I found myself in need of a lawyer to represent me in two legal matters. The first was regarding…read moreSocial Security and the second case dealing with the Public Employees Retirement System, better known as (PERS). Like many people I had no idea where to turn. My professional caregiver strongly suggested that I speak with Erica J. Mandell because several clients had similar experiences with social security and they received favorable results from Ms. Mandell and Her services. I telephoned Her office and left my name and contact information. Ms. Mandell returned my call in less than one hour and arranged a consultation for the very next day. Ms. Mandell instructed me to bring along any paperwork that I received from the Social Security Office to the consultation meeting. After reviewing the paperwork and explaining exactly what was contained in the received paperwork and what responses were required, Ms. Mandell agreed to represent me in my cases. Ms. Mandell explained to me it was important to understand what was happening with the cases and She would walk me through everything. That was a promise She completely kept from start to finish. Erica Mandell explains confidentiality and that she would not speak or correspond with any person, medical professional, or other entity without my express written authorization. As with any government agency the rules and regulations can be extremely complex. The Social Security Administration and (PERS) are no different and no less complicated. As a regular person it can be very overwhelming. It was a great relief to have Ms. Mandell there to translate all those letters and documents into something I could understand. She explained what information they requested and required. And the order in which the returned documents needed to be processed. She explained the the out going paperwork was equally as important as incoming documents if the process was to proceed accurately. Step by step with exceptional detail and determination every I was dotted and every T was crossed. I was a difficult client as I was not very willing to discuss my conditions. Erica J. Mandell was able to listen and empathize with all that I am going through and more importantly was able to put the words to the required papers. That was something which I would never have been able to complete on my own. My Social Security Administration case was concluded. The results were favorable on my behalf. It was great relief to myself and my family. Even though all of the documentation was accepted on time and in order without errors or corrections my PERS case required in person testimony by myself, my family, and by medical professionals by an NJ State Judge. Ms. Mandell contacted all of those people and scheduled and spoke with them on my behalf. I think it is important to mention that having and advocate with you during the legal process is essential. I always felt that Ms. Mandell had my best interests in mind during the cases. When speaking with Her, She always referred to it as "our case". It was very clear she was there for me. Even after regular business hours and weekends. On many occasions I left messages on the office phone after hours and She returned my calls that night or early the next day even on the weekend. On more than one occasion Ms. Mandell came to my home when I was unable to travel to Her office. Erica Mandell came highly recommended, She is very knowledgeable and extremely trustworthy. Also extremely detail orientated. Ms. Mandell is very compassionate but a tough fighter with great communication skills who is driven by advocacy. These are just a few of the many reasons why I can without hesitation and with complete confidence endorse Erica J Mandell for any and all legal matters regarding (PERS) and or the Social Security Administration.
