every effort to approach her clients' needs with kindness and compassion. Our staff reflects that commitment. Our associates, bilingual paralegals and legal assistants take the time to listen, and to assist clients through the maze of forms, and bureaucracy which can often overwhelm them. And when our clients' legal needs require outside assistance, we refer them to others who may be able to help them. In that sense, we take a holistic approach to the law. We understand that a call to our firm usually reflects months of anguish about whether to retain an attorney to help navigate through the disability process. Contrary to the public perception, most people call a disability lawyer when they simply have no other choice.

While Barbara Comerford began her legal practice in 1985 representing personal injury plaintiffs, as well as disability clients, in the late 1990's, she made a decision to concentrate her practice on assisting disabled clients. Since that time, she has referred all personal injury cases to law firms with vast experience in personal injury matters. However, Ms. Comerford encourages those clients to continue to reach out to her if they have any other legal questions or concerns.

Our firm remains committed to zealously representing clients with disability claims against the Social Security Administration, long term disability insurance companies (ERISA and individual disability income policies) as well as state disability pensions. Ms. Comerford has more than two decades of experience in this field and has earned a reputation for working hard to ensure that her clients are protected, and that their rights are zealously guarded. Please contact our firm for a free consultation. We look forward to helping you!

I did not hire an attorney when I first filed for Social Security Disability because as a professional, with clear medical records, and a good work history, I felt the case would be easily decided in my favor. I may be an educated professional in my field; however, the Social Security Disability laws are so complicated that it takes a specialized legal team. The Law Offices of Barbara Comerford was that highly specialized team. The emotional support and understanding shown by Barbara Comerford & Jennifer Manger enabled me to focus on my health and life without anxiety.

I had the pleasure of having Jennifer Manger represent me. She was very compassionate and understanding. She was always professional, thorough and took the time to explain the whole process to me. 3 months later I got my positive response from Social security. It couldn't have been any easier or more simple. I would highly recommend Jennifer to anyone needing a Disability lawyer. Now I can just concentrate on getting better.

I am Profoundly Deaf and I was referred to Barbara Comerford Law Firm from my Attorney that did the closing sale on my business. I was assigned Matthew Cantwell. he was very helpful, listened to my issue and immediately began preparation for my case. After receiving the required documentation he said this case will be an easy win since my hearing loss fell way below the threshold to qualify. I had other medical issues as well which he included but stated my hearing loss will be more than sufficient to win, and we did. He was so very compassionate and at the same time professional, helped me with all the SS/Dis documents and filed everything promptly. I strongly recommend anyone needing an Attorney for their case contact this firm. They were a delight to work with and always returned emails and phone calls promptly. I have given their name to a large accounting firm for giving out reference,

I was referred to the Law Office of Barbara Comerford by a friend and I was not left dissatisfied. I was represented my Jennifer Manger who is professional, caring, and makes sure you are comfortable with any and every step through out the SSD process. Unfortunately my case was in action during Covid which meant the process was more of a headache but Jennifer made sure that I could contact her at any time, and kept me updated through every step. She definitely makes sure her voice is heard and stands up for those that need assistance. Thank you again for your service!

My experience here was that I was well taken care of by Nicole Thompson. She got the job done and helped me win my case. The agency was surrounded by nice people. Thank you!

I Hired this firm after unsuccessfully trying on my own to received Social Security Disability Benefits . I was assigned Nicole Thompson . I knew the first day we met ( Which was 2 hrs) that she would get the results I could not. Nicole was quick with responses via email or telephone, professional and kept me informed the entire time. We also beat the 12-18 month timelines NYS imposed. Case completed and check deposited in less than a year . As far as fee, thats is set by SSA, and for 6K, I never would have been able to do this on my own. AT our hearing , Nicole met with the judge . then we went in together . SSA says 30-9- days for a decision and 30-90 days for a check if you are successful. Mt favorable decision was in my mailbox within ten days and Nicole called me prior to that of the decision. Within 30 days, I had a direct deposit into my account. I would highly recommend this office ( also they were referred by another successful person) and ask for Nicole.

From my initial meeting with Jennifer Manger with the Barbara B. Comerford Law Firm, I knew that I was in extremely competent hands. Jennifer is the epitome of what every attorney should inspire to be. Jennifer is very professional, she was very thorough throughout my entire process, explaining step by step details down to a realistic guideline for my court date. Jennifer made sure that every document was filed timely, she appealed my early unfavorable decision, and represented me at my hearing which resulted in a fully favorable outcome. Words can not nearly express how remarkable Ms. Manger truly is!

Having found the law offices of Barbara Comerford has been a dream come true for my family and I. I was denied Social Security benefits twice and was beginning to lose hope. The staff here knew exactly what to do and how to do it. My attorney, Matthew Cantwell went above and behind to get the job done and get me the benefits I so rightfully deserved. He kept me informed through the process. He was effective and extremely knowledgeable. I am so happy with the results and would highly recommend the office to any and everyone looking for help and guidance. I am eternally grateful.
