Hired Attorney

Well I had Scott F. Bocchio, Esq. as my ssd lawyer up untill today when his office called me to let me know they will no longer represent me. The best part is they dropped me a month before my court hearing. Since the judge presiding over my case only has a 45% approval rating I was no longer worth it as a client. Now I have to scramble to find a new lawyer in less then a month. I would not recommend them ever after something like this. I only ever talked to a person in the office and never with the lawyer ( Scott F. Bocchio, Esq.)

Hired Attorney

I found this atty practice to be unprofessional and I did their work. When I hired them I was told they would review all my paperwork /answers to be sure correct wording would be used and my answers clear. They just turned my paperwork in. I didn't need them to just send in my own paperwork. They were supposed to call Social Security numerous times and they never could get through. Funny because I got through everytime I called. They were supposed to be the buffer between me and Social Security I ended up answering all questions, interviews by myself. Basically they didn't do a dang thing and I think there is something way off about the practice. I am sorry I hired them for me to do my own work.

The lawyer did a good job listening to our situation and informing us of the next steps we needed to take, warm and compassionate but very professional. Would definitely call again and consider hiring if our situation required a lawyer.

I think people are asked to make these reviews by this company! they have to be, because this company is one of the worst law firms ever! Please avoid this law firm at all cost. I wouldn't give it a star but I had to to write this review! They are lazy, not knowledgeable to anything, and you have to do all the leg work yourself. It's like you don"t have an attorney and more like you are representing yourself. They do nothing and get paid like they really have done something! AVOID! AVOID! AVOID!

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.
