I'd recommend staying on top of your documentation that you send because it may not be reviewed until the end and you will need to make sure you have as much as possible to bring to your hearing! The judge will want support of your claim and knowledge justification for your request! You have to be on top of your case !

My name is Christine Nankishore and I'm a resident in Aurora Illinois. I hired an attorney Debra…read moreSpector with Spector and Lenz in Oak Park IL a while back for my disability case. My case went to the Federal courts so it was a long process and we won but I am not satisfied with the outcome. I feel like I was taken advantage of tremendously during a period when I was really ill (end-stage liver failure) and desperate. During this time my attorney Debra Spector kept bombarding me with stuff to sign and many of the things I questioned and she deliberately lied to me. I'd like to say that I received a letter from Social Security on 10-07-2023 indicating that I owe Spector and Lenz 40,542.68 that it is being withheld to pay my Attorney. Honestly this was a surprise to me as I was never informed that it was ever going to be that costly as it states in that letter; practically %50. My attorney told me several times when I had asked her about her fees she kept stating that I'm only responsible for the 25 percent or which is $7,500 maximum thats what she lead me to believe over and over again. I had my attorney get some medical records for me because I was really ill but her cost doesn't justify it; i just don't see it. I even asked Debra Spector for a itemized bill on two occasions and she won't respond to me which I'm entitled to a bill I would think. How can a person charge over $40,000 and not have to answer to the charges? i believe its unethical. I also just received a 1099 from the social security to pay taxes on the entire amount of money including what she got paid and I feel like this is highway robbery. Debrorah Spector knew I didn't fully understand her contract from the beginning and It's something that I questioned and when I questioned fees she went around in circles. Debra Spector had me sign some documents when I was really ill and I questioned them and Deborah Spector kept insisting that I had used her before in the past and nothing happened and that I can trust her and she was wrong? The previous case which is the original case, I was only charged $3,300 and now over $40,000 without no clarity. Debra Spector should be held to a higher standard and Debra knew I was vulnerable and weak and couldn't fight back and she took advantage of this situation at my expense. Debra Spector took. me for every penny she can get and only cared about her getting paid at the end. Debra asked a few times when she got ill that I sign a fee agreement with Justin Poh and other attorneys names listed on it and right before my last hearing she asked for it to be signed again, she said it was for her to get paid from the courts and she needed to submit these again because the case was so long. I was concerned again so I asked Debra Spector specifically if I owe any of them any money because I don't want to be responsible and she said no; she stated that the other attorneys work for her and they get paid through her. I trusted her and I was misrepresented here. When I used Deborah in the past I only dealt with her but she got Cancer things became complicated. I got different representation through her: Justin Poh and Initially in the beginning I didn't know what was going on when he took my case I couldn't even opt out because Spector and Lenz didn't inform me to the new representation until a few days before my hearing so I was stuck and we attended the hearing. Justin Poh represented me at my hearing and as a result of it, he costed me my case at that time because I lost; at that time he was new to that field and was lacking experience and I feel I wasn't fully represented and had no choice in backing out. In 2010 Deborah Spector represented me and charged me $3,129 and now it's over $40,000 and that's a big difference. I'm not sure why I am being charged over $40000 and how this can be fair that I get no bill, no explanation from social security? If you are seeking an attorney be carful and wise because this law firm was not ethical in the end it cost me and it can happen to you too. Sincerely Christine L Nankishore Please note that I am publicly asking for a receipt from you. You have not responded to any calls regarding a bill and I would like a bill for service for the 40,000.

For years, I was deceived into believing I wasn't eligible for benefits. Despite clear medical records showing my on-duty injuries, I was repeatedly stonewalled by bureaucratic processes and a legal framework designed to deny, deny, deny. By mid-2024, I faced yet another denial. Frustrated but determined, I started reaching out to attorneys. I spoke to a lot of them. For me, the right vibe and connection are essential--if the relationship doesn't feel right, I won't move forward. After all, attorneys get a portion of the back pay, so the decision has to feel good both professionally and personally. I passed on several other attorneys and ultimately chose Jim Comerford to represent me. And brothers and sisters, my life has been forever changed. Jim took me from a measly 10% for tinnitus to 80% and finally to 100% disability in an impressively short amount of time. The best part? Hearing Jim's personal passion for my case. As veterans, we're used to feeling like "just another number," but with Jim, it's different. His heart is truly focused on you. You'll feel it. You'll see it. If you're tired of being played by "the system," do yourself a favor and tag Jim Comerford into the ring. He'll fight for you like you deserve. Thank you, Jim, for giving me my life back.

I was devastated and had lost all hope. Mark reviewed all the details, the doctors notes, tests etc and shined some light on the situation for me. He then put together an amazing 7 page argument discrediting all the reasons the insurance company gave for terminating my benefits. Within weeks the decision was overturned and my benefits were reinstated!! I couldn't have done it without him. Mark truly cares about his clients and that was obvious from day one. He saved my family from losing everything and I am so thankful for him and all his hard work. I would highly recommend him to all.
