Hired Law Firm

The Berry Law firm was recommended by Jim Moos, a friend of mine that knew I was in need of help preparing my disability paperwork. I am so glad he did. Seth Chambers and his staff worked diligently to meet all deadlines and insure all documentation was properly annotated. His leadership, knowledge and professionalism resulted in the VA acknowledging and awarding a100% disability for my sleep apnea as well as over 100 plus additional percentage points for numerous other disabiling afflictions. The unusual award of 100% on a first filing gives credence to the superior quality of products that are routinely assembled and submitted by Seth Chambers.

Berry Law took my case when i least expected anyone to. I was at my wits end navigating the VA system. Mr. Sean Shepherd talked me through the process and i started seeing results shortly thereafter. As a matter of fact the team helped me get over $6k that i never thought i was going to get. I recommend Berry Law to any Veteran in need of assistance navigating the VA. You will not regret doing so.

We were surprised with how quickly our lawyer got results. He took the time to review my military record to find to evidence needed for my claim. His help and support has allowed me to relax and stop injuring myself.

Berry Law, Corrina Bartels and her team, is exceptional at communication with their clients. They phone, text, email and have a website for all updates, in a timely manner. I have not had any problems contacting them. They call me with all VA updates, they file all appeals when necessary. They have helped me get VA claims approved and appealed all claims that the VA denied. They are awesome and cannot be beat. I would recommend them to all veterans, to get their claims approved. I rate them 5 star. Ed

Hired Attorney Rachel Collins

Rachel truly was amazing to work with. After my accident, it was just one headache after another and the extent on my injuries were largely minimized. But Rachel went above and beyond to get me the settlement I deserved and validated my frustrations. I can’t even begin to describe just how relieving it felt to finally have someone in my corner. She also was spot on with keeping updated and explaining the entire process through terms I could understand - the transparency and support from her and her team are parallel to none. Don’t make my mistake in trying to handle it yourself, call her first! You’ll thank my review later.

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.
