Berry Law is an excellent choice to handle your VA claim. Sean Shepherd assisted me with my claim. He displayed tremendous knowledge in how the process works and communicated with me the entire time. I would recommend Berry Law to anyone seeking assistance with their VA claim as well. Couldn't be happier with my choice.

This firm is about as good as it gets in my book when it comes to taking care of veterans. They helped me get my 100 P&T after struggling filing claims by myself. If you are a veteran and have issues regarding military service give them a call, you will not be disappointed.

Berry Law was amazing at settling my VA claim. Matthew Bartling and McCain Vasa worked endlessly to insure the best outcome for my family and I. Matthew was able to reopen my claim and get the VA to acknowledge my disability. I highly recommend them to all veterans in need of VA benefit assistance.

Hired Attorney Montana Blu Crow

Montana Crow is the most professional person I have ever met. She knows exactly what she is about and how to go about it. I'm sure all of the lawyers at this outstanding law firm are competant but I give special thanks to the Lord that she was assigned my case because almost immediately any worries I might have had began to melt away and would continue to do so as her talents and dedication to her clients were put on display. I was fascinated by her ability to write up powerful sppeals and taking the appropriate steps to reach her goals. Recently the VA acknowledged my disabilities are service related and she is now tying everthing together to get as high a rating as she can for me. Thank you Berry Law Firm, thank you Montana. When God created you he created one incredible piece of work. Who knows, now that a happy ending is in sight, I might even finish my book, after all. For anyone who is struggling like I was do yourself a favor and call Berry Law Firm and know you are now in the

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.
