John B. Gately Attorney & Counselor at Law Pro

The absolute most wonderful attorney possible. He spent so much time on my case, and honestly became one of my great friends. My family loves him as well for taking such good care of us. I would be totally lost without his assistance. And we won! We won big!

Best phone call we ever made! Jack Gately knows more about the MEB process and the VA than anyone else you will ever meet. As a reservist hurt on active duty, I had been in a limbo status/fight with my unit for years - no pay no points. Hiring Jack got the ball rolling. He told us exactly what to expect, coached us through every step, and got us through the process with an outcome far better than I ever expected. He also became a very good friend! Don't waste another day Call Jack now.

Can't stress it enough. Get an attorney BEFORE you enter the MEB/PEB process. Mr. Gately provided me the right information on time, so the outcome of my case was what was right for me. Mr. Gately treated me with professionalism, promptness and was right on the money with his advice. He knew more than my PEBLO. Highly recommend.

At a time where assistance was sparse and fear of the unknown abundant, finding Jack provided a beacon of hope. Throughout this entire process of reviewing years of medical files, preparing documentation, and attending the med board, Jacks knowledge of the Coast Guard is unmatched. At the hearing he proved his medical knowledge and terminology resulting in positive increase in my retirement offering. I cannot write enough accolades about Jack.

John Gately represented me 2 times for Military Medical Boards. He was very well prepared for both cases. He made what would have been a very difficult case to win with the JAG Lawyer, previously provided to me, a simple case. {para}I highly recommend Jack Gately and have been passing his number on to anyone in need.

Hiring John Gately was the best decision I ever made in my military career. John Gately displayed superior knowledge with the U.S. Coast Guard Physical Evaluations Board especially with Reserve members. Mr. Gately will also provide assistance with the VA Disability Claim for all members. If you are in doubt about Military counsel or just lost in the whole Medical Board process then Mr. Gately is your man. Mr. Gately will fight for you until get you the benefits that you deserve!

Mr. Gately is a very knowledgeable and personable attorney. He did very diligent and thorough technical research into my case to support the VA and DOD ratings I deserved for my medical conditions. You won't find another attorney who will show as much genuine care about your conditions and situation than Mr. Gately. I would highly recommend Mr. Gately to anyone who is going through the disability evaluation process with the VA or with any branch of the military. Great work, Mr. Gately.

If you are in the military or a Veteran, then you know how to follow instructions. If you need help getting the benefits you deserve, then Mr. Gately is the attorney for you. If you can follow simple instructions then Mr. Gately will get you what you deserve. He did it for me and I'm very grateful for his services. I would recommend Mr. Gately to anyone seeking a just and deserving rating for their VA disability claim. Thank you again Jim.{para}Joe Smith

During the medical evaluation board process it was extremely stressful, from medical issues to complicated regulations I didn't understand, and it seemed as though I was alone. John Gately was a prayer answered from my LORD JESUS CHRIST. He ensured I was represented, and that my case was correct. He represented me thoroughly throughout the case and caught key issues that weren't addressed resulting in my case being successfully won early without going to the formal board. Great guy and Attorney.

Mr. Gately's responsiveness, level of professionalism, and results are unequaled. I strongly advise people who are faced with a Military Medical Board to hire Mr. Gately. Mr. Gately has won every part of my medical board until I was found fit for full duty. His pricing is beyond reasonable and he is a very pleasant person to work with. If you want to win your case hire Mr. Gately!
