After 3.5 years, being told don't worry, we're the best, we will win.
They submitted stuff they told me not to submit, but they did anyways, it hurt my case a lot. Not a lot of prep time, ,maybe 10 minutes prior to seeing the Judge, I had a feeling it was not going well, even though they said there are no jobs I can do, due to many mental and physical impairments. The Firm told me they would not help with my appeal.
I appealed myself, only to get turned down after 1 year of waiting, I was going broke, I lost everything due to my illness.

Jeffery Rabin and his staff has stuck with me every inch of the way. I've been turn down 4 times. I had to see a judge to get my disability. Once I won. Took the state many months to finally get paid and my back pay. Rosa is a God send as she kept on them and i finally got my back pay. Finally out of the cold and doing well. This is a very professional attorney and staff. I highly recommend them. Process takes time with the state but a well worth it. I managed to keep my marriage, my home, and car, as well as dignity.
Once again thank you Jeffery Rabin and his associates.

I was referred to Jeffrey A. Rabin & Associates by a close friend when I was being denied for benefits. I called and got an appointment all who I spoke with before my appointment was very nice, helpful, and accommodating. I went to the Des Plaines location and met with Jeffrey. Jeffrey was so nice, understanding, and compassionate as well as intelligent. They immediately started working with me. I talked to Tina a lot during the process she was so amazing to talk with. She went above and beyond with what I needed. I also had the pleasure of talking with Grace as well she was helpful and sweet. Jim Brown represented me. He was knowledgeable, nice, and just overall great!! He made feel at ease during the process. Truly without them none of this would have been possible. I am so forever grateful to all of them!! Everyone you will encounter through the process is caring and compassionate as well as knowledgeable to get you what you need. I will never forget the first meeting with Jeffrey and how he gave me advice and insight on my condition which guided me on a better path. Jeffrey A. Rabin & Associates is a god send to me!! They will forever hold a special place in my heart. Not only did they get me approved for benefits but went out of their way to help me with stuff they did not have to. I give a huge thank you to them all!!!

I'm not sure anyone understands disability law better than Jeff Rabin. He is extremely knowledgeable, easy to work with, compassionate and professional. I've watched him gain benefits for people that other attorneys have failed to help. He's my one and only go to for referrals. Hands down.

Skilled representatives worked with me throughout the process, which lasted over two years. At one point, after two written appeal application forms were denied by Social Security, my wife and I were ready to give up. The legal team encouraged us to stay with it and in the end we got a hearing and a "Fully Favorable" ruling and settlement. The representation in court was excellent, including great coaching just prior to the hearing.

My Claim Fell outside of the 5 out of 10 years working. I hadn't worked since 08 And filed my claim in 2017. Jeffery Rabin Looked me in the eyes and said I believe you and I'm going to take your case. On Nov 1st We Received A Fully Favorable Ruling Putting My Date Of Disability 2010. The staff was Fantastic And Every Call Returned Timely. Thank You For Doing Such A Great Job

I owe these gentlemen my life. After years and years of absolute suffering due to spinal cord issues, my case was referred to Mr Rabin and his fine Associates. The attorney that was assigned my case was Mr Robert Dolton and I tell you and everyone that if I could give him the world I would. Simply put this man gave me back my own existence, my dignity, simply put my life. Words cannot express my gratitude because without his help I honestly don't believe I would be around right now. If Mr Dolton ever happens to read this I want him to know that the next time he has a bad day or feels that he isn't making a difference or something to that effect there is someone out there who thinks the world of him. May God bless you, your family, and your firm. I will be forever grateful.

From the minute I first entered their office I felt at ease. Mr Rabin explained the entire process in terms I easily understand.My claim was approved on the first submission, no need for appeals or a hearing! A special thanks to Jennifer, Hailey and the entire staff.You all took a stressful period of my life and turned it around. My family and I thank you all for a job well done.

I can't tell you how disappointed i am with this firm, how they handled my husbands case after 11 &1/2 years of disappointment after disappointment. Is completely appalling. The disrespect they showed us throughout the years never returning our calls for over a year, so we hired another attorney and low and behold they call us. Everything falls through with the other attorney which by the way we still retained Rabin continued with Rabin when the other firm failed to help us. I would call on several occasions only to get brushed off by the rude staff, and when i finally was able to talk with someone of course i was very angry and yes i voiced it. Finally we moved to another state and we still retained this firm, they finally got us a court date we won our case now mind you i sent them several people i can name names if need be they also took my case which i could have won myself i know that now it was SSI and i suffered strokes. They were given $20,766.00 they wrote us a letter and sent one to SS stating they would only take $15,766.00 leaving the balance of $5,000.00 to be given back to my husband. Since June of last year they have lied to us about getting paid. We found out they were paid in June of 2017 and here we are May of 2018 and they still have not given my husband the rest of his money. They have been lying to us and playing games with us since they received their check. So take my advice and stay away from this firm. I will be taking this to the media with the WHOLE STORY!!! I also will be going to SS to sit down with them to discuss this matter & having a sit down with the Judge.

Been with this office for nearly 7 1/2 years. Yes seven and a half years. And writing an awful review seems to be the only way someone will reply to me. My second hearing was Feb/2017, unfavorable ruling Aug/2017. After numerous attempts to speak to someone their I only received a message of "The appeal has been filed". After writing a terrible review Jeff Rabin called me and left me a message saying "He has ways to make this judge payout.". Feb 2018 received paperwork that the appeals board wanted paperwork. Contacted Jeff Rabin, JI'm Brown and Gary Ponce DE Leon with questions about what was being sent by email. Contacted them again by email a few weeks later and still no reply.
If you are planning on using this firm understand this............you are not important. After 7 1/2 years on a very clear disability case, it would have taken 30 seconds to leave me a voice mail about what was sent, it would have taken 60 seconds to reply to the email. Yet I received neither. Nobody had less than 60 seconds to reply in one way or another to me.
If this is how hard these people are going to work for my case, the least they could do is tear up my contract with them so I could get representation from someone who will do more than just file paperwork and appeals.
Both hearinga I was told by the attorneys, second time being Jim Brown that they would do most of the talking.Both times they sat silent, scared to rub the judge the wrong way. SILENCE in the hearing. That was my representation.

7 1/2 of being disabled, and all anyone there can do is file paperwork.

After sleeping on the review I wrote last night, I had hoped to feel differently. Unfortunately I don't. The sad part is now being contacted by the office will just confirm what I stated.

Thanks to Jeffrey Rabin and Associates, my son was just awarded Social Security after nearly two years of work by his expert team. Jeff's firm saw us through the application process, correctly predicted that my son would be denied initially and upon appeal, but that he would be granted social security in the end. They collected the necessary medical records and advised us at every step of the process. Government benefits are confusing, frustrating and can be intimidating. The team at Rabin and Associates was always there to reassure us and keep us going. We never had to worry about legal fees because the firm works on a contingency basis. In other words, they are payed out of "back benefits" and only if you win the case, so we never payed a dollar out of pocket. Even more importantly, they are genuinely committed to the needs of their clients. I highly recommend Jeffrey Rabin and Associates to anyone who is considering applying for social security. I would rate them even higher than a 5 out of 5 if I possibly could!

Jeffrey A Rabin & Associates handled my adult daughters disability claim successfully. Jeff, Spelios and Tina are professional, well organized and very effective in advising their clients on the procedure for filing a claim, and the. process leading to that successful outcome. Do not waste any time consulting with any other law firm. They are the best.

We engaged the Rabin law Firm to help us with our young adult daughter's application for SSDI benefits. Most significantly, they represented us at a formal Hearing which resulted in us succeeding in getting benefits. Moreover, throughout the process they were available for questions via e-mail, telephone and even for an in-office consultation which we requested. They also kept us patient through this 2 1/2 year journey.
Our only criticism is that they are so busy that it sometimes took more than one call/e-mail to get in touch.
Nevertheless, we would strongly recommend this Firm for anyone in a similar situation.

Attorney on time! Comfortable personality to cooperate with, clear instructions, unbiased information. Hearing was very professional! Not as nerve-wracking when you're confident!

Jeff and his team were very knowledgeable, confident, proactive, sympathetic and compassionate to my painful situation.  They helped me fill up miles and miles of complex application forms. Like a grandmaster in chess, the team helped me strategize and position the critical success pieces.  Consequently, I was approved first time with retro coverage.  Can't be happier than that!

I highly recommend Jeff and his team.  They championed my case and I felt assured from the beginning that I would be approved.  

Thank you Jeff, et al and please accept my gratitude.

I can’t really say many positive things about the service I received here. My final payment from SS has been held for 2 years due to the firm changing my attorney. My emails go unanswered and my calls never get returned. The second attorney I was assigned told me it shouldn’t make a difference if the firm assigned a new attorney to my case and I should get paid. However, it’s not getting taken care of. Glad to see other people have had a more positive experience as it’s a long and frustrating battle.

I give Jeffrey A. Rabin & Associates my highest recommendation. I spoke with Kelly who was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and compassionate. She gave generously of her time and went out of her way to help me. My situation could not be addressed by them at this time, but she directed me to the resources that I need to move forward.

I have been fighting for 5 years for disability. My first attorney did nothing to support me. I went to Jeffery A Rabin and Associates for a second opinion and they said they could absolutely help me, and they did. They some up for me and didn't stop until I won, because they believed in me, unlike anytim else. I highly recommend Jeffery A Rabin and Associates.

Tried to meet with attorney before hearing was refused until day of hearing.
Had little contact with office emails was rarely returned. Had given them the list of all my doctors so they could get medical records. I gave them copies of alot of my medical records they came to the hearing with no updated medical records. It was obvious that i had been disabled for years even with the old records. Seemed like nothing was followed through on the end. Several people had asked for reference for my attorny i refused to give them direction to this office. I was extremely disappointed. I had my work comp lawyer for almost 8 years and was very happy and great attorny we all hugged and cried when my case finally closed. Never had an issue as i did with this office. The lawyer they assigned me to said she was contracted in and said so she rarely even checked her email. I wouldnt recommend this office.
Rosa is the only good thing that i found with dealing with this office!! She is a great person works hard and she is the only one i had much contact i can count on 2 hands how much contact i actually had.

I highly recommend using the legal services of Jeffrey Rabin and Associates. We were audited and denied our disability and they were going to take it from us permanently but we reached out to Mr. Rabin and his office and they came through as we finally won the judgement so we can keep getting our SSD. My wife has done everything in her power to recover enough to work again but she is permanently ant totally 100% disabled. Making the case was not as easy as you might think, but Mr. Rabin and his team gave us excellent advice to help us win the judgement in the end. If I could give them 6 stars I would!

I would like to thank Grace and Jennifer for the awesome help and job they did in my case. You ladies helped in so many ways other than counseling me. I had been on my job 20 years and never thought I would be injured. I suffer in pain everyday since the injury. In the process of being in pain I shared with Grace I had started smoking cigarettes. Something I so dreaded doing prior to my injury. My nerves are on edge and I didn't have a clue what I needed to do since I could not work. My anxiety levels were rising daily. Grace helped put my worries at ease. Her soft spoken voice of reasoning helped calm my anxieties. She explained to me step by step what the process was and to not be ashamed of asking for help. Jennifer made sure we stayed in contact with one another and like Grace was available to answer any question I had. She also made sure I didn’t miss appointments as well as received documents and correspondence as needed. I thank God for all the work they did by making me a priority and listening to my needs. I would recommend the office of Jeffrey A. Rabin & Associates everyone I know. Thank you, thank you, thank you for everything.

I'm hoping on over 4yrs, I have several diagnosis that qualify for disability! I seemed to feel trying to find anything was just bugging them! I have tried to speak to Jeff however I can't hey him by phone or email.

I finally got a trial date & Robbery assured mr. We'd get together to go over things, he heard originally said we'd meet at the office a day or 2 prior to court, it turned into just show up about 5 minutes early that will be fine! I was sp nervous that's all I can think of to explain what happened (yes I'm on some strong narcotics), however I didn't take anything before hand, all I know is I feel asleep in my hearing, (I think my built up nerves finally relaxed & out I went. They went through with the hearing & the judge denied me, (seriously I'd live to hear the transcripts as I'd have to wonder about a judge who is ok with putting someone behind the wheel of a car that could nod out. Not to mention my pain dr. my primary dr both said I can't work, yet I still lost???
Don't even get me started with trying to actually get hold of Jeffrey, funny how after I lost the first hearing I filled out a general form to match me with other lawyers & Jeff actually calls me for my business???? I tried calling the number right back & I get his secretary who basically shamed me for filing out that form when they address already representing me! Never mind that maybe Jeffrey should already know I was his client for over 4yrs. I asked to speak to him as he had just called me but suddenly he wad RIP busy!
I've never ever been able to talk to Jeffrey but I'm still a client so I'm told!?
I just want to know what is going on, hear the first trial to understand how I was denied, (which the judge who denied me retired that week).
I remember I was so nervous because all Robert said about the trial wad that the judge were got was really tough!
Losing everything we're only with each passing year..

The Rabin firm represented my daughter in her claim for disability benefits. It is an absolute must to have a competent attorney working on your claim given the complexities involved and the need for genuine advocacy of your claim with SS. My daughter's claim was finally awarded to her recently thanks to the work and patience of Jeff Rabin and his team in working with my daughter.

Hands down, Jeffrey Rabin is the person you want as your advocate when navigating the complex nature of SSDI. I first became acquainted with Jeffrey back in 2001 and my praise of him and his efforts have not dimmed with time. He and his law firm are professional, responsive, courteous and above all -- EXPERTS in social security disability field!!!! As a psychotherapist, who has clients in need of this type of assistance, I send them Jeffrey's way without hesitation or delay. There's a great need for the services provided by Jeffrey and his law firm. To find this level of expertise in the Chicagoland area is like striking gold!
